Unlike programmers, most people don’t read long help articles or take multi-step actions. Bots can answer questions directly and take actions (or guide a user through step by step).
I’m so tired of social media rotting brains and ruining health and relationships. But also find it hard to completely quit Instagram/Linkedin/X as I get some value out of it. Sewer in the water line situation.
I worked at Noom and the most successful users weighed the ingredients. Many users were frustrated about not losing weight even with calorie deficit, but the issue was they weren't logging accurately or skipped logging snacks and meals that were clearly not good.
I have been thinking more of this problem recently. Excess phone use seems to be affecting vitality, presence, connection, sharpness, and happiness, with older adults too. Can you share any more insights on the problem or ideas?
Identify your target audience: In your case, it would be restaurant owners who struggle with keeping their menus up to date on delivery apps and online platforms.
Define your research objectives: Determine what specific information you want to gather through your market research. For example, you may want to understand the challenges restaurant owners face in updating their menus or their willingness to adopt a new solution.
Conduct competitor analysis: Research existing products or services that aim to solve similar problems for restaurant owners. Analyze their features, pricing, customer reviews, and overall market share.
Gather feedback from potential customers: Reach out to restaurant owners through surveys, interviews, or focus groups to gather insights about their pain points, needs, and preferences related to menu updates and online platforms.
Test your product concept: Create a prototype or mockup of your product idea and present it to potential customers for feedback. This will help you validate whether your solution meets their needs and if there is sufficient demand for it.
Analyze the data: Once you have collected data from your market research activities, analyze it to identify patterns, trends, and key insights that can guide the development of your product.
Refine your product strategy: Based on the findings from your market research, refine your product strategy by incorporating customer feedback and addressing any identified gaps or opportunities.
Remember that market research is an ongoing process that should continue throughout the development and launch of your product. Stay open-minded and adaptable as you gather insights from potential customers and make adjustments accordingly.
I largely agree with that, but with a couple of possible exceptions where it is relevant. 1) Some people bought cars or quit other jobs because Uber offered a much larger pay and bonuses two years ago. 2) Uber also killed the taxi industry, which offered better working conditions to drivers.
Not all comments are the same. Comments that are thoughtfully articulated and about the ideas rather than an unexplained character judgement of the author, detract from the discussion.
You shipped 6 months ahead, therefore your game is better than the larger incumbent - so keep playing the way you were. All incumbents eventually get beaten - why not by you?
Over a long enough timeframe, the better player always wins.
