Findings
The Oola Guys wanted to create a website and an application that works together. So one of their primary user journeys was decided to start at the web page's enrollment and somehow finish at the application.
The Oola Guys consider The Mind Valley website and app as an indirect competitor. They like the page context described around the texts and the idea of a future structure like the one that mind valley has.
The Oola Guys want to focus the frontend development efforts on interactive and animations experience. Take a look at the websites listed before for references.
Oola had organic growth because they have a lot of domains with different initiatives.
There are no direct competitors. This Oola webpage is a unique product, but still, there are some opportunities on the main domain.
Some fixes over the google analytics code can help other services like Alexa or services that make comparative data activities to give real data for a deep understanding of the online users.
Oola hasn't opted for a paid media approach since the creation of its domains.
Since all the traffic is organic, there still some opportunities around SEO strategies, like compile all the information on one domain, and use all the organic or future paid effort for one website.
Taking a quick look at tools that measure the accessibility for people with disabilities, there were other fixes to make around the code to give a better experience.

Begining
I had to work in Miro and Figma, plus give some UX references to the client, because he wanted to be immersed in all the activities, so I created a plan:
We created 4 Personas
Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl and I Sketched a lot.
Let's see it as a lot of whiteboarding exercises with customer-centric and Design Thinking methodologies.
Some UX Flow Maps came up at this point.
Then some more Wireframing
to help them understand the importance of the Architecture of Information, the definition of a sitemap, a minimum task to complete for an MVP, also the importance of breakpoints and always mobile-first.
Then a Marketing Firm from Oola Side jump in.
We had an opportunity area there. A lack of digital experience from its Brand Department. So I started to suggest Digital style guides to add to its branding guides and arrange meetings with the Frontend Devs to align the Delivery. At some point, Oola Marketing took confidence and started crating HighFidelity and final screens. At this point, I give the project to another designer to finish the Delivery, always in the back, helping close gaps.
So here you have.
