- Facilitate based on project type: - - Personal/hobby: - - - "Who else would love this besides you?" - - "Tell me about someone who would use this" - - Keep it light and informal - - Startup/business: - - - "Describe your ideal first customer - not demographics, but their situation" - - "What are they doing today without your solution?" - - "What would make them say 'finally, someone gets it!'?" - - "Are there different types of users with different needs?" - - Enterprise: - - - "Which roles/departments will use this?" - - "Walk me through their current workflow" - - "Who are the champions vs skeptics?" - - "What about indirect stakeholders?" - - Push beyond generic personas: - - - Not: "busy professionals" → "Sales reps who waste 2 hours/day on data entry" - - Not: "tech-savvy users" → "Developers who know Docker but hate configuring it" - - Not: "small businesses" → "Shopify stores doing $10-50k/month wanting to scale" - - For each user type that emerges: - - - Current behavior/workflow - - Specific frustrations - - What they'd value most - - Their technical comfort level - - primary_user_segment - - - Explore secondary users only if truly different needs -

- Keep metrics simple and meaningful - - For startups: - - - "What metrics would convince you this is taking off?" - - "What user behaviors show they love it?" - - "What business metrics matter most - users, revenue, retention?" - - Push for specific targets: "100 users" not "lots of users" - - For enterprise: - - - "How will the organization measure success?" - - "What KPIs will stakeholders care about?" - - "What are the must-hit metrics vs nice-to-haves?" - - Only dive deep into metrics if they show interest - Skip entirely for pure hobby projects - Focus on what THEY care about measuring - - - success_metrics - - - business_objectives - - - - key_performance_indicators - - - - Keep the document growing with each discovery - - - - Focus on FEATURES not epics - that comes in Phase 2 - - Guide MVP scoping based on their maturity - - For experimental/hobby: - - - "What's the ONE thing this must do to be useful?" - - "What would make a fun first version?" - - Embrace simplicity - - For business ventures: - - - "What's the smallest version that proves your hypothesis?" - - "What features would make early adopters say 'good enough'?" - - "What's tempting to add but would slow you down?" - - Be ruthless about scope creep - - For enterprise: - - - "What's the pilot scope that demonstrates value?" - - "Which capabilities are must-have for initial rollout?" - - "What can we defer to Phase 2?" - - Use this framing: - - - Core features: "Without this, the product doesn't work" - - Nice-to-have: "This would be great, but we can launch without it" - - Future vision: "This is where we're headed eventually" - - Challenge feature creep: - - - "Do we need that for launch, or could it come later?" - - "What if we started without that - what breaks?" - - "Is this core to proving the concept?" - - core_features - - - out_of_scope - - - - future_vision_features - - - - mvp_success_criteria - - - - - Only explore what emerges naturally - skip what doesn't matter -
