Setting The Scene for You

Setting The Scene for You

Mahindra & Mahindra’s cars are everywhere in India. Their marketing team, though, was flying blind when it came to tracking how their showrooms performed online. Each outlet had its own Google Business Profile (GBP), and the data reviews, photos, queries, engagement lived in silos.


The CMO’s brief to us was simple:

“I want to see how Mahindra looks to the world from every showroom in under 30 seconds.”


That meant one unified dashboard that could track GBP health across hundreds of locations, without overwhelming the people managing it.

The Problems

The Problems

Data Overload

With hundreds of showroom locations, the marketing team struggled to track GBP health metrics without getting lost in layers of data.

Hierarchy-Specific Access

Different levels of the organization required varying degrees of access. A showroom manager should not see national data, while the CMO needed an overview of all locations at a glance.

Reporting Requirements

KPIs needed to be exportable in a format that could be easily shared across teams for strategic decisions.

My Approach

My Approach

Deep-Dive Interviews

User Interviews & Defining User

I spent time with the marketing team to understand their workflows, frustrations, and expectations. The common thread: data exists, but clarity doesn’t.

Designing for Data Limitations

The challenge wasn’t just how much data to show it was how to intelligently filter, segment, and present it based on role, location, and permissions.

Iterative Prototyping

Using rapid wireframes and interactive prototypes, we validated navigation flows, loading strategies, and access permissions before finalizing the design.

Role-Based Custom Views

  1. Different users see what matters to them based on login credentials.

  2. Showroom managers don’t see pan-India data, only their outlet.

Impact

The dashboard offers customizable reporting and analytics features, allowing clients to generate detailed insights tailored to their specific requirements.

National to Local Drill-down

  1. CMO sees a bird’s-eye KPI view of all showrooms across India.

  2. Click → drill down to state → city → specific showroom → GBP metrics.

Impact

Location specific hirechachy based filteration for the teams creating transparency and seamless experience for businesses

Custom KPI Filtering

  1. Data filters by region, state, city, salesperson.

  2. Every metric adapts to selection making it usable in under 30 seconds.

Impact

Get real-time insights into your social media performance. Track engagement metrics, audience demographics, and optimize your strategies with ease.
