The Challenge
A mid-market project management SaaS had strong feature parity with competitors but struggled with activation rates and user retention past the 30-day mark. Their product was visually polished but sonically silent - a missed opportunity in a daily-use workflow tool where micro-moments of delight drive habit formation.
The Solution
Audio Hooks Studio built a UI sound system aligned to the product's existing design language, including task completion chimes, notification tones, and error states. A short sonic logo was integrated into the onboarding sequence, and an ad cut package was delivered for performance video campaigns targeting their ICP on LinkedIn and YouTube.
The Results
Day-30 retention improved 14% in A/B tests with sound enabled versus muted. Onboarding completion rates increased 9% after the sonic logo was added to the welcome sequence. Ad recall on LinkedIn video campaigns outperformed category benchmarks by 23% using the branded audio ident.
