Founder, AIM Institute | We'll train you in the world's leading B2B VOC, for exciting new products that drive your organic growth
Do you have colleagues who think the key to business success is improving product quality or operational productivity? 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗤𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗪𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿. 𝗪𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗮𝘃𝗲. Sure, quality and productivity will always be important, but with both you reach a point of diminishing returns. What do you do when you reach zero defects, or run a fully automated factory? Not so with the Innovation Wave. Because you're operating on NEW business, not existing business, there is no upper limit. Check out this slide show, and download the full white paper from the last page.

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘀𝗮𝘆 "𝗬𝗘𝗦" 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱. Sammy the Salesman, wants to make his customers happy. When they ask for a feature, he immediately contacts the product manager and insists the new feature be added. Sammy is not thinking about and doesn't care about: ✅How this feature impacts the UX generally ✅If there are simple workarounds that could help the customer ✅A feature's fit with the product's targeted segment ✅The number of customers that would use the feature ✅Other priorities in the pipeline ✅Cost / effort of the feature He doesn't think about anything but this one customer and their request -and he wants to say "yes" and keep the customer happy. Sammy gets frustrated with any other answer. A product manager must maintain a strategic perspective and must become skilled at saying "no" or at least "not right now." Figure out why they need it, and place the need within the pipeline to be prioritized alongside everything else. Then, especially if it's big customer, work with the salesperson to help the customer find a workaround. Product managers must also avoid being people-pleasers. Sammy will not be happy and will not understand. So sorry, Sammy! We are running a business here, not a concierge service. #innovation #productmanagement #marketing _____________________ 🐺 𝗛𝗶!
