project background.

Legacy Wealth is a financial services platform specializing in real estate and wealth management solutions. The company wanted to modernize its digital presence to better serve two key audiences—clients seeking clear, trustworthy financial guidance and agents managing complex workflows. Prior to this project, clients faced overwhelming financial jargon and unclear pathways to connect with advisors, while agents lacked streamlined tools to manage client relationships effectively. To address these challenges, we designed a cohesive digital ecosystem consisting of a website to build trust and educate clients, and a mobile app to empower agents with intuitive, time-saving tools.

the problem.

Legacy Wealth’s existing digital experience lacked clarity and efficiency for both clients and agents. Clients found financial services overwhelming and struggled to understand how to take actionable steps toward their goals. Meanwhile, agents faced fragmented workflows, making it difficult to manage client data, track progress, and deliver timely support. This disconnect created barriers to trust, engagement, and operational efficiency, highlighting the need for a unified solution that simplifies client interactions while empowering agents with better tools.

the solution.

We designed a cohesive digital ecosystem consisting of a client-focused website and an agent-focused mobile app to address both sides of the experience. The website simplifies complex financial services through clear messaging, intuitive navigation, and trust-building visuals, guiding clients to connect with advisors confidently. The mobile app equips agents with streamlined tools to manage client relationships, track performance, and access key insights on the go. Together, these solutions create a seamless experience that improves client engagement, enhances agent productivity, and strengthens overall trust in the Legacy Wealth brand.

my design process

Blue Background

We began by conducting stakeholder interviews, user surveys, and competitive analysis to fully understand the needs of both clients and agents. Clients expressed that financial services often felt intimidating due to complex jargon and unclear pathways, while agents struggled with fragmented workflows and time-consuming manual processes. These insights shaped the foundation of our design strategy, ensuring we addressed pain points for both audiences.

Using the research insights, we created user personas, journey maps, and a clear information architecture for both the website and mobile app. The focus was on simplifying navigation, presenting information in a more approachable way for clients, and designing intuitive workflows that improved agent efficiency. This stage ensured the overall experience was both user-friendly and goal-oriented.

We translated the information architecture into low-fidelity wireframes to validate user flows and layouts early in the process. From there, we developed interactive prototypes in Figma, allowing stakeholders and users to visualize the experience before development. Early usability testing at this stage helped identify areas for improvement before moving into high-fidelity designs.

Building on the Legacy Wealth brand, we crafted a premium yet approachable design system for both platforms. The website focused on trust-building visuals, clear typography, and inviting layouts, while the mobile app featured a clean and efficient interface optimized for agents on the go. The goal was to maintain a cohesive visual identity across both touchpoints while catering to their unique audiences.

Finally, we tested the high-fidelity prototypes with both clients and agents to validate ease of use, clarity, and efficiency. Feedback revealed small but meaningful improvements, such as simplifying terminology for clients and adding quick-access shortcuts for agents. We iterated on the designs to ensure both solutions delivered a seamless, intuitive experience tailored to user needs.

Based on the User Research, we created a more accurate persona for our ideal user based on the current users that exist for the app and website.
