The Cyclic Growth Funnel
Strategy of Funnel
risk management
Mitigate risk by exploring assumptions on market trends and critical success factors. Startups fail when they don't seek to learn what they don't already know.
customer DISCOVERY
Target audience profiling (including one-to-one interviews) to understand their 'jobs to be done' with regards to your product.
journey mapping
Plot the steps each type of customer takes via acquisition, activation, and retention. Find gaps to experiment with new user flows.
product planning
Determine 'problem solution fit' via real-world interviews with potential product users and then test hypothesis with prototypes. The R in R&D.
value proposition design
Start with a variety of value propositions (refined via customer interviews) to hone a proven sales message fit for market.
brand Positioning
Not just logo design and color palettes! True branding comes from the position the brand holds in the mind of the market.
