THE PROBLEM

Finding qualified wellness professionals is a time-consuming process that can take 1 to 4 weeks.

Finding qualified wellness professionals is a time-consuming process that can take 1 to 4 weeks.

It often relies on personal referrals, scattered information across social media, and slow communication, leading to uncertainty around pricing and, in many cases, dissatisfaction after hiring.

I performed quantitative research on NFA’s Instagram, where the audience is most engaged, collecting feedback on issues with the previous site and desired features for the new site.

Key findings:

• Users returned to Instagram for basic information because the site didn’t clearly centralize content.

• Lack of visual differentiation between tournaments caused confusion about which tournament was being accessed.

• Competitive benchmarking: I analyzed LCS, CBLOL, FFWS, and Liquipedia to understand how major leagues structure multi-tournament experiences and organize complex data accessibly.

63.6% don’t know the price before the first contact,

100% of drop-offs happen due to late price discovery, and the current process leads to post-hiring regret in approximately 40% of cases.
