Forwarding Product Leaders
• Creating brilliant products is a group effort. • It takes designers, developers, marketers – really, everyone in the product ecosystem.
• Startup Product Summit is the premiere place to gain valuable insights from product stars that have been in the trenches and have the battle scars to prove it.

Product Excellence Depends on where you’re touching

What Makes A Product Great Depends…

Donald Norman mapped lifecycle of products
why good products can fail…

lifecycle of products“In its early days, a technology cannot meet all the needs of its customers.
Early adopters need the technology and they are willing to suffer inconvenience to get it.
With time, the technology matures, offering better performance and higher reliability.
When the technology exceeds the basic needs of most of its customers, there is a major change in customer behavior.
Emotional reaction, pride of ownership, and pleasurability all can become major selling points.”The Invisible Computer Donald Norman

Stage 1
Pure function is all that matters: If the one thing it does is the only option available, people
will be happy with it.
![Page 24: Silicon Valley Code Camp Preso: Deconstructing The Code For Product Excellence](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052521/541496428d7f724a6c8b4651/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Stage 2 Feature Wars
The number of features matters because frequently the buyer doesn't understand what each feature actually means.
Later in this phase, specific features do make a difference as
people are looking for certain features to make their purchase
decisions.
![Page 25: Silicon Valley Code Camp Preso: Deconstructing The Code For Product Excellence](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052521/541496428d7f724a6c8b4651/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Stage 3 Experience Wars
The experience and total cost of ownership matters most.
Products with fewer -but better- features will trump
the more feature-laden winners of Stage 2.
![Page 26: Silicon Valley Code Camp Preso: Deconstructing The Code For Product Excellence](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052521/541496428d7f724a6c8b4651/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The actual item becomes absorbed into a larger
product mix. Individual features of the
technology no longer matter, but become a
price/performance issue for the integrator.
Stage 4 Commodities

There is a lifecycle that every product, startup, idea and project passes through to be realized
that parallels the “creative process”
![Page 28: Silicon Valley Code Camp Preso: Deconstructing The Code For Product Excellence](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052521/541496428d7f724a6c8b4651/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Focusing on where the product is in its lifecycle enables a conversation
that brings us all together on what will serve the
product most to arrive at product/market fit, sustain
growth and generate revenue streams.

Solomon says
“Product Managers create context for the product within the company, within the development process, with all the stakeholders and within the industry, market, channel and end-user community.”

PRODUCT MANAGEMENT
Building a successful product management organization requires not only developing the skills of your product managers, but making sure they know how to work effectively with the rest of the product team, as a key part of your company’s overall product development organization and product development process, and knowing how to create the type of products your company requires, and knowing how to compete successfully in the markets you play in.
