interviews
A collection of articles on conducting Jobs-to-be-done purchase interviews...
You’ve heard about how there’s a kind of purchase interviews that stands out from the pack.
A kind of interview that, when done properly, dispenses with the confirmation bias and the noise and gets answers to the questions:
- What caused my buyers to pull out their credit card and give us money?
- What initiated their search?
- What is my product really competing with?
- What were people using before using my product? What were they switching away from and why was that alternative no longer doing the job?
And, more zoomed in:
- What were the forces that caused them to act at each point, go forward, hesitate, go back, struggle with something, get back on the tracks?
- For what jobs did those buyers “hire” my product? What was the delta, the before and after, the enough-is-enough, the aspiration, the struggling situation that urgently needed movement and momentum?
So that you can:
- Decide on which features you can drop from your product or from your marketing;
- Decide the kind of copy you’ll use on your marketing pages;
- Decide what to prioritize on the next version of your product;
- Help influence the people on your team about where to go next with the product.
