|
+
Can this opportunity achieve:
|
|
23
|
+
- **D (Delight)**: Surprise and exceed user expectations?
|
|
24
|
+
- **H (Hard to copy)**: Be difficult for competitors to replicate?
|
|
25
|
+
- **M (Margin-enhancing)**: Improve margins as scale grows?
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
If some market signals are unclear, look for directional signals:
|
|
28
|
+
- Macro trends (e.g., AI adoption creating workflow replacement opportunities)
|
|
29
|
+
- Behavioral shifts (users already using workarounds, indicating real demand)
|
|
30
|
+
- Analogous markets (find validated comparable scenarios)

## Team Passion Check
|
|
33
|
+
|
|
34
|

Confirm the team has genuine passion for this problem space. Teams lacking intrinsic motivation will inevitably falter on the path to PMF.

## Strategy Blocks (Chandra Janakiraman / Headspace / Meta)
|

|

|
|
10
|

The hierarchy of good strategy — each layer is the foundation for the next:
|
|
11
|
+
|
|
12
|
+
```
|
|
13
|
+
Mission
|
|
14
|
+
└→ Vision — What do you want the world to look like in 5-10 years?
|
|
15
|
+
└→ Strategy — How will you reach that vision? (Key choices and trade-offs)
|
|
16
|
+
└→ Goals / OKRs — Priorities for the next 6-12 months
|
|
17
|
+
└→ Roadmap — What specifically will you build?
|
|
18
|
+
└→ Tasks — Who does what, and when?
|
|

```

21
|
+
## Richard Rumelt's Kernel of Good Strategy
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+
- **Diagnosis**: Clearly define the challenge you face (not all problems — the most critical one)
|
|
24
|
+
- **Guiding Policy**: Your overall approach (not a goal, but a method)
|
|
25
|
+
- **Coherent Actions**: Specific actions that reinforce each other, not a collection of independent plans
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
> Signs of bad strategy: Grand goals without diagnosis; fancy language masking hollow thinking; calling every plan a "strategy."

## Shreyas Doshi's Three Levels of Product Work
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
Before tackling any product problem, identify which level you're working at:
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
```
|
|
34
|
+
Level 3: Product Excellence — Doing the right things exceptionally well
|
|
35
|
+
Level 2: Product Strategy — Doing the right things
|
|
36
|
+
Level 1: Product Foundation — Having the foundation to do things (culture, processes, talent)
|
|
37
|
+
```
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
> Most PMs spend too much time on Level 3 while neglecting Level 2 problems. Most so-called "execution problems" are actually strategy problems at their root.
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
## Shreyas Doshi's LNO Time Allocation Framework
|
|
42
|
+
|
|
43
|
+
For each week's work items, first ask: What type of impact does this have on the product?
|
|
44
|
+
|
|
45
|
+
```
|
|
46
|
+
L (Leverage): Strategy, vision, culture → Invest ample time, pursue excellence
|
|
47
|
+
N (Neutral): General collaboration, routine communication → Do it well, don't pursue perfection
|
|
48
|
+
O (Overhead): Admin, meetings, paperwork → Finish quickly, don't over-invest
|
|
49
|
+
```
|
|
50
|
+
|
|
51
|
+
> Redirect saved O-time into neglected L-work.
|
|
52
|
+
|
|
53
|
+
## OKR Writing Guidelines
|
|
54
|
+
|
|
55
|
+
Goals/OKRs in Strategy Blocks are the critical layer for cascading strategy downward. Minimum rules for writing good OKRs:
|
|
56
|
+
|
|
57
|
+
**Objective**: Qualitative, inspiring, understandable. Describe a state you want to achieve, not a to-do item.
|
|
58
|
+
- ✅ Good O: "Make new users feel the product's core value on day one"
|
|
59
|
+
- ❌ Bad O: "Complete onboarding redesign" (that's a task, not an objective)
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
**Key Results**: Quantitative, measurable, time-bound. Describe how you'll know you've achieved the objective.
|
|
62
|
+
- ✅ Good KR: "Increase new user D1 core action completion rate from 20% to 40%"
|
|
63
|
+
- ❌ Bad KR: "Launch new onboarding flow" (that's an output, not an outcome)
|
|
64
|
+
|
|
65
|
+
**Common pitfalls:**
|
|
66
|
+
- Disguising a task list as OKRs ("Complete feature X" is not a KR)
|
|
67
|
+
- Too many OKRs (aim for 2-3 Objectives per quarter, 3-5 KRs per Objective)
|
|
68
|
+
- KRs that contradict or are unrelated to each other
|
|
69
|
+
- Only lagging indicators, no leading indicators
|
|
70
|
+
|
|
71
|
+
**Example:**
|
|
72
|
+
```
|
|
73
|
+
O: Make target users love our product (PMF Level 2 → Level 3)
|
|
74
|
+
KR1: D28 retention from 12% → 20%
|
|
75
|
+
KR2: Sean Ellis Score from 28% → 40%
|
|
76
|
+
KR3: Monthly organic referral share from 10% → 25%
|
|
77
|
+
```
|
|
78
|
+
|
|
79
|
+
## Three Core Product Questions (Throughout the Entire Process)
|
|
80
|
+
|
|
81
|
+
These three questions must be answered in order — **the sequence cannot be swapped**:
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
> **Q1: How to get people in the front door?**
|
|
84
|
+
> **Q2: How to reach the Aha Moment as fast as possible?**
|
|
85
|
+
> **Q3: How to deliver core value repeatedly?**
|
|
86
|
+
|
|
87
|
+
In the Define stage, these translate to:
|
|
88
|
+
- **Who is it for?**
|
|
89
|
+
- **Why build it?**
|

