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

2. A corporation is a company that is a
separate legal entity owned by
stockholders. In other words, the
corporation functions like a single person
separate from its owners (stockholders).
Thus, the stockholders have limited
liability, (the investment
in the stock they own).
3. Common stock represents ownership in a
corporation. When you buy common stock, you
are buying the corporation's factories,
buildings, and products. Common stock is sold
in shares. Each share of common stock
represents the basic unit of ownership of the
corporation.
4. Stock is like a Pizza,
each share of stock
represents an equal
piece of the pie
(company).
Shares
5. Price appreciation
occurs when you
sell your stock for
more than you paid
for the stock.
Dividends are
the portion of a
corporation’s
profit that is
paid to
shareholders.
6. As the company grows, your
piece of the pie grows as well.
If the company is successful and
grows by 25%, the value of your
shares will grow as well.
7. Dividends are paid out of a
corporation's profit after taxes have
been paid. The corporation can,
however, retain part of the profit
and reinvest it in the corporation.
This portion is known as retained
earnings and it is frequently used
for research and development or
expansion. A corporation doesn't
have to pay dividends.
8. Dividends do not even have to be paid with
money. The board of directors can elect to
issue stock dividends. When this is done,
the current stockholders would receive more
shares of the corporation's stock rather than
cash.
9. When investors
sell stocks for
more than they
paid, the profit
made from the
sale is the
investor's
capital gain.
When a stock
sells for less
than the
investor paid for
it, the investor
suffers a capital
loss.
10. The money an investor uses to buy
stocks is called equity capital. Because
you can make or lose money through
investments, you must determine the
amount of money that you can afford to
lose without harming your standard of
living. The amount of money an investor
can afford to lose is called risk capital,
and that is the amount that should be
invested. Remember, invest only what
you can afford to lose.
11. Corporations may be classified in many ways.
If stock is available for purchase by the
public, it is an open corporation. The
corporation is required by law to disclose its
financial condition. Most large corporations
are open corporations.
A closed corporation is one whose stock is
not available to outsiders, it does not issue
stock to the public and is not required to
disclose publicly its financial condition.
12. All corporations must issue stock. The state
issuing the Articles of Incorporation authorizes
the number of shares a corporation can issue.
That number represents all the shares a
corporation can issue without going back to the
state and requesting that the state allow more
shares to be issued.
13. These are the shares of stock that the
company has sold (issued). The issued shares
represent ownership. Authorized but not
issued are held for future sales to raise funds
(capital) for future growth.
14. When a company wants to go public, or to be
traded on stock exchanges, it must meet some
strict standards.
The New York Stock Exchange (you don’t start here)
A pre-tax income of $2.5 million for the previous
year or $2.0 million a year for two previous years
Net tangible assets of $18 million
Two thousand shareholders who each have 100 or
more shares
At least 1.1 million publicly held shares
Outstanding shares with a value of $18 million
15. An annual report is a financial report
issued to stockholders at the end of
each operating year. An annual report
will present the financial condition of
the corporation, the names of the board
of directors, the location and date of
the next stockholder's annual meeting,
an auditor's report verifying the
authenticity of the financial data, and
the shareholder's letter.
16. The balance sheet lists the corporation's
assets and liabilities. (What they own less
what they owe)
The income statement lists the revenue
(income), expenses, and profit or loss for the
year. (How much money did they make)
A stockholder can get a good idea of the
financial condition of a corporation from
analyzing the balance sheet and the income
statement. Some corporations will even
include a five-year financial summary.
20. The Securities and Exchange Commission is a
watchdog agency. It helps to protect the
investor by enforcing federal laws pertaining
to the stock market. The SEC monitors
securities, stock exchanges, corporate
reporting, investment firms, stockbrokers,
and public utility holding companies.
21. Authorized shares are the shares a
corporation is allowed to issue.
Issued shares are the shares actually
issued and sold to investors.
Shares repurchased by a corpora-tion are
called treasury shares, or treasury stock.
Shares purchased by stockholders are
called outstanding shares, shares standing
out in the hands of the public.
22. The market value of a stock is the price
people are willing to pay for the stock at
present. The market value is determined by
the demand for the corporation's stock.
The book value of a corporation is equal to
its total assets minus its total liabilities.
