And we, as workers in this specialty, unfortunately spend a lot of time breaking down barriers and educating about our function. But let&#8217;s be honest: We sometimes forget that the UX and UI must be <strong>useful<\/strong> and have <strong>added value<\/strong> for the customer.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, it is the <strong>profitability<\/strong> of the UX and its <em>Return on Investment (ROI)<\/em> that encourage customers to call on us again to invest in a project.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcodesign.com\/1669283\/dollars-and-sense-the-business-case-for-investing-in-ui-design\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Did you know that every dollar invested in UI earns you from $2 to $100 in return on investment?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is how I came up with the idea of writing a series of articles on <strong>UX in the service of online sales<\/strong> .
