A fast, frugal education initiative that met user needs and laid the foundation for scalable product onboarding.
Context
In Fall 2023, user testing at Mylio revealed a key friction point: new users often felt overwhelmed after sign-up and weren’t reaching early product success milestones. Our existing help docs were too deep, and our onboarding messages assumed more technical fluency than many users had.
We needed to provide a focused, easy-to-digest orientation to help users succeed quickly—without increasing live support or requiring new engineering resources.
My Role
As Head of Marketing & Operations, I led the initiative to conceptualize, produce, and launch a self-serve onboarding education series within weeks, using internal resources and scalable tools.
Action
- Created the content strategy for a short-form training series aligned to product milestones
- Wrote the full script and produced the recordings in-house using Loom and Canva
- Built landing pages, email workflows, and SMS reminders using HubSpot and Intercom
- Launched the training to new users through lifecycle workflows and triggered messages
- Gathered feedback via click-through data, support interactions, and survey results to improve future iterations
Results
- Successfully launched on time with zero engineering dependency
- Became the most-used onboarding asset for new users within 30 days
- Increased early engagement touchpoints and reduced support volume on common questions
- Provided a flexible, repurposable content format for future education initiatives
