Overview
The Early Bird Books Sign-up page is where users can subscribe to get the newsletter to get ebook deals every day. The page also has an option to sign up for other ORIM-owned brands. Because of the shifting priorities, I was asked to redesign the page in one day. I realized while evaluating the design that, needed to be able to sign up through other email services, or be able to sign in to their existing account. The Early Bird Books brand needs to stand out from competitors. I was able to turn around the design promptly on short notice.

Problem
Users struggle to sign up for the Early Bird Books newsletters, so they need multiple ways to sign up for the newsletter.




Research Constraints
User is familiar with the layout, and it must remain the same. I was limited by time and budget, so I looked other similar sites to gain insights.
