Roadmap

Doubling down on what customers love and addressing what holds others back

Focus

The central sources of satisfaction for our most enthusiastic customers are:
quality construction out of exceptional merino wool that feels exceptionally comfortable against the skin
made in America with sustainable practices

Our best customers:
feel great in this clothing
feel great about its provenance

Splitting the roadmap in two

Let’s divide our efforts into two broad categories. We can spend half our time doubling down on what our Very Disappointed customers love, and half our time on the customers who love the products’ provenance and feeling against their skin but are still Somewhat Disappointed for other reasons.
Every initiative on the roadmap has a cost, in time, money, and effort, and an expected positive impact. To estimate the impact, we can use the volume of requests where possible, as well as our own intuition.
In the table below, I have begun a small collection of initiatives to consider adding to the roadmap. The keyword column executes a search against all the survey responses and counts the number of respondents who mentioned that keyword; that can give us an indicator of impact. Clicking the “See Responses” arrow will open a new window with every one of those keyword matches, so you can see the context in which that word was mentioned. As we evaluate all of our options, we can can refine our estimates of Cost and Impact in the columns to the right.
(Note to self: upgrade the keyword search to support word stems or multiple keywords to cover variations (e.g. “USA” and “America” or “sizes” and “sizing”.)