## Continuous Discovery Habits (Teresa Torres)
|
|

|
+
|
|

Build one key habit: **Talk to at least one target user every week.** Discovery is not a one-time ritual — it's an ongoing system.

|
+
## 1.1 Build the Persona Table
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
Personas are not segmented by age and gender, but by **purpose / task / motivation** to distinguish different types of users.
|
|
12
|
+
|
|
13
|
+
```
|
|
14
|
+
| Field | Persona 1: [Nickname] | Persona 2: [Nickname] | Persona 3: [Nickname] |
|

|
+

|

| Problems / Challenges / Drivers | | | |

| Current Approach & Rationale | | | |

20
|
+
| Frequency | | | |

|
+
| Information Sources | | | |
|
|

+
| Adoption / Execution Barriers | | | |
|
|
23
|
+
```
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
Explain the segmentation logic; check for MECE (mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive); identify the primary TA and secondary TA.
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
### 📝 Persona Quality Checklist
|
|
28
|
+
- ✅ Is the segmentation based on "purpose/task/motivation" rather than demographics?
|
|
29
|
+
- ✅ Are Personas MECE (mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive of the target market)?
|
|
30
|
+
- ✅ Is the primary TA vs. secondary TA clearly identified?
|
|
31
|
+
- ✅ Are each Persona's "problems/challenges" based on real observations or reasonable inferences?
|
|
32
|
+
- ✅ Is "current approach & rationale" specific enough to identify workarounds?
|
|
33
|
+
- ❌ Common issues: Segmenting by age/gender, minimal differences between Personas, pain points too vague

[Target customer] + wants to, in [what job context] + get [what job] done
|
|

```
|
|

|
|

|

Example: A first-time homebuyer comparing mortgage options wants to quickly estimate monthly payments late at night when they can't reach a bank, so they can walk their partner through their financial plan.

| Emotional Job | How they feel or want to feel | | |
|
|
21
|
+
| Social Job | How they want to be perceived by others | | |

| Job Context | Under what circumstances they need to get this job done | | |
|
|

```
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
**JTBD Deep-Dive Five Questions:**
|
|
26
|
+
1. **Root Problem**: Behind what users express as their need, what are they really trying to solve?
|
|
27
|
+
2. **Current Constraints**: What solutions have been ruled out due to certain limitations?
|
|
28
|
+
3. **Current Workarounds**: How are users coping today? What workarounds have they built?
|
|
29
|
+
4. **Gap**: Where do current workarounds fall short? (This gap is your opportunity)
|
|
30
|
+
5. **Ideal Solution**: If constraints were removed, what would their ideal solution look like?
|
|
31
|
+
|
|
32
|
+
**Teresa Torres User Interview Best Practices:**
|
|
33
|
+
- Focus on users' **actual past behavior**, not hypothetical future behavior
|
|
34
|
+
- Ask "Last time you ran into this problem, what did you do?" instead of "What features would you like?"
|
|
35
|
+
- Most common mistakes: asking hypothetical questions, introducing solution bias, not probing for details

