Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

13. THE COMPETITION (OVERVIEW)
true religion - is doing it right. No matter the platform,
every piece of content they put up feels like it’s coming from
the same place. Cohesive. They work with many curators,
contributors and bloggers. Everything finds it way back to the
brand and the feel – Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube
and Tumblr.
14. THE COMPETITION (OVERVIEW)
affliction - Their content pulls the brand together nicely.
It all revolves around living life fast. Truck and automobile
racing, mixed martial arts, and music. Facebook has some
original content that gets the likes. Good mix of storytelling,
promos, posts, and photos.
15. THE COMPETITION (OVERVIEW)
tapout - taps into the UFC community and never lets go.
They work a blog, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Considering
that this brand is centered around ultimate fighting, the con-
tent and communications feel very mediocre. Nothing stands
out. Tapout uses it all, but it needs work.
