Users often leave after short play sessions due to a lack of engaging elements, resulting in high churn rates.

The repetitive nature of the games, combined with a lack of visual interest and progression, causes players to lose motivation quickly.

Current game structures don’t offer enough incentives, leading to low retention and player satisfaction.

As the Design Head and Co-Founder of DesignOccult, a visual communication agency located in Goa, I have successfully led various projects across multiple design disciplines over the past four years. My work encompasses identity design, packaging design, editorial design, product design, web design, and comprehensive brand experience design. During my time at DesignOccult, I have collaborated with a wide array of clients, from startups to established businesses, leveraging my skills in visual communication to help them realize their objectives.

Delta Healthcare is revolutionizing the way medical institutions and educators access high-quality simulators, anatomy models, and task trainers in India. With a growing catalog of over 4,500+ specialized products, their core challenge was transitioning from a manual, quote-based process to a streamlined, scalable e-commerce platform.

As the sole product designer, I led the project from discovery to delivery — including user research, MVP creation, and the full e-commerce rollout. The goal was to serve both B2B and B2C users across India's healthcare and education ecosystem, while building a fast, scalable product that could be tested and refined post-launch.

Delta Healthcare’s previous platform relied heavily on offline interactions and manual quotations. This lack of transparency in pricing, poor product information, and the absence of user-specific dashboards led to low engagement, inefficient order cycles, and limited conversions.

We conducted a short but focused user survey to understand expectations and frustrations. Here is what we discovered:

We adopted a lean and iterative approach — building quickly, launching early, and refining based on feedback. No heavy frameworks; just pragmatic product design with real-world utility in mind.

Stage 1 — User Survey and Needs Assessment

To understand user needs and gather insights for the e-commerce platform, a user survey was conducted using a simple questionnaire.

Stage 2&nbsp;—&nbsp;Minimum Viable Product (MVP) Development

This stage focused on building a working MVP to showcase the product catalog and test real user engagement.

Stage 3&nbsp;—&nbsp;Fully Functional E-commerce Website

In the final stage, we focused on designing and developing a complete e-commerce platform.

Build a user-friendly interface with intuitive navigation
 Improve the purchasing experience, including the checkout flow and product detail views
 Integrate additional functionalities like PDFs, user dashboards, and scheduling tools 

🤝 5. Partner/Distributor Login &amp; Dashboard

📅 6. Product Demos &amp; Faculty Training

Designing for a niche, high-utility B2B/B2C product taught me the value of simplicity over complexity. We did not chase flashy features — instead, we focused on clarity, transparency, and speed-to-market. Close collaboration with sales and operational teams also helped shape a product that aligns well with internal business workflows.

Revamping Medical E-commerce in India

Working with Jeet has been one of the best parts of building DesignOccult. He’s an incredibly talented designer with a sharp eye for detail and a strong sense of what makes a brand truly stand out. What I’ve always admired about him is his ability to see the bigger picture while still obsessing over the smallest elements — nothing slips past him. His vision has shaped so much of what we’ve built together, and it’s been amazing to watch how his work consistently raises the bar, not just for our clients but for the whole team.
