MATCO TOOLS DISTRICT MANAGER MEETING
Matco Tools has a manager assigned to each distributor, and the manager conducts an in-person meeting with the distributors. During this meeting, the attending distributors are provided with access to the website where they can purchase tools at a discounted price. Additionally, payment plans are offered to them as an option.

MY ROLE
SR. UI/UX DESIGNER. I was the only designer who worked on the entire project. I designed both the web and mobile views.
THE PROBLEM
Whenever the district manager holds a meeting for the distributors, the attending distributors are offered a discount on products and given the option to pay in 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks. However, the entire ordering process is not digitalized, and is currently done manually through an excel sheet. The district manager collects orders from the distributors by having them fill out an excel sheet.
THE APPROACH
The plan is to digitize the entire ordering process by designing a web and mobile platform on Figma. This will enable the distributors who attended the district manager meetings to place their orders on the web instead of using an Excel sheet.
TARGET AUDIENCE
All Matco Tools distributors.
RESEARCH
I conducted research interviews with Matco Tools distributors and district managers to gather information about their experience attending district manager meetings.
INTERVIEW QUESTIONS
1. “How often do you attend the district manager meeting?”
2. What is your average spending when attending district manager meetings?
3. “What challenges do you face when attending a district manager meeting?”
4. What functions would you recommend for the website in preparation for the new website for the district manager meeting?
IMPORTANT FEADBACK FROM INTERVIEWS
1. How often do you attend the district manager meeting?
2. Distributors and district managers expressed a desire for the new website to be easily accessible on both web and mobile devices.
3. The district managers have expressed their desire to have a feature that allows them to approve or deny any purchases made by certain distributors. This is because these purchases are meant only for the distributors who attend the meeting in person.
4. Be able to order products online before or during the DM meeting
5. Be able to see the amount of discount in product card and in product display page
