WE HELP CREATE PRODUCTS 
that live At the intersection of
customer and business value 

How WE Can Help You

 

From the fuzzy front end to commercialization, we provide coaching and advisory services to product, marketing and executive teams.  We equally support early stage companies looking to scale and mature teams hoping to define and build new products and business models. We run individual coaching and can customize team workshops on the following:

​

  • Digital Transformation

  • Journey Mapping and Customer Discovery 

  • Customer Experience Design

  • Product Discovery 

  • Design Thinking & Innovation

  • New Product Development

  • Ideation and Roadmapping

  • Product Market Fit

  • Customer Analytics

  • Product Manager Coaching

  • Team Development

​

Our bias is for delighting the customer, and the best way to do that is by empowering product teams to navigate the ambiguity of the discovery process to create an inspiring product vision. 

​

LEARN FAST, FAIL FORWARD, ITERATE OFTEN

De-risking a new product idea is a noble goal, however, proof of success is not always easy to come by. For this reason we believe the best product teams understand the importance of rapid prototyping, rigorous testing and iterative design to hone a product hypothesis into a valuable customer solution.

What is the customer problem you are solving and does the product hypothesis address the need in a useful way?

Empathy rules.

  What ideas are spawned when diverse teams process insights?   Imagine insights becoming opportunities.

How do you communicate to customers what you envision so you can get quality feedback? Show the experience.
