Understanding Customer Needs
Gain Superior and Actionable Customer Insights

mini-customer-needs_adAre your standard customer research techniques - such as surveys, focus groups and meetings with customers falling short? Wish you could find out what the customer really needs, and not just what they think they want? 

In this PSN workshop, you will learn how to use qualitative research tools - observation and contextual interviewing - together on visits to customer sites to gain invaluable insights. These are powerful "field ethnography" tools especially when used in the early stages of developing products. You will know how to clarify and focus product concepts, and to uncover unexpected problems and their causes.