(Balance Sheet)
23. When stock is issued to the public
for the first time by a corporation,
it is called a primary distribution.
(IPO) The company is purchased
by an investment bank and they
sell shares to investors.
After the primary distribution of
stock, all subsequent sales of the
stock take place in secondary
markets (for example, the New
York Stock Exchange or the Over-
the-Counter Market).
24. People who buy stocks are stockholders.
When either preferred or common stocks are
purchased, the stockholder receives a stock
certificate.
26. A security exchange, commonly called
a stock exchange, is a non-profit
organization that provides facilities
for its members to buy and sell
securities.
The members of a stock exchange are
brokers who buy memberships (called
seats) so that they may use the
exchange. Only members can trade on
the floor of the exchange.
27. The nation's largest stock exchange is the
New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) located
in New York City. The American Stock
Exchange (AMEX), also located in New
York City, is the nation's second largest
exchange. There are also smaller regional
exchanges, such as the Pacific, Midwest,
Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and Boston
exchanges.
In addition to exchanges based in the
United States, there are also various
international exchanges, such as those
located in Tokyo, London, Frankfurt,
Zurich, Paris, Milan, Amsterdam,
Stockholm, Brussels, Sydney, Hong Kong,
Singapore, and Toronto.
28. A stock exchange is very similar to
a large swap meet or flea market.
According to legend, it originated
in 1792 when businessmen met
under a buttonwood tree on Wall
Street and signed an agreement
that they would trade stocks. A
company's name was called out and
bids on that company's stock were
exchanged. Eventually the
exchange moved indoors and
became known as the New York
Stock Exchange (also referred to as
the Big Board).
29. An investor who wishes to buy
stock will most likely place an
order with a stockbroker. A
stockbroker is an agent licensed
by the SEC to buy and sell
securities for clients.
A stockbroker who works for a
full-service brokerage firm
provides research information,
suggests investment strategies,
and offers advice on market
conditions.
30. A stockbroker who passes a very
com-prehensive securities test known as the
"Series 7 Exam" is called a registered
representative.
A stockbroker receives a commission based
on the total dollar volume of each order. The
commission rate varies with each brokerage
firm.
31. Discount brokerage firms are an
alternative to paying the full
price commis-sions that full-
service brokerage firms charge
investors.
Discount brokerage firms often
offer no advice or consultation
about investing; they simply
execute a client's orders.
32. Three of the common types
of stock orders are market
orders (spot orders), limit
orders, and stop loss
orders.
33. A market order is an order to
buy or sell a stock at the best
price possible.
The broker will execute the
investor's instructions at
whatever price the trade
demands on that day.
Most orders are market
orders and are carried
out the same day.
34. A limit order is an order to a
broker to buy or sell shares
at a specific price no
greater than a specific
amount.
A limit order is not executed
unless the stock market
price reaches the limit the
investor has set.
35. A stop loss order is an
order to a broker to
sell a stock if the
price drops to a
predetermined level.
This limits the
investor's losses or
guarantees a certain
profit.
36. When an order is placed with a
stockbroker, the investor also
must tell the stockbroker how
long that order should stand.
A day order tells the stockbroker
to fill the order that day. At the
end of the day, the order is
cancelled.
A good 'til cancelled (GTC) order
stands until it is filled or until
the investor cancels it.
37. Stock orders are generally
placed in increments
called round lots. A round
lot is a multiple of 100
(100, 200, 300, 400, etc.)
shares.
An odd lot is a number of
shares that is not a
multiple of 100, such as 50
shares or 322 shares.
39. The Dow Jones Industrial
Average (DJIA), often called
the Dow, is an index of 30
major corporate stocks listed
on the New York Stock
Exchange.
40.
41. Another major index is
the Standard and Poor's
500 Stock Index. This
index of 500 key stocks
also deals with
corporations listed on
other exchanges and is a
much broader based
index than the Dow Jones
Industrial Average.
42. A company risk is a risk that affects
the stock prices of one company or
industry. Demand for a product is a
company risk. If a company's
product or service is in high
demand, the price of its stocks will
generally rise. If a company's
product or service is not in demand,
the price of its stocks will generally
fall.
43. Rules

5 Stock max in a portfolio
3 trades per week (5 first week to load)
Stocks must sell for $5.00 or more
Stocks must be bought in 25 share increments

$50,000 limit, your purchase will be canceled
and it will cost you $100.00)
44. The group that accumulates the
most profits will get a 10 point
boost to the last nine week’s
grade.
Second Place will get 5 points to
the last nine weeks.
Last place gets a deduction of 5
points
(just kidding)
