Task 2: Product Positioning

Uncover gaps and gap size in current product positioning

  1. Create a table that:

    1. Lists the target groups in the far-left column

    2. Includes one column to the right labelled "NOW"

    3. Has 3 following columns labelled with each objective established in Part I, Task 1.

  2. In the "NOW" column, for each target group ask: How does [target group] currently think and feel about the product?

  3. After completing the "NOW" column, move on the remaining sections and ask: "To accomplish [objective], how SHOULD [target group] think about our product?"

The outcome of this task helps us better prioritize product requirements
