Prioritizing Product Needs

First, we spoke with stakeholders and product users to identify pain points and prioritize needs. Key redesign priorities included:

  • taxonomy
  • navigation
  • content organization
  • advanced search
  • security
  • personalization
  • mobile delivery.

Branding and Visual Design

After an extensive information architecture phase, our attention turned to branding and visual design.

We conducted market research to recommend how Tax Analysts might restructure their segmented brand to better distinguish Tax Analysts (the non-profit organization) from its flagship product, Tax Notes.

Tax Analysts introduced its new website taxnotes.com (built on the Drupal platform), a news service and website dedicated to comprehensive and impartial news coverage. Tax Notes subscribers visit for daily news, while the greater community can visit TaxAnalysts.org to learn more about their impactful work.
