Hi! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my class.
I come from Silicon Valley where I was part of three startups: one went public, one was acquired by eBay, and one crashed and burned hard. So I have seen all sides of growing and building a product (some less fun than others...)
Currently, I am an independent product advisor and coach. I help large companies and entrepreneurs launch and scale their business ideas.
I have delivered over 100 workshops and run accelerator programs for entrepreneurs and intrapraneurs. I also work 1:1 with teams who bring me in when they are stuck.
I have advised many of the world’s leading organizations on growth and profitability strategies. After receiving my MBA from The Harvard Business School, I worked at BCG before jumping into the start-up world.
01
Fall In Love With The Problem:
Why do products fail? Many reasons, but at the core is the product didn't solve a big enough customer problem. We start by better understanding the problem by talking to customers. In this module, you will get to know your customers: Know how to define and prioritize them, and how to talk to the user in an effective way to uncover pain point points
02
And really get to know your customers:
Customers hire your product to perform a task, to do a job. They don't want your features, they want to get what they need to get done. Learn how to use Jobs to Be Done (JBTD) and the Value Proposition Canvas (VPC) to hone in on which aspect of the problem you should be focused on solving.
03
Generating and validating ideas
We want to build products that are
* Valuable: Solves a true customer problem
* Usable: Great design that customers can easily use
* Feasible: A technology that we can build
* Viable: Creates a sustainable and profitable business.
We’ll cover practical techniques to quickly test your ideas in the wild with customers.
04
Translate Insights into Product Features
Use customer insights to develop outcome-based product roadmaps. Prioritize product features and functionality based on customer needs and business objectives. Use customer feedback to continuously iterate and improve product design.
