Measurement

Traffic reached in 3 months

01 / The objective

The starting point

At PayFit the issue was not a lack of ideas but a bottleneck. The marketing team wanted to launch tools on the site regularly. The dev team was working on higher-priority pages. As a result, the tools stayed in the backlog and marketing was frustrated at not being able to move.

Project priorities

  • Launch tools without pulling the dev team into every project
  • Respect the frameworks and best practices the developers already use
  • Give marketing the means to publish this kind of tool on its own

02 / What we did

The decisions that made a difference

  1. 01

    A volume approach

    launch 3 tools at once, on the basis that at least one would work and serve as a base to iterate on.

  2. 02

    Processes and playbooks

    to build tools with the developers' frameworks and best practices.

  3. 03

    The 3 tools, from design to production

    • Employee cost simulator: total employer cost, net pay, breakdown of contributions
    • PayFit gains calculator: time and money saved with the solution
    • Working-hours calculator: hours, breaks and premiums per day
  4. 04

    Handover of the playbooks

    to the teams, so they launch the next tools themselves.

03 / Results

The key results

All 3 tools are in production, and the working-hours calculator reached 12,000 monthly visits within 3 months. Beyond traffic, the real result is organisational: marketing now has a process and playbooks to publish its own tools without blocking the dev team.

The takeaway

The project delivered both a tool that attracts visitors and a team equipped to launch the next ones. Lead generation is not quantified in this case.
