Kano analysis review and discussion with agile austin product sig 2014Scott Sehlhorst
Scott Sehlhorst presented on using Kano analysis for product management. Kano analysis classifies product features and customer needs into categories like must-have, performance, and excitement based on customer preferences. It can help product managers understand what problems their target personas care about and how competitors are addressing them. Managers can map their current solution and roadmap against Kano categories to ensure they are focusing on the right problems and opportunities for customer delight.

This presentation discusses the kitchen and bath remodeling process from the initial consultation through completion. It outlines the key stages including designing plans and selecting products, demolition, mechanical work, installation, and finishing touches. The process is described as an "emotional roller coaster ride" for homeowners. Charts are provided showing the estimated time spent on each stage and emphasizing the importance of communication with customers throughout the project to manage expectations and address concerns. Photos illustrate examples of remodeling work.
The document discusses achieving product/market fit. It defines product/market fit as having an offering that matches customer needs at a scale that can be delivered profitably. Achieving product/market fit is important because most startups fail due to not understanding customer needs. The key to product/market fit is repeatedly testing hypotheses about customers and needs before running out of money. This involves clarifying assumptions, identifying risks, understanding customers without solutions, testing solutions, and repeating. The goal is to continuously advance understanding of what customers want.
1. The document discusses key metrics for growth including retention, magic moments, and user bucket analysis.
2. It provides examples of magic moments for various companies like Twitter, Facebook, and Airbnb and recommends focusing on retention as the most important metric.
3. User bucket analysis is introduced as a way to analyze user engagement by dividing users into curious, casual, and core buckets to understand how to improve retention.
The document discusses Cubie Messenger, a messaging app co-founded by Feng Yanwen. It provides tips for building a successful consumer internet product, including targeting the consumer market, focusing on growth before monetization, understanding users through data analysis, and differentiating the product rather than competing on features alone. The document also shares insights from Cubie's user behavior data and highlights the importance of an exceptional outcome.
This document discusses growth strategies for startups. It recommends focusing on retention metrics like 2nd day, 2nd week, and 2nd month retention rates as well as daily active users to monthly active users. Tactics discussed include setting a "north star" key metric to optimize for like messages sent or nights booked, identifying "magic moments" that drive engagement, using user accounting to understand new vs. resurrected vs. churned users, and testing virality through metrics like the k-factor. It emphasizes taking a data-driven approach, continuously testing changes, and optimizing for core business flows and features.

The Importance of Innovation and TransparencyScott Sehlhorst
Transparency in understanding your market and communicating that understanding throughout the development process is key to creating innovative products. Innovative product creation requires teams today, so transparency of market needs and expectations is critical to success.
Top reasons that cause failure of productsGreat Lakes
The document discusses common reasons why products fail, including: 1) Timing issues like launching at the wrong time, as with the Ford Edsel launched post-recession when consumers wanted smaller, cheaper cars. 2) Targeting the wrong market, such as McDonald's trying to appeal to more sophisticated urban customers instead of its base. 3) Fixing things that weren't broken, like New Coke which changed Coke's successful formula without understanding customer passion for the original. The document also discusses challenges with unclear product development responsibility and the importance of customer focus over just product focus in development.
Reasons for Failure of new products in the consumer good industryUsamah Billah
This document summarizes a research article that investigates the key reasons for new product failure in the consumer goods industry. The researcher conducted interviews with corporate managers in Pakistan and the Middle East to identify the most significant causes of failure. Based on literature review, the researcher determined that low consumer marketing investment, weak positioning, low quality, and weak distribution are the main independent variables that positively correlate with the dependent variable of new product failure. The researcher aims to study the impact of these variables and provide recommendations to help companies avoid failures when launching new products.
1. Frito-Lay introduced WOW! chips in the late 1990s which contained Olean, a fat substitute that allowed the chips to have no fat but similar taste to regular chips.
2. Complaints from consumers about side effects from Olean led to falling sales of WOW! chips and an eventual ban in some areas.
3. Possible countermeasures discussed to boost WOW! chip sales included highlighting the health benefits, narrowing the target market, and using celebrity endorsements to influence opinion leaders.
This document discusses several famous product failures in industries like automobiles and electronics. It lists failures like the Sinclair C5, Ford Edsel, Betamax video, DeLorean, New Coke, and McDonald's Arch Deluxe. The reasons for these failures included a lack of customer sales, high competition, high research and development costs, poor word of mouth about the products, short product life cycles, being late to market, and the products being easy to copy or lacking a unique selling point.
Amazon's Fire Phone failed due to entering an established smartphone market late without superior technology to attract customers from Apple and Android. It also had limited app selection and a flashy 3D interface that reviewers found underwhelming. Burger King's Satisfries were marketed as healthier but actually had more calories than regular fries and cost more, so customers were not aware of their alleged benefit. Google Glass was discontinued because its design was bulky and distracting, it was prone to breaking, and processing all its functions would require too large a battery and data usage. Omung Lassi failed because people usually make lassi at home, doubted the freshness of packaged lassi, it did not properly target its market
This document discusses reasons for product failures and lists the top 10 failed products. It then provides general causes for product failure, including faulty conception of ideas, unsatisfactory design or production facilities, insufficient marketing, higher than estimated costs, and producers being ignorant of consumer preferences. It concludes by suggesting ways to avoid new product failures such as effective listening, engagement, powerful software to connect stakeholders, and requirements analysis metrics.
This document contains a marketing skills matrix to help determine the required skills of a marketing team and identify any gaps. The matrix lists marketing skills across three levels - low, medium, and high - for both strategic and tactical skill types. A second page allows documentation of any current gaps in the marketing team's skills.

