From validation to action
Explore how to improve B2B experiences with actionable insights.
Validate concepts
- Before building your company’s new experience, content, or product, reduce costly mistakes by learning what customers think before you commit to development.
- Get your customers to help you narrow down to the concept they like the best.
- Example question: What are your initial thoughts about the app? Describe the layout, graphics, and ease of use.
Validate digital experiences
- Presenting easy-to-find, compelling, and relevant information is key to communicating your product and brand’s value to your customers.
- Example rating scale question: How easy or difficult was it to find this product information?
- Example follow-up question: What made it easy or difficult?
Troubleshoot pain points
- Exercises like assessing your customers’ digital experience or having a customer journey map help identify the moments that matter and the areas of focus.
- Watching recordings of a potential buyer’s screen and hearing them explain why they’re making those choices, helps you gain a deeper understanding of buyers’ intent, expectations, and challenges.
Enhance observations
- By understanding business buyers’ feelings and motivations, you can find deeper human insights that complement your other data sources.
- Gain critical context about the root of the problem, so that you can effectively design solutions that resonate with your customers
