Step 1

Objective

Help TackOn grow its two-sided marketplace by driving app installs from both contractors and clients, and improving conversion through UX analysis and CRO recommendations.

Step 2

Target Persona

We focused on two main personas:

  • Contractors looking for fast, local job opportunities
  • Clients needing vetted service providers with minimal effort
Step 3

What We Did

User Acquisition:

  • 1,000 installs via Facebook
  • 1,200 installs via Google Ads
  • With a blended CPI well within performance benchmarks

UX and Funnel Audit

  • Conducted a full UX walkthrough and funnel review, focusing on onboarding, job posting, and profile completion flows.

CRO Recommendations:

  • Clearer CTA hierarchy to guide job posting
  • Social login implementation (Google, Apple) to reduce signup friction
  • Progress bars, smart defaults, and guided tooltips to improve task completion
  • Microcopy and trust indicators to reassure and onboard users more effectively
Step 4

Key Insights and Outcomes

  • Major drop-offs were identified in the welcome
  • login
  • and job posting flows
  • primarily due to unclear paths and friction-heavy screens
  • Suggested structural changes to simplify user decision-making post-login and reduce overwhelm
  • Highlighted missing event tracking that limited behavioral insight — emphasized the need for full event implementation to support ongoing optimization
  • Provided a clear roadmap for improving user engagement and activation across both user types