+
### 📝 JTBD Quality Checklist
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
Claude must self-check after producing JTBD output (each item must be marked ✅ or ❌; ❌ items must include how to improve):
|
|
40
|
+
- [ ] Does it include a specific context? (Not "anytime, anywhere" — but "late at night when they can't reach a bank")
|
|
41
|
+
- [ ] Does it focus on a single core job? (Not three jobs crammed into one sentence)
|
|
42
|
+
- [ ] Are functional, emotional, and social jobs all identified?
|
|
43
|
+
- [ ] Can it be used to evaluate "Does this solution actually address this job?"
|
|
44
|
+
- [ ] Does it include "current workarounds" and "gap"? (Gap = opportunity)
|
|
45
|
+
- [ ] Does Q5 of the Deep-Dive reach emotional motivation / professional identity / psychological fear? (Not just functional descriptions)
|
|
46

|
|
47
|
+
**Execution Rules (Hard Gate):**
|
|
48
|
+
- Must mark each item ✅ or ❌ — blank [ ] or unexplained ✅ lists are not allowed
|
|
49
|
+
- If all items are ✅, must additionally state "What is the weakest part of this analysis and how to strengthen it"
|
|
50
|
+
- ❌ Common issues: too abstract, too many jobs merged, missing context, substituting product features for job descriptions, Q5 staying at the functional level

### 🏢 B2B Product Deep-Dive Requirements
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
**B2B products (including B2B2C) must complete the following analysis:**
|
|
57
|
+
|
|
58
|
+
#### Organizational-Level Job Analysis (Required — cover at least 2 levels)
|
|
59
|
+
|
|
60
|
+
| Level | Description | Examples |
|
|
61
|
+
|-------|-------------|----------|
|
|
62
|
+
| **Strategic Job** | Cross-departmental needs at the org/management level | Compliance audits, cost control, workforce optimization |
|
|
63
|
+
| **Operational Job** | Coordination needs at the process/department manager level | Approval workflow management, cross-team information sync |
|
|
64
|
+
| **Task Job** | Day-to-day operational needs of individual users | Filling out forms, checking status, exporting reports |
|
|
65
|
+
|
|
66
|
+
#### Buyer vs. User Analysis (Required)
|
|
67
|
+
|
|
68
|
+
If the buyer and user are different people, analyze their JTBD separately:
|
|
69
|
+
- **Buyer Job**: Jobs that influence the purchasing decision (ROI justification, risk reduction, compliance requirements)
|
|
70
|
+
- **User Job**: Jobs that need to get done during daily operations (efficiency gains, error reduction)
|
|
71
|
+
- If they are the same person, explain "why the decision-maker is also the user in this scenario"
|
|
72
|
+
|
|
73
|
+
#### Deep-Dive Five Questions — B2B Enhanced Version
|
|
74
|
+
|
|
75
|
+
**Q5 must reach at least one of the following levels** (examples):
|
|
76
|
+
- ✅ Professional identity: "She's afraid of looking incompetent in front of leadership, because this report represents her department's credibility"
|
|
77
|
+
- ✅ Emotional motivation: "He wants to demonstrate to his direct reports that he has a firm grasp of the numbers"
|
|
78
|
+
- ✅ Psychological fear: "Her biggest fear is the auditor catching a process gap — she was already warned once before"
|
|
79
|
+
- ❌ Failing example: "He needs a better tool to improve efficiency" (stays at the functional level)
|
|
80
|
+
|
|
81
|
+
#### Competitive Alternatives Analysis (Required)
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
List the alternatives users are actually using today:
|
|
84
|
+
- At least 2 named existing tools (e.g., Slack / Excel / paper forms / email / verbal communication)
|
|
85
|
+
- For each tool, explain its "fundamental flaw": not that the features are weak, but "why this flaw has been accepted and left unsolved" (organizational inertia? switching costs? leadership doesn't care?)
|
|
86

