Notas do Editor
- It ’ s not just about format. It ’ s about the construction of your whole product.
- This can all sound like a bit process heavy, structured and business like. The good news is that you do get to be creative. The bad new is you only get to be creative twice! And the whole point of product development is to constrain creativity but to do that by focusing it on the right problems and given it a space to work in .
- This is the most important part of the whole process. Write it up in capital letters stick it in your project room and never ever forget it. You should try to answer the question not only overall but also for every project.
- You can also use simple techniques like principles or goals. Ideally you should do this at the whole organisation level and then for this product.
- NB the only publishers who have been really successful is because they have leverage their print brands to drive digital subscriptions.
- The guy who threw a mouse into the fire and it ran out and burnt down the house. One of the most popular stories on the BBC ever. It still gets traffic. Now if the BBC can do that with a story that is meant to last 24hrs or a week what can you do with content
- The importance of distinguishing between the end user and the person you ’ re marketing to.
- A number of other techniques you can use here to look at what the opporutnities are but the most important things is to talk directly to the people you are targeting.
- Amazon have a great way of doing this called a product statement. The write up a sales pitch for it as they ’ ve described it to a customer.
- The outcome of this process is that you choose the one that is most likely to deliver against your what you set out to achieve and you ’ re pretty sure you can do it.
