Challenge

Create a fully integrated e-commerce site for the highly anticipated release of Windows Phone 7 release. Microsoft consultants provided wireframes and a style guide for the newly redesigned Microsoft Store.

Action

When roadblocks occur, work with the usability team to come up with a quick and affective alternative solution.

Resolution

Deliver a seamless experience for users and continue to update the Windows Phone 7 portal of the Microsoft Store with the originally requested functionality.
