In the process of building a product, the product team refines their ideas by deeply understanding real user problems and then landing on the best way to solve them. We might call it product discovery. We have decided to talk about it in this week’s Edition!

Adopted from Sophia Heofling’s on Medium:https://medium.com/@sophiahoefling

The process of product discovery is important. It helps teams build products that are vital to their customers, not simply nice to have.

A necessary product is one that solves such a deep and genuine need for the customer that they feel unable to live without it.

Product Discovery, as stated above, is about understanding what kind of solution is needed. It’s about understanding clients and their needs. It’s also about addressing their pains and creating value for them.

Product Delivery, on the other hand, is about building the solution figured out in the discovery process, with scrum methodology for example. It’s about bringing it to clients, seeing their reaction, and building on it with future releases.

UXR: "I'm stuck..." Me: "OK. Take the UX out of your title. Just go with Product Discovery and Research. Yes, you know you've been doing it all along, but they don't." UXR: "Wait, how did you know?" Me: "It is the rule of product reinvention. Product reinvents everything"
