Amplifye: Internal B2B platform to launch campaigns at scale
Amplifye: Internal B2B platform to launch campaigns at scale



The campaign list gives managers a single view of all campaigns, their status, and readiness for launch
Every campaign felt like a fire drill: teams stitched together landing pages and webinars in spreadsheets, built emails in a separate tool, chased assets across drives, and pulled in engineers for every launch.
We designed Amplifye Portal as one place to build both on‑demand experiences and email campaigns — centralizing assets, enforcing controlled templates, and baking in staging so marketers can launch faster with fewer surprises.

Problem
Problem
Experiences (webinars, pages, chatbots, asset hubs) were specced in decks and docs, then handed off to engineers.
Emails were built in a separate tool with different templates, tracking, and constraints.
Assets lived in shared drives and Excel trackers; nobody was fully sure which version was “the one.”
Staging depended on ad‑hoc habits, so bugs often slipped into production.
The real risk wasn’t inefficiency, it was failed launches that delayed campaigns and drained engineering time.

Core UX Challenge
Core UX Challenge
The Problem: Email and experience builders were being developed in parallel. Fully unifying them early was risky while feedback was still evolving, but both campaign types needed a reliable workflow immediately.
Approach:
Unified Setup flow used for both email and experience campaigns.
Progressive disclosure (campaign details → audience → channel settings → preview & staging) to reduce cognitive load.
Controlled templates to prevent layout breakages.
Mandatory staging to catch issues before launch.
Outcome: Learn one builder, know both. Onboarding was reduced and engineering escalations dropped.

Early discussions revealed confusion around structure:
"What is a program vs an opportunity vs a campaign?"
"Why can't I get more customization?"
"Why can’t I freely edit templates at launch time?"
These questions surfaced a core tension: Users wanted speed and freedom, while the system needed safety and clarity.
