DISCOVERY: THE ISSUE AT HANDGAP

Kijiji reported a 12% decline YoY in new listing traffic and 7.7% decline YoY in total platform use as of Q4 2022, attributed to a lack of 1-1 relevancy across broadcast channels, stemming from discrepancies in implicit data collection.


Preliminary stakeholder interviews conducted with Kijiji's Product team uncovered the following variables responsible for impeding reach.

Cross-Channel Disparity

Siloed Email Permissions

Disjointed Control Hubs

Contextual relevancy through granular control of preferences

Facebook offers the ability to tailor contact strategy both by content type and delivery channel, mitigating notification fatigue.

Layered control mechanisms create operational shortcuts.

Clearly communicated binary changes of state

Whereas both radio button and checkbox selections are traditionally appended with additional confirmation interactions, toggles offer a streamlined, always-on approach to content management that operates at the speed of consumption.

As part of a redefined contact strategy, a unified preference centre serves a more holistic view of preference configurations across all delivery channels, providing at-a-glance accessibility to deeper, drill-down categories.

Additional affordances to opt-down (adjusting frequency and opt-out by channel) reduce churn and impart contextual relevance by offering increased ownership of content, alleviating notification fatigue.
