Problem

Why users struggled with CWG CRM

Users found it difficult to complete everyday CRM tasks because the platform was complex and unintuitive. Key features were hard to locate, workflows required unnecessary steps, and the overall experience reduced confidence and long-term adoption.

The
Process

The process behind CWG CRM

Our CWG CRM redesign process focused on understanding how sales teams actually work and where they experienced friction in the platform. We combined user research, workflow analysis, and iterative design to create a CRM experience that was simpler, faster, and easier to use every day.

Research & Discovery

We explored how sales teams use CWG CRM, identified pain points, and uncovered the reasons behind low adoption and navigation issues.

Information Architecture

We restructured the platform to make essential features easier to find and improve the overall user journey.

UI Design & Prototyping

We designed a clean, intuitive interface, built interactive prototypes, and refined the experience through continuous feedback.

Testing & Handoff

We validated the new experience with users, resolved usability issues, and prepared a complete design system for development.

The
Visual Design

Visual Identity & Brand Story

The CWG CRM visual identity was designed to communicate clarity, efficiency, and trust. The interface uses a modern, clean design language that helps sales teams focus on managing customers and closing deals without unnecessary distractions. The primary color palette features red as the accent color to highlight key actions and drive attention, complemented by white backgrounds for clarity, light gray surfaces for structure, dark charcoal typography for readability, and subtle blue accents to reinforce important information and interactive elements. This combination creates a professional appearance while giving the platform a distinctive identity.

Typography is built around a clean, modern poopin typeface that ensures excellent readability across dashboards, reports, and mobile screens. A consistent spacing system, reusable components, and clear visual hierarchy create a seamless experience across every part of the CRM.

The visual identity extends beyond the interface to create a cohesive product experience. Every screen follows the same design principles, helping users recognize patterns, navigate confidently, and build trust in the platform. The result is a scalable, modern CRM experience that supports productivity while reinforcing the CWG brand.
