background
since 2018, 7-ELEVEN has launched a complex store that includes different types of makeup, fitness, coffee, reading, etc., and continues to be the leader of the convenience store chain in Taiwan. However, it was surpassed by FamilyMart which was ranked initially second because of the COVID-19 pandemic‘s impact. That interested me and I began to explore opportunities in the post-pandemic.
7-ELEVEN從2018年開始推出包含了美妝、健身、咖啡、閱讀等不同型態的複合店型，持續穩坐台灣連鎖超商龍頭。但面對疫情的衝擊，在2020年被原本位居第二的全家超商超越，這也引起我的興趣，開始探索在後疫情時代下的機會點。

搜集 7-ELEVEN 企業相關資訊與疫情下具潛力的領域進行分析，以探索在後疫情時代的新機會點。
7-ELEVEN has been a leading convenience store chain in Taiwan for 42 years and keeps building a community center model. However, it was surpassed by FamilyMart which was ranked initially second, because of two things in 2020. First of all, 7-ELEVEN Group’s investment in the Philippines was unable to open stores due to the impact of the epidemic, and its profits declined. In addition, in the battle of digital transformation, FamilyMart let everyone fall behind and took the lead, and the membership app was the first to reach over 10,000 users milestone, the stock price also surpassed 7-ELEVEN in one fell swoop on August 21, 2020.
during the COVID-19 pandemic, 7-ELEVEN members still contributed a considerable amount of revenue even though the market consumption is sluggish. How to find a way that is different from FamilMart has become the key issue for the future of development.
since the rise of personal awareness and social media platforms have become popular, people's demand for appearance has also increased. The body, hairstyle, and clothing accessories have become the main medium for expressing their own self-identity.
during the COVID-19 pandemic, wearing face masks has become our daily routine, many people are more willing to spend money on their hair styling because masks cover most faces instead. There is a saying that "Hair is the second face of every person", which also shows that the hair industry has great potential for the future.
7-ELEVEN 統一超商當了 42年的台灣連鎖超商龍頭，持續打造社區生活中心的模式。然而在2020年因為2件事，被原本位居第二的連鎖超商全家超越。首先，上半年 7-11 集團在菲律賓的投資，因為疫情影響無法開店，獲利衰退；另外，在數位轉型之戰中，全家讓大家跌破眼鏡，率先掌握先機，會員App率先達到破千萬用戶的里程碑，股價也在2020年8月21日一舉超越7-11。
而疫情之下，即使市場消費低迷，7-11的會員仍貢獻了相當多的營收。如何走出有別於全家的路，成為了未來發展的關鍵。
隨著個人意識抬頭、社群平台的普及，現代人對外型的關注與需求也隨之增加，我們肉眼可見的身體、髮型、服裝配件，都成為發出訊息與創造身份的主要媒介。
而在疫情的影響下，外出配戴口罩成了日常，口罩遮住了大部分的臉孔。許多人轉而更願意花錢在頭髮造型上，更有「頭髮是你的第二張臉」的說法，這也指出美髮產業將掀起一波巨大的商機。

what i learned & challeges
>> explore new perspective and interview skills 探索新觀點與訪談技巧
learned how to interview people who have different personalities, set a clear goal, and avoid asking suggestive questions to make them feel reassured to get a more valuable answer. the process of organizing the interviews and finding new insights makes me feel motivated and passionate.
訪談與整理心智圖是我很感興趣的階段。學習如何在不同個性的受訪者中掌握訪問節奏、盡可能避免問到非開放或暗示性的問題、讓受訪者感到安心而能夠暢所欲言。整理訪談內容、依序排列、觀察與思考，最後輸出一個新的觀點，像這樣能夠挖掘出意想不到的結果的階段，讓我感覺充滿熱情。
>> the challenge of future design 未來設計的挑戰
since this project is a future design, making zero to one product is the biggest challenge for me as a beginner in UX, but it also gives me more space to explore new insights, and expand my imagination.
因為這是個未來設計，沒有現成的產品可以參照，對於UX的初學者來說是一個很大的挑戰。但同時這也使我擁有更多空間與自由，根據洞察觀點來放進更多想像力，開發新的功能。
>> prototyping 原型製作
i have referenced products in different fields to conceive, learned how to make interface design clear, and try different types of visual that matches the target audience. At this stage, I spent the most time figuring out the user’s feelings, whether they would feel bored and give up, or if they successfully got good feedback and were willing to move on to the next page, making the screen as smooth as possible.
我參考了很多不同領域的產品來構思，學習如何讓介面資訊層級清楚、嘗試設計與目標群眾相符的視覺風格。在這個階段，我花了最多時間去揣摩使用者的感受，是否會感到無聊而放棄，或是成功帶來好的回饋而願意繼續點擊前進，盡可能的讓畫面流暢。
