At every stage of product development, it is crucial to engage with the customer. Two types of interviews are commonly distinguished: problem-focused and solution-oriented.
The problem-focused interview occurs at the earliest stage, when you only have an idea. Its purpose is to understand:
Does the problem exist?
How significant is the pain point?
What value does it bring to the customer?
Conducting problem-focused interviews is essential each time you are creating a new product or considering adding a new feature to an existing one.
Develop hypotheses about issues within the Target Audience (TA)
Validate the existence of the issue
Define a business model (for new products)
Hypotheses for new features
