PRODUCT DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY ADVISORY

Whether product scoping, UX design, user testing or development oversight, we ensure a process that is agile and lean to help reach your desired state and product-market fit.

Product Strategy & Roadmap

A specific, customer problem-focused strategy leaves no room for ambiguity or confusion among your product team. Working on a product without a well-defined sense of direction and purpose leads to product goals that never get realized, a lowered sense of morale within the team who feels like they lack direction, and a waste of resources (misdirection inevitably results in creating the wrong things for the product).

The first battle in product strategy planning is defining all the elements that go into something like a product canvas. But the hardest battle comes in reinforcing it, ingraining it in the work philosophy of the product team, and in creating an unwavering conviction to stay in the path defined by said product strategy.

Product Concept Validation

At Very, we believe in de-risking projects at every turn. And one of the biggest risks of building a new product is that you'll build the wrong thing.

It's easy to pour months — or even years — into building something, only to realize that you can't make the business work. That's why we recommend that clients use this tried and true approach to validating a product concept.

Product Prototyping and Testing

Prototype testing is the process of testing your prototype with real users to validate design decisions before development starts. The goal is to identify problems and areas of improvement early so you can make the necessary changes prior to development and build a product that meets users' needs and expectations.

Prototype testing is an essential part of the design and product development process. The way you go about testing your prototype depends on the type of product, where you are in the development process, your goals, and the resources available. But here are some general steps to follow.
