Matthew Niederberger

My professional experience and goals are all online related with a main focus on creating actionable insights that will assist the business in generating more revenue and positively increase the customer’s overall experience.

It is my opinion that there is more to online optimization than just clickstream analysis and as a user experience manager it is in my and the company’s best interest to take a broader approach to finding and acting on revenue increasing opportunities through user centric design.

I believe in an agile approach. I believe in deploying lean methodologies in order to cut down on research and development costs and focus on finding the right mix between business objectives and customer experience which are intricately linked to increasing conversion and revenue.

“As a pragmatic user experience manager I enjoy assisting companies track, analyze and improve their online activities.”