Dove body wash was initially unsuccessful in India when launched in 2004. It was more expensive than competitors like Lux and Palmolive, and Indians prioritized face skincare over body care. Dove then customized their marketing mix - they reformulated the product to include exfoliating beads and moisturizing ingredients appealing to Indian consumers. They maintained price but expanded distribution and used extensive promotion through TV, print ads, billboards and product sampling to target youth in major cities and change perceptions of beauty. This revamped approach helped revive Dove body wash's performance in the Indian market.
This document discusses factors that contribute to product success and failure. It provides examples of successful products like Maruti Swift, Parx clothing brand, Nokia N-series phones, Tata Docomo, Surf Excel detergent, Parachute coconut oil, Gillette razors, Bata shoes, and Coca-Cola. Examples of failed products discussed include New Coke, Microsoft TV, Colgate kitchen entrees, and Harley Davidson perfume. The document emphasizes the importance of understanding customer needs, benefits, positioning, competitive advantages, and other marketing mix elements in ensuring product success.
The document summarizes several management tools including affinity diagrams, interrelationship diagrams, tree diagrams, matrix diagrams, and prioritization matrices. It provides definitions and examples of how each tool can be used to structure brainstorming, analyze relationships between factors, break processes down into detailed levels, compare relationships between groups, and prioritize items according to weighted criteria. The tools are designed to help simplify complex problems, structure thinking, and improve decision making.
The most important thing a product manager will do is develop an understanding of their market. The second most important thing they will do is form a strategy for their product, given that understanding. The third most important thing is to communicate to the rest of the team what needs to be done, to implement that strategy, to win in that market.

The second most important thing they will do is form a strategy for their product, given that understanding. The third most important thing is to communicate to the rest of the team what needs to be done, to implement that strategy, to win in that market.
That's why we write requirements - to communicate what needs to be built, as part of an approach to meeting the needs of a market. The rules of writing requirements help us communicate more effectively when writing requirements. Pretty narrow scope, pretty powerful impact.