### 📋 User Interview Plan Template
|
|
88
|
+
|
|
89
|
+
```
|
|
90
|
+
## User Interview Plan
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
**Research Goal**: Understand how [target Persona] deals with [specific problem] in [Job Context]
|
|
93
|
+
**Screening Criteria**:
|
|
94
|
+
- Must have experienced [specific behavior] within the past [X days/weeks]
|
|
95
|
+
- Exclude: [who is not a fit — e.g., internal employees, known power users]
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
**Core Questions (5–7)**:
|
|
98
|
+
1. Last time you ran into [problem], can you walk me through how you handled it? (Behavioral recall)
|
|
99
|
+
2. During that process, what was the most frustrating or time-consuming part? (Pain point identification)
|
|
100
|
+
3. Have you tried other approaches? Why or why not? (Current alternatives)
|
|
101
|
+
4. If that part could be better, what would "better" look like to you? (Ideal state)
|
|
102
|
+
5. How often does this happen? When was the last time? (Frequency and urgency)
|
|
103
|
+
6. Besides you, who else is affected by this problem? (Stakeholder mapping)
|
|
104
|
+
7. On a scale of 1–10, how severe is this problem for you? Why? (Quantifying the pain)
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
**Follow-up Strategies**:
|
|
107
|
+
- When the interviewee says "Usually I..." → Ask "What specifically happened last time?"
|
|
108
|
+
- When the interviewee mentions an emotion → Ask "Can you describe that feeling more specifically?"
|
|
109
|
+
- When the interviewee mentions a tool/method → Ask "What made you choose that approach?"
|
|
110
|
+
|
|
111
|
+
**Documentation Format**:
|
|
112
|
+
- Verbatim transcript or recording
|
|
113
|
+
- Within 24 hours post-interview, tag: key quotes / pain points / surprising findings / contradictions to assumptions
|
|
114
|
+

The OST starts from the product goal and systematically connects opportunities to solutions:
|
|

|
+
|
|
9
|
+
```
|
|
10
|
+
[Product Goal / Desired Outcome]
|
|

|
+
│
|
|

|
+
├── [Opportunity 1: User pain point or need]

