FAQ list
You can work in different industries: health, travel, productivity, and fitness.
Each industry has unique concepts.
In fitness, there are concepts like training to fail or the keto diet.
In productivity, there are concepts like ADHD or Pomodoro.
You’ll find yourself researching some of these concepts when working on a project. You have to understand how people do things. That way, you can make a design decision.
This means two things.
One. You have to be good at Googling. Or ask good questions to AI.
Two. You have to collect that information and organize it. It can become complex. So here’s the trick: Make the FAQ list. Structure it in this simple format: question then answer. Here’s an example.
How do people download this app when we launch it?
Since we’re targeting the existing users, we will send them an email. In addition, we will make an announcement on our website. We will evaluate the % of users downloaded our app.
Some questions you might want to ask:
What is (product name)?
Why will this excite customers?
Who can access this, and who can’t?
How do we measure success on this project?
How will we onboard new users?
So, make this list next time you’re doing your desk research. So you don’t get overwhelmed. Always come back to it and add more knowledge.
PS. I’m opening the first Product Design Fundamentals workshop. This is great if you want to learn the basics, and it is for people who want to switch careers to Product Design.
