How most people feel about investing


It is not their specialty
Have less than an hour to spend
Often is unpleasant and stressful


They want:
    Control over interactions
    Personalized next steps
    Easy access to expert help


                                    “I don’t like being channeled into a
                                    generic solution. I want options.”
The conundrum


We must first address the basics:
    How am I doing?
    What am I doing wrong?
    How can I fix it?

If don’t make this clear, people quit




                                        “I have no idea what that means…this
                                        is where I would quit and go to lunch.”
One size doesn’t fit all
                                     “I never read
                                       this stuff.”                 “Give me the levers
“I’m your customer, you                                           that I can control; show
 should know me. You                                                 me what happens
      guys are the                                                   when I pull them.”
   experts, so tell me
 what I need to know.”                                • WI Particip ant

A symbiotic relationship


Customers expect:
   To move seamlessly between
   online self-service and
   personal rep contact

Reps need:
   Smarter indicators of
                                 Self-                  Hire
   customers’ activities

                                           of the two
Do’s and Don’ts


Treat people like intelligent adults
   Value their time, lead with an
   answer (visualizations)
   Balance accuracy vs. simplicity
   Reveal the levers, show cause
   and effect
Provide hope & encouragement
Make it personalized, not canned
Make it easy to take action


                                       “Treat me like an adult, but don’t
                                       assume I speak your language.”

Notas do Editor

  1. I am responsible for the design of the planning and guidance that Fidelity provides to it’s customers. Much of this work has a focus on investing for a long-term goal like retirement.I only have 5 mins, so this is quick synopsis of we gleaned from volumes of research and direct customer interviews. It is focused on those customers seeking guidance from Fidelity. Many of the quotes you see are taken directly from recent customer focus groups.
  2. The key is that most peopleand not financial whizzes. Some have tried to save and failed in the past. They want to feel in control, it is their choice and the options are personalized. And they still want to know that expert help is there when they need it.
  3. It is amazing how many financial institutions don’t cover the basics. They jump to the complex.
  4. Two basic approaches, and we need to design for both.
  5. To wrap up…