|
|

```
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
Core principles:
|
|
22
|
+
- The goal (Outcome) is a measurable result, not a feature or output
|
|
23
|
+
- Opportunities come from user research, not internal brainstorming
|
|
24
|
+
- Solutions map to opportunities — don't skip opportunities and jump straight to solutions
|
|
25
|
+
- Go broad, then deep: list all opportunities first, then explore solutions one by one

## 2.2 April Dunford's Positioning Framework
|
|
23
|
+
|
|
24
|
+
**Applicable: Medium/high completeness / audience is executives/sales/marketing**
|
|
25
|
+
|
|
26
|
+
Positioning is not a tagline — it's deciding where you compete and for whom:
|
|
27
|
+
|
|
28
|
+
```
|
|
29
|
+
| Positioning Element | Question | Your Answer |
|
|
30
|
+
|---------------------|----------|-------------|
|
|
31
|
+
| Competitive Alternatives | If your product didn't exist, what would users use? (The real answer, not who you think your competitors are) | |
|
|
32
|
+
| Unique Attributes | What do you have that competitive alternatives don't? | |
|
|
33
|
+
| Value for Users | What tangible value do these unique attributes deliver to users? | |
|
|
34
|
+
| Target Market Characteristics | Which users care most about this value? (The more specific, the better) | |
|
|
35
|
+
| Market Category | What market frame best positions your product? (The frame determines the competitive criteria) | |
|
|
36
|
+
```
|
|
37
|
+
|
|
38
|
+
Most common positioning mistakes:
|
|
39
|
+
- Treating features as positioning ("We have AI!" is not positioning)
|
|
40
|
+
- Positioning too broadly — covering everyone means covering no one
|
|
41
|
+
- Using your perceived competitors as the reference rather than the user's actual alternatives
|
|
42
|
+
|
|
43
|
+
### 📝 Positioning Quality Checklist
|
|
44
|
+
- ✅ Are "competitive alternatives" from the user's perspective? (What users actually use instead, not who you think your competitors are)
|
|
45
|
+
- ✅ Are "unique attributes" things competitive alternatives can't do or can't do well? (Not things you both have)
|
|
46
|
+
- ✅ Is "value for users" stated in user language or product language? ("Saves 2 hours" vs. "AI-powered automation")
|
|
47
|
+
- ✅ Is the "target market" specific enough to actually find these people?
|
|
48
|
+
- ✅ Are all five positioning elements logically consistent?
|
|
49
|
+
- ❌ Common issues: Disconnect between unique attributes and value, wrong market category leading to being judged by wrong criteria

## 2.3 HMW (How Might We) Problem Reframing
|
|
52
|
+
|
|
53
|
+
Transform pain points into HMW questions, combining the JTBD lens to confirm the job type behind each HMW:
|
|
54
|
+
|
|
55
|
+
```
|
|
56
|
+
| Pain Point # | Pain Point | Corresponding JTBD Type | HMW Question |
|
|
57
|
+
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
58
|
+
| P1 | [Pain point description] | Functional / Emotional / Social | How might we... |
|
|
59
|
+
| P2 | [Pain point description] | | How might we... |
|
|
60
|
+
```
|
|
61
|
+
|
|
62
|
+
HMW granularity principle:
|
|
63
|
+
- Too broad ("How to make users happier") → No direction
|
|
64
|
+
- Just right ("How to let users complete first-time setup in 60 seconds") → Constrained yet open
|
|
65
|
+
- Too narrow ("How to change the button color") → Limits possibilities
|
|
66
|
+
|
|
67
|
+
### 📝 HMW Quality Checklist
|
|
68
|
+
- ✅ Does it have clear constraints? (Not completely open-ended)
|
|
69
|
+
- ✅ Does it leave enough room for multiple solutions? (Not pointing to a single answer)
|
|
70
|
+
- ✅ Can it be directly mapped to a JTBD or pain point?
|
|
71
|
+
- ✅ Can the team start brainstorming solutions upon seeing this HMW?
|
|
72
|
+
- ❌ Common issues: Too broad (restates the vision), too narrow (specifies the solution), multiple problems mixed together
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
**Examples:**
|
|
75
|
+
- ❌ Too broad: "How might we make users more satisfied?"
|
|
76
|
+
- ✅ Just right: "How might we help first-time homebuyers calculate their affordable mortgage amount in 3 minutes?"
|
|
77
|
+
- ❌ Too narrow: "How might we add a mortgage calculator to the homepage?"
|
|

+
|
|
81
|

Prioritize HMW questions:
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|

```
|
|
84
|
+
| HMW Question | Affected Persona | Persona Size | User Impact (1-5) | Business Value (1-5) | Feasibility (1-5) | Total | Priority |

**Scoring Scale Definitions:**
|
|
90
|
+
|
|
91
|
+
| Score | User Impact | Business Value | Feasibility |
|
|
92
|
+
|-------|-----------|---------------|-------------|
|
|
93
|
+
| 1 | Minor inconvenience for few users | Indirect, long-term payoff at best | Requires entirely new technology or extensive R&D |
|
|
94
|
+
| 2 | Some users encounter occasionally | May indirectly move some metrics | Requires significant new capability building (3+ months) |
|
|
95
|
+
| 3 | Core TA encounters regularly | Positive impact on key metrics | Requires some new development but technically feasible (1-3 months) |
|
|
96
|
+
| 4 | Many users encounter frequently | Directly drives user growth or retention | Within current team capabilities, 2-4 weeks |
|
|
97
|
+
| 5 | Many users can't complete core tasks daily | Directly drives revenue or significantly impacts North Star Metric | Current team can complete within two weeks |

**Shreyas Doshi's Opportunity Cost Thinking:**
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
Don't ask "What's the ROI of this feature?" Instead, ask:
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
> "If I invest resources in A, I'm giving up the opportunity to invest in B. Am I sure A is more worthwhile than B?"
|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
ROI thinking evaluates whether a single opportunity is worth pursuing; opportunity cost thinking helps you make better choices across all opportunities.
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
**0-to-1 Focus Reminder:** After completing the opportunity assessment, it's recommended to pick **only one top-priority HMW question** as the MVP core. (Facebook: college students → high schoolers → everyone; profile page → photos → news feed)
