STEP TWO: FACILITATE COLLABORATIVE PROTOTYPING

Summary: Explore multiple designs and approaches towards delivering the most amount of value in the least amount of time possible to your target persona.

With these market insights packaged into an on-boarding presentation that lets collaborators know to whom they are creating the product or service for, we can then help you hand-pick consultants, designers, engineers, and whomever else needs to be a part of this prototyping phase in your startup development.

Whether you are developing software, hardware, or a service, there will be multiple approaches toward creating a brand experience that looks at the big picture of how the intersection of new technologies, business trends, lean operations, and other internal/external factors may influence the longevity of your business model. Creating with agility and interdisciplinary design management principles in mind is at the crux of what we encourage for all of our clients.

Some of the collaborative prototyping techniques we advise and use ourselves for our clients include but are not limited to:

Design Thinking

Systems Thinking

Agile Design

ISD or ADDIE

X Problem Methodology

TRIZ

Axiomatic Design

8D Problem Solving

3D Modeling

Virtual Simulation Design

Attribute Listing

Morphological Analysis

SCAMPER Process

SEIQ Framework

UI/UX Simulation Design

Improvisational Team-building

After different prototypes are validated through additional market research techniques, we shift toward experimenting with the best ways to communicate the opportunity to pre-order or submit a deposit to a target persona.
