  • #E24 Most important aspects of Digital Product execution effort estimates

    Regardless of how would you execute delivery of your digital product, inhouse or by contracting, the value of estimating delivery efforts is essential to the two most influential parameters to your business - time and money. Additionally, estimated cloud hosting costs for dev, UAT and production environments are good to have, as well as minimum expected support engagement if the product requires such an effort. I keep stating that planning is everything. Project management methodology, as agile and as lean as it gets, should not influence the fact that there must be solid metrics against execution of a digital product. Even when contracting a team on TnM basis, expectations should be set for at least the next delivery iteration.

  • #E23 Turn Technical Documentation into a Valuable Supplement of your Product Development Routine

    In today's agile and lean tech world where everything is actioned on the go and everything is instant, my 12-milestone process sounds like an unnecessary overhead, while preparation of technical documentation could be called madness. For that reason, let's turn Technical Documentation into a valuable supplement rather than a boring overhead in your Product Development routine.

  • #E22 Ten ways to prevent your software project from failure — and there’s much more in stake too

    It all starts with poor product and project planning, and it all adds up with poor business and marketing planning on top. Project must be planned by a joint effort of all parties involved. To generalize things: business, marketing, product and project owners (managers, heads, however you call it in your world).


    I intentionally used the term “software” in the title, but this is all the same to any digital product project: mobile apps, games, Web solutions, blockchain and crypto, AR/VR, IoT, wearables, emerging tech, etc…

  • #E21 Consider these 3 monetization plans for your new app

    How do you make a decision on the exact model for monetization of your app? I spoke about generating monetization potential for your app in my Episode #9, then about different monetization models in Episode #10. Now, I am taking a real life example of Ivan Agency use case app and giving you real insight into how I made a decision of what monetization principle to apply to this product. Using a real life example you will much better and so much easier grasp how to make a decision yourself for your own digital product.

  • #E20 Some thoughts on app subscription models

    I have started working on Phase 2 of our use case app - MeetMe@. This is the Phase where I will introduce Monetization model. This is a change of hearth to the original plans of pay-once / use-always model. The reasoning behind this is simply as I want users to use the app on need to need basis, and I do not want the raising business model to die off when it reaches all the people it can reach.

  • #E19 My use case app is now live - delivered in budget, as scheduled, as planned!

    Two months ago I have recored my first episode about MeetMe@ app. Since that moment I had been working on concepting the app as per my 12-milestone process. The app is now live, and is delivered exactly as planned - in time, in budget, in tinniest detail! My product and project management teams have planned out delivery while my design and development teams had delivered the app exactly as planned.


    My 12-milestone process focuses on all aspects of the product, not only from design and tech perspective but also from the business perspective, and following my 12-milestone process the MeetMe@ app has reached 3.5k pre-orders on the App store in two months only. First day has resulted in over 17k sessions which produced only 4 bugs! What a high quality delivery - I am honored to work with such an amazing team of designers and developers at https://enginee.rs/.

  • My use case MeetMe@ app is about to go live!
    Exactly as I stated months ago - nothing changed - going live as planned:
    Running across London from one meeting to another, I tend to avoid offices and meet my clients and prospects at various locations across the city - I find it more inspiring, motivational and comfortable for casual, yet, serious discussion. But, even meeting in offices does not change purpose of the idea.
    Idea is to build an app, for both Android and iOS phones, with a core purpose to lead two (or more) people to meet at a specified spot at a specified time. I want one person to initiate a meeting in a simplest way possible, where main action is to choose where the meeting will take place. Additionally, user can choose time when the meeting will start, and a third option to name the meeting. Action is instant, there is no scheduling in advance, rather initiate a meeting and enter the process, with ability to leave the process and return back to it at will. There is no turn by turn navigation, meeting spot is only a point on map.
    What I want the focus to be on is simplicity and, most importantly, I want users to stay anonymous. I do not want anything to be stored that may in any way compromise user’s privacy. Each meeting has a unique URL, where anyone with URL can join the “process” of a meeting. Therefore, any number of people can be in the “process”. There is no registration nor social connections between people through functionality. Everyone is related as long as they are in the process, once they leave it, all connections between all people in process are gone.
    A “process” is functionality that consists of a “live” map where the meeting point will be shown on map as well as all people who joined the meeting with their current live location. While registration is needed, but users should have an option to enter their name and upload their profile photo. Otherwise, they will be assigned a generic name and a randomly colored silhouette.

  • #E17 Learn how wireframing can ensure your investment and delivery of your digital product

    Power of wireframes is in details. Experience has taught me not to leave any details to interpretation or free will of a developer. Don’t think this is something against developers, on contrary, this is only in their benefit, as if everything is chewed up to the tiniest detail, all they have to do is to do their work with the most quality and not do your work. Therefore, you optimize the effort of all parties involved into delivery of the product.

  • #E16 Define sub-products that empower your main digital product

    Sub-products are software solutions that primarily provide interface to data, data analytics, business intelligence and content management for the main digital product. Sub-products simply must exist, some may be 3rd party solutions, some may be custom solutions, while same may be a mix of both. Sub-products give means to run business with intelligence and to make knowledgeable business decisions.

    Let’s explore one of each options from the most simple perspective in order to explain the point in simplistic terms.
