Tray Table Mockup Maker - Image 1

Overview

A self-service digital mockup tool that enables brands and advertisers to visualize their advertisements on aircraft tray tables before committing to placements. After the mockup is created, an automated email is sent featuring a PDF of the mockup and company details for follow up. The mockup and client information is saved in a database for follow up on leads.

Why was it built?

  • Advertisers lacked an easy way to preview their branding on aircraft.
  • Clients required customization tools to preview designs.
  • The company wanted a self-service tool to reduce manual design requests.

How was it built?

It was developed using a combination of Next.js framework with TypeScript, Python, and Django framework. The database is localized using SQLite, and a custom user dashboard was built for the Django admin interface to facilitate content management.

What did I do?

  • Defined the product roadmap and prioritized features based on user needs.
  • Defined product scope, wireframes, and core functionalities.
  • Ensured the platform was intuitive & user-friendly, enabling advertisers to create branding previews without design expertise.
  • Conducted market research & competitor analysis to ensure alignment with industry standards.
  • Worked closely with the sales team to integrate the tool into their sales process, enhancing customer engagement.

Results

  • Enabled self-service visualization, reducing design request time by 50%.
  • Increased customer engagement, leading to faster deal closures.
  • Reduced workload for the internal design team by 40%, freeing them for high-value creative work.
