UX: A Process
The User Focus
• Internal perception of your customer is usually not as close to reality as your company thinks; likely shaped by internal factors like formal accounting divisions
• Be a pusher: the term “User” is also associated with drug dealers! Internet behavior is addictive, so be on the supply side
Brand Messaging
Stakeholders Strategic Message
Internal: Board, Exec, Sales, etc. “Individual Message”
External: Vendors, Competition, Members “Individual Message”
