During 8 years, I played a pivotal role in a strategic agency for Ford Brazil, where I led a comprehensive redesign of the purchasing journey, redefined the customer channel ecosystem, and spearheaded the launch of Ford’s e-commerce platform in Brazil. This article delves into the project’s objectives, results, and my role in driving its success.

For this specific project, Our mission was to redesign Ford Brazil’s purchasing journey, enhance the customer channel ecosystem, and introduce Ford’s e-commerce platform to the Brazilian market. This ambitious project aimed to improve user experience and streamline the buying process for Ford customers.

In our quest to enhance the purchasing journey for Ford Brazil, we recognized the importance of cultivating a strong user-centered culture within both the internal agency and the Ford team. By prioritizing user needs and preferences, we aimed to drive innovation and create meaningful experiences. This foundation enabled us to successfully launch key initiatives, including an internal Lead Management platform that streamlined collaboration with dealers and the phased rollout of the Offers Platform, designed to provide end-users with an exceptional experience.

Building a User-Centered Team: My initial role involved assembling a dedicated team and advocating for user-centered design principles. This foundational work took two years, during which I integrated into strategic decision-making and established a collaborative dialogue.

Redesigning the Lead Management System: We undertook a significant overhaul of Ford’s lead management system. This project involved optimizing campaign strategies, refining lead handling processes, and enhancing follow-up practices.
