@ a glance
Product Box
Product Box:
let’s you leverage your customer’s collective consumer experience
let’s you discover how your customers/users think/prioritize features
gives you an idea of what your customer/users want to “hear” from your
product/service
Product box in Agile
is used for release planning based on what customers/users
believe that is more important
can be used to further produce user stories
13. 4th Prod.Active Meetup: Innovattion Games - Product BoxIasonas Antonopoulos
How it is played
Product Box
1. Participants are divided into multiple teams
2. Participants create a product box of the product/service that they will want to buy
and not just any box but a box that “represents” that product
3. Each team is given a blank chart paper wrapped box and stationary and is asked
to efficiently utilize the box outer surface to sell/market a produce/service they are
currently developing/ planning to develop/ using /or will use
4. Time-box the product box creation/decoration activity to 20-40 min
(tip: the lesser the time, the faster the brain imagines!!)
5. Once all teams are finished product boxes are ready, one representative
markets/tries to sell the product to the audience (rest of the teams) by explaining
all that is illustrated on the box.
6. Once all product box demonstrations are finished, all participants vote for the best
product box excluding their own product box.
7. The Product box with the maximum votes wins!!

Why it works
Product Box
Product Box
helps customers/users to deep dive into their needs and express them while trying to
form/sell/market their Product Box
provides valuable and revealing observations from customer interactions
(remember they’re trying to sell to you and all other customers)
helps product teams since customer focus on benefits not features (even if feature is
written, marketing and sales will be beneficial)
limited printing space and forces feature selection prioritization on a must have basis
What is necessary to succeed
speed, open mindedness
collaborative work (if teams want to form on their own let them)
for products targeting international markets, it should be played those countries to
capture the different cultures
