[Weekly Retro] Undercooked
#50 - May.2024
Hi there!
💡 Here is a quick idea for the weekend:
Don’t ‘undercook’ your product.
Launching quick, small, fast iterations doesn’t mean releasing unfinished products.
In a world where speed is the new norm, we are now facing the rise of first-iteration products - Rabbit R1, and Humane AI Pin, to name a few - that feel far from being functional, lovable and memorable.
Being lean and learning from the experience of releasing a product should not be at the expense of overpromising and under delivering.
Customers who lose trust in your promise will not wait for your next iteration.
👨🏻💻 Concept I read about
Sean Ellis score:
“Sean Ellis Score is a metric used to measure customer satisfaction and loyalty to a product or service. At its core, the Sean Ellis Test is a single-question survey designed to gauge how many of your customers consider your product as must-have.
The question is: “How would you feel if you could no longer use [product]?”. The responses are: (1) Very disappointed, (2) Somewhat disappointed or (3) Not disappointed.
The goal is to reach a stage where at least 40% of your users would answer “Very disappointed” if they could no longer use your product. This is seen as a strong indicator that your product has achieved product/market fit.”