The document discusses driving interest and leads through understanding the buyer's journey. It outlines five laws of attraction for marketers: be attractive, be generous, be found, be visible, and be social. It emphasizes educating buyers through generous content and using various social media platforms to engage buyers at different stages of their journey. The overall message is that marketing should focus on attracting and educating buyers, rather than directly selling to them.
From Project to Product: Leaders, Here's What It Means to YouCprime
Project to product is all the rage these days. You, your boss, or your company are already talking about this. Heck, your group has been "agile" for years now, but this next phase seems to just be a repackaging of that.
In this webinar, Anne Steiner, Chief Product Coach at Cprime, gets into Project to Product from the leader's perspective. We explore "why we should care" and "what this really means". Then, we deep dive into the following keys to leadership success in driving this change:
1) Your help, involvement, and willingness to influence change is critical. Team-level change isn't enough and will yield limited benefits.
2) You need more than just engineering/IT buy-in to be successful. It takes the whole enterprise.
3) Product management is a thing. We'll learn what it is, how it is different from project management, and why it is critical to market domination and product success.
Lastly, we'll leave you with some tips for success that will guide you in driving change whether you sit at the manager, director, VP, or C-level.
Change How You Do Product - by Tal Ben-Simon (ProductX 2018)Tal Ben-Simon
Presented on stage at the "ProductX 2018" conference.
We, product people, are usually trying to change or redesign our product.
But there’s a point in time, when you need to reorganize the structure and redefine the workflow of your Product-R&D teams and potentially the entire company.
- Why and when to make a change?
- How should this sensitive change be made?
- What is the product manager’s role in leading this change?
I will share the story of the profound changes (which are still being) made in eToro, a fast growing FinTech startup with more than 500 employees…

Overcoming the Barriers To Building Great ProductsMike Chowla
Every product manager wants to build a great product but few achieve competitive advantage by creating a better product. This presentation looks at what makes a great product and the barriers to creating them.
How big businesses can innovate like start ups through IntrapreneurshipMike Allen
Innovation is hard! Necessary, but hard. The number one reason why organisations fail at innovation is generally the organisation. Culture, systems, processes and behaviours can be the greatest inhibitor. Intrapreneurship (the pursuit of intrapreneurial behaviours but within the corporate setting) is an approach that allows organisations to exploit the creativity and talents within their organisation whilst in side-stepping the barriers.

Using your UX Super Powers for Good or Evil - Theo Mandel, PhDTheo Mandel, PhD
Using your UX Super Powers for Good or Evil - Theo Mandel, PhD, UXPA 2015 Conference.
Updated presentation on User Experience Design - from Golden Rules and Patterns, to Persuasive Design, to Evil Design and Dark Patterns.
Please share your comments, questions and examples of good vs. evil UX design. It's a great topic for discussion!
This document summarizes a presentation given by Theo Mandel on using UX design powers for good or evil. Mandel discusses how UX design can be used persuasively through techniques like reducing cognitive load and increasing consistency, but also warns about "dark patterns" that use deception. He provides examples of both persuasive design practices that help users as well as "evil" designs like hidden costs and tricks to keep users from canceling subscriptions. The presentation emphasizes the importance of using design for good by being transparent and having the user's interests in mind.
This document discusses leading team effectiveness. It describes various types of problems that can arise in work teams, such as quality, delays, personnel issues, and planning problems. It outlines a seven-step process for solving problems, including defining the problem, determining the cause, setting goals for the solution, brainstorming options, selecting an option, implementing it, and following up. The document also discusses signs of conflict, how to respond to conflict through listening and empathy, and techniques for supporting the team like meetings, open discussion, and implementing problem-solving strategies such as brainstorming and reaching consensus.

There’s no way around it — any design system project comes with disagreement and spirited debate. Because a design system serves not just many products, but also many stakeholders, from designers and engineers, to marketers and content strategists. Each product team and each discipline brings a unique set of goals and perspectives, and often they’re at odds. These disagreements, if left unresolved, can K.O. your design system before it even gets started. I know, because it’s happened to me. The good news is — it doesn’t need to be this hard. Through my successes and failures building design systems, I’ve uncovered some strategies you can use to keep your team moving forward in harmony. You’ll leave this talk with an understanding of the following: - How to document governance processes to help your team answer the most polarizing questions surrounding design systems, such as when to use an existing component vs create a new component. - How to involve stakeholders across your organization, without stalling your design system or falling victim to design by committee. - How to define your design system team’s roles and responsibilities, as well as how others can contribute to the system.
The document discusses the lean startup methodology for validating business hypotheses through customer development and pivoting. It emphasizes that startups should explicitly test their business assumptions by getting customer feedback on problems, solutions, and business models, rather than assuming their ideas are correct. If problems arise, startups should pivot one element and test again rather than persisting blindly with their initial plan. The lean startup process helps companies find a working business model more quickly through a scientific approach of iterative experimentation and adaptation based on customer input.
