When I started
out in the team, I was tasked out with coming out with a plan so that we
can demonstrate the product with real data.
The idea was to demonstrate it to our prospect with their own data and win them over. However, when I started working, I found out that what we lacked was not a plan but a vision.
I quickly put together a one day workshop with our team and our product owner. When we started talking, we talked about several things and figured out that we needed a plan of various proportions.
We needed a plan that could help us one the following:
We also did a quick “Product in a box” exercise so that all of us in a team can practice and imbibe the elevator pitch. We needed this since we had to do this pitch at several levels - Internal as well as to prospects.
This is how the “Product in a box” looks like.
This is how the product roadmap looks like.
