How to Design a Process for Occasional Users

To design a process for occasional users, assume they remember nothing. Someone submitting a request twice a year is a first-time user every time.

What frequent-user design gets wrong

The builder uses it daily and designs for themselves.

Field labels meaningful only to the team
No explanation of what a field means
Assumed knowledge of which option applies
A form that a daily user finds efficient and a rare one finds opaque

What occasional users need

Need	How to meet it
An obvious starting point	A home page with the right apps
Plain labels	Their language, not the team's
Explanation in place	An embedded video or note
Fewer choices	Conditionals hiding what does not apply
Status visibility	So they do not need to ask

How to set it up in Jestor

Configure the home page in Jestor so occasional users land on what they need.
Write field labels in their language rather than the team's.
Embed a short explanatory video where a field needs context.
Use conditionals so each person sees only the relevant questions.
Let them see their own request status, so they do not have to ask.

Why choose Jestor for infrequent users?

Jestor allows videos and other content to be embedded directly into forms, which means an explanation lives where the question is rather than in a document nobody opens.

Because the home page is configurable per role, the occasional user's starting point can be different from the daily user's without building a second system.

Yes, an embedded video or note. See jestor.com.
