‍But tools are just the instruments for the UX designers. The knowledge of the design tools are as important as the creation of the design strategy. The first stage is the creation of the UX strategy. A strategic planning process takes into account not only the goals of the business but also the needs of the real consumers of the brand and connects each customer touchpoint with a user experience that the company intends to create.

The article covers the essentials, challenges, myths and stages the UX designer should consider while creating the design strategy.
