My colleague Erik Isaksen and I are leading a 90 minute workshop on prototyping at ModevUX and we’d love for you to attend. It’s a chance to see our process end to end with exercises and (I hope) healthy discussion. You can get 15% off by using the code UX14PLR
Here’s the workshop blurb:
So you, your client or your boss has an idea – what could it look like? Will customers want it? Is it right for the business? At 3Pillar, we use prototyping to develop ideas and get them in front of customers quickly with minimal risk. We’ll take you through our end-to-end process of understanding desired business outcomes, identifying user needs, iterating, prototyping, and testing to get user feedback.
