    A MARKETING-DRIVEN “INNOVATION” EXAMPLE

    LEVERAGING HUMAN-CENTERED DESIGN

    Marketing got outside the four-walls of the business and met with several Architects and Interior Designers to discuss trends, issues, challenges, pain points, etc.

    Leveraged this initial feedback, tweaked design and created actual illustrations. Then met with others to get more feedback.

    Marketing created a hypothesis based on the pain points surfaced and produced literal pencil sketch drawings on paper. The equivalent of the “napkin sketch”.

    Based on that, further refined the illustrations & produced photo renderings. And created a MVP collateral piece over the weekend…And yet again, sought out more feedback.

    Marketing then met with customers, architects, & interior designers on the pencil sketches for feedback. Yes, you read that right, bare MVP paper prototype. And yes, it’s scary.
    By that time enough insight had been gathered to develop actual physical prototypes. Put a landing page on the web to get more feedback & to learn on positioning and messaging, digital tactics, etc.
    Took the prototype to a national tradeshow and won an award for it’s product category!
