Listen Later

Learn from Corey Maass, the go-to on WordPress product design topics, and Cory Miller, a master on the business of WordPress. They discuss finding the balance in the small and big pictures of product development, highlighting the process of trial and error.

Top Takeaways

  • Courage Under Fire. After what feels like a miserable failure, it’s vital to keep trudging forward. Great product design takes time to build and grow in the space you are putting it into. Keeping your passion alive and remaining consistent in your efforts will eventually lead you to success.
  • The Impact of Thoughtful Design. Developing a product is of course based on meeting some kind of user need, but it’s important to consider if you are really going to make that user’s life easier with your product. When the end user is your top priority, your product will shine, and you’ll be proud of the direct impact you made in someone’s everyday life.
  • Finding the Spark in Your Product. Focusing on the overall product journey is key for great product development, but zooming in on the minor details is also just as important. Brainstorming and finding the spark is not easy, but it is crucial to set your product apart from the rest.
  • Using Your Audience to Improve Development. Put your ideas and questions out there for your audience to speak to. If you are wondering how people will perceive a certain product aspect or want more information on what their exact pain points are, it’s good to directly ask. Getting information straight from your customers or peers can help you make well-informed decisions in product development.
