Google for Retail Partners

Content and UX Strategy, UX Design, Production, Copy

The Retail team approached Brand Studio when we were revamping the Retail Ads Marketing sites to include a partners site. I worked with the 5 different retail groups to establish and define the different products and services each of the partners provided as well as how to categorize them between groups.

Cross linking component placed throughout the Retail sites environment to the Google for Retail Partners site.

Where she really shone was managing multiple stakeholders to eek out the information we needed for content. She also has an editor’s eye and often caught things everyone else missed. In the end the sites looked gorgeous and performed beautifully. I’m really proud of the work we did together.

I worked together with Nadine on the launch of Google’s Certified Publishing Partner program. Nadine did a great job on especially two key aspects; 1) she was able to lead a large group of complex stakeholders in several orgs to work together towards a common result and 2) she “got things done” not only on time but beyond expectations. Furthermore, despite never having worked with Nadine before the project, she very quickly managed to find a workflow and modus operandi that felt very natural and efficient for all of us. Lastly, Nadine was an extremely valuable source of knowledge and know-how, whom I took (and still trying to take) great inspiration from. I highly recommend Nadine for any similar role.
