At the beginning of cooperation with Miquido, we had a lot of ideas for product development, but no specific plan. The two-day workshop helped us to broaden the perspective, sort out areas and create a backlog of tasks for further work on the mobile app.

Understanding your wants and needs

First of all, we’ll need to identify the scope of the project. So we go ahead and learn all there is to know about your product idea and business needs. It’s important for us to understand what it is you want to achieve in the end, in order to build an app that will reflect on your core idea perfectly. We encourage our clients to participate actively at this stage, because this is the best chance for us to embrace your vision and for you to understand the process behind it.

Competitive analysis and market insights

For your product to succeed on the market, you’d need a clear vision as well as a customer-driven strategy. That’s why at this stage we analyse the specifics of your industry, study your competition, learn the latest trends and your users’ needs. Our team helps you identify new business opportunities and sets up a Unique Value Proposition for your product.

Brainstorming and wireframing

Now it’s time for ideation sessions. At our customer-tailored workshops, together we work on user personas and customer journeys, brainstorm possible solutions, and wireframe all the essential features. At the end of this stage, we’re able to decide on the technologies we’ll be using, provide you with an estimated time it will take our development team to complete your project and the approximate cost of the implementation.

Creating a clickable prototype & further iteration

At this stage we complete a clickable prototype that demonstrates what your product will be capable of, but also allows us to receive user feedback. With every interaction, we’re able to validate our hypothesis and get closer to bringing your product to the market with minimal risks. All this lets us deliver a more valuable set of features necessary for your business goals.

Data-driven enhancements of your product

We keep an eye on our product post-launch as well! Our team takes care of all the essential tasks, like testing and optimising their metrics, redefining business ideas, and even generating new features if needed. We will review the initial assumptions, check the data in order to detect missed opportunities, and work out improvements that can deliver quick wins.

Why is the product ideation process necessary for building successful digital products?

The product ideation process is like the foundation upon which the entire product is built, shaping its direction. Digital products are created to solve problems and meet the needs of users. The ideation process allows for thorough research and exploration of user pain points and desires. By understanding this, you can generate ideas that directly address user needs, leading to a more relevant and valuable end product.

It is also worth remembering that nowadays, innovation is key to staying ahead of the competition. The ideation process encourages out-of-the-box thinking, enabling teams to develop unique ideas.

Last but not least – remember that digital products are rarely perfect from the start. The ideation process embraces iteration and continuous improvement. Product teams can refine and enhance the product by gathering user feedback, analysing data, and monitoring market trends. The ability to iterate and adapt based on real-world usage and feedback is essential for building successful digital products that evolve with user needs.

What are the key stages of the digital product ideation process?

Step 1: Generation
This initial stage involves generating various ideas through brainstorming, research, and exploration. It’s essential to foster a creative environment where team members can contribute diverse perspectives. During this stage, no idea is off-limits, and the focus is on quantity rather than quality.

Step 2: Selection

Once ideas have been generated, it’s time to evaluate and select the most promising concepts. This involves assessing each idea based on various criteria, such as market demand, strategic alignment, and user value. In this stage, the team may employ user research or market analysis techniques to make informed decisions.

Step 3: Implementation

After selecting the most promising ideas, you must turn them into tangible products. This stage involves further refinement, detailed planning, and defining the product’s scope and features. That is why It’s crucial to apply cross-functional teams, including designers and developers, to ensure a holistic approach to implementation. Throughout the implementation stage, it’s essential to maintain a balance between creativity and practicality.

Remember that each stage requires careful consideration and collaboration to ensure that the final product meets user needs, aligns with business goals, and provides a delightful experience in the digital landscape.

What product ideation techniques are used by Miquido?

At Miquido, we adapt Product Ideation techniques to every project’s needs. However, our Product Ideation team commonly use some of the most widely known techniques, including:

  • Brainstorming: It involves bringing together a group of individuals to freely share their thoughts, suggestions, and concepts related to the product. Brainstorming sessions often stimulate creativity and can result in diverse potential ideas for further exploration.
  • Mindmapping: This helps to organise and connect different ideas and concepts. Mindmaps can be used to explore various product aspects and generate new connections. This allows for a more structured and holistic approach to ideation.
  • Focus Groups: This technique involves gathering a selected group of individuals representing the target audience or key stakeholders. Through facilitated discussions and guided conversations, focus groups provide valuable insights into user preferences, pain points, and needs.
  • Storyboarding: Storyboarding is all about creating a series of visual narratives or sequential sketches to illustrate how users interact with the product. Storyboards help to visualise the user journey and generate ideas for improving the overall user experience.
  • Sketching: Sketching allows designers to explore different design concepts, interface layouts, and feature arrangements. It encourages visual thinking and facilitates collaboration within the team.

However, it is also worth remembering that various techniques depend on several factors and that the best results often come from a mix of individual activities.

How long does the ideation process take?

As always, it depends on factors such as the project’s complexity, specific goals or team size. The ideation process is typically not a one-time event but an iterative and ongoing product development phase.

The ideation phase may be quick for more straightforward products or features, taking a few days or weeks. However, for more complex or groundbreaking ideas, the process may require more time to explore possibilities, conduct research, and refine concepts, potentially spanning several weeks or even months.

The number of iterations and the time required to incorporate feedback can extend the ideation process. It is essential to allow iterative cycles to refine and improve the ideas before moving forward.
However, it is crucial to take your time with the ideation process as it lays the foundation for the entire product development lifecycle. Allocating adequate time for thorough research, exploration, and refinement of ideas ensures a more robust and successful end product.
