Improving engagement and conversion across a large-scale network

The challenge

Kia’s digital presence spanned 198 dealer websites, creating significant challenges in delivering a consistent and effective user experience at scale.

This fragmentation limited engagement and reduced the effectiveness of key conversion journeys.

  • Inconsistent experience across dealer sites  

  • Under-optimised conversion journeys  

  • Limited engagement across key touchpoints  

  • Difficulty scaling improvements across the network  

The challenge was to improve performance across all sites while maintaining consistency and scalability.
 

Approach

I led the optimisation of key journeys across the platform, focusing on increasing engagement and improving conversion performance at scale.

  • Analysed user behaviour to identify friction and opportunity areas  

  • Optimised key journeys, including test drive booking flows  

  • Introduced features to increase engagement and interaction  

  • Rolled out improvements consistently across the dealer network

 

The focus was on delivering measurable improvements while ensuring scalability across all sites.
