Layout Pattern
Case Study
Three-panel narrative of Challenge, Solution, and Impact. Turns a customer story into proof.
How to Use It
Case studies are the backbone of enterprise sales decks and customer marketing. Use a horizontal three-column structure labeled Challenge, Solution, Impact. Anchor the first column with a pain metric, the last with a result metric. Add the customer logo, a pull quote, and optionally a headshot. One customer per slide - resist the urge to cram multiple case studies together. The impact metric is the payload; make it the largest element.
