Which? : The “Probate PA” Concept

Which? asked Nina Lovelace to look at what new products/ services they could potentially develop to add subscriber value to their existing Probate advice services, with a view to growing sales and yield. 

THE PROBLEM

Which? had an existing subscription ‘DIY’ Probate service which provided guidance to consumers to deal with the estate of someone who has died. Which? wanted to improve this service, to support more people to manage probate online not just over the telephone, with a view to selling more DIY Probate subscriptions and/or upselling more supported packages. 

WHAT WE DID

Nina assessed existing data to understand audience usage trends of the existing probate service, and reviewed or ran qualitative and quantitative research already supplied by Which? that gave insight into a number of key audience requirements that could inform potential development ideas. Nina also scoped a service blueprint in a service design role, to identify how users currently accessed the service, such as online or through the telephone, and where weaknesses lay.  

Online was underdeveloped; many users wanted more online guidance, with some audience segments actively refusing to use the telephone service (although this was still vital to maintain for many more elderly users). Digital-first audiences specifically wanted task lists to break managing probate into more manageable, achievable tasks and to avoid overwhelm. There was also a greater requirement for chatbot style support, for when consumers had additional questions, which could be potentially overseen by the customer support telephone team used to this type of conversational work. 

Nina worked with the Which? UX team to run UX design workshops, to create designs and scope in terms of Epics/ Stories a range of potential ‘Probate PA’ concepts that could affordably be tested and prototyped with end users. Nina also developed a business case into how the Probate PA could support upsell from DIY Probate or Bronze service, to progressively more supported “Silver” and “Gold” subscriptions. 

THE OUTCOME

The Which? Board welcomed the concepts which they followed up with more detailed internal costing and feasibility work. Major elements were subsequently built, tested and rolled out to support subscription growth.

Similar to any other map, the product roadmap is a visual representation of your product, which keeps everyone involved with the product well informed throughout the journey. Creating a product roadmap you will first need to determine your product vision and strategic goals.

Few Tips for Creating Product Roadmaps

I joined PEGA back in 2009 and one of the best experiences that I received so far, is the knowledge about how a perfect blend of solid technical experts and realistic product roadmaps can help to realize the company's vision. To successfully roll out a product to market, one must have the right set of the talent pool in the team. Having said that, it is also important to have the right roadmap set for them, so that they can effectively contribute towards the success journey. Creating a product road map is very important and holds the key to success. My tips on how to plan perfect (well near perfect) product roadmaps. Read on

Be prepared before launch: Whenever a product is designed, it is done so with a vision. Depending upon the vision, you can formulate the strategy of marketing the same. Your strategy must comprise of elements like your vision, key features of the product and target set of customers.

Convincing storytelling: Are you ready to deliver an elevator pitch about the product? Are you ready to convince the sharks in the market to invest in your idea? These are some of the attributes that one needs to take care of when they plan to launch a brand new product in the market. It is very important to explain the investors, how the product is going to look like or how is it going to help various personas. The product route map must adhere to a well-knit storyline depicting the vision, purpose, and utility of the product. It should tell the entire path of the product development cycle starting from ideation until the marketing phase.

Must deny the wrong: You cant deliver a submarine and ship at one shot as a single product line even though both of them are meant to travel through the water. Jokes apart, at times, the stakeholders get so overwhelmed that they end up demanding outcomes like this. Preparation of the product roadmap must have the involvement of various stakeholders, but, you must have the ability to deny any suggestion which is not streamlining the product development cycle. It is far better to say NO than giving false commitments.

Prioritize goals over features: Very important to me at least. Give your goal greater priority than to the features of the product. Features of the product must support your goal behind the development of the product.

Select the right indices: You must select the right metrics and indices or KPIs to judge the journey quality of your product. The metrics must be governed by your goals. In the case of agile products, velocity is one such important parameter that you should always take into consideration while working on the roadmap. Its good to be optimistic, but being over-optimistic can ruin your entire timeline. So define the important KPI that you will measure from time to time during the product journey and share the report with all stakeholders.  

To wrap it up, don't add too many details to your roadmap. It must cover all the important aspects of the product crisply and comprehensively. Remember, a Product Roadmap is the key to Strategy in Branding and Business Development to boost the marketing and sales volume of your product.

News UK: Product Comparison

News UK asked Nina to do a deep dive product comparison across its suite of digital products, and compare them in terms of features & pricing to support product strategy.

THE PROBLEM

News UK did not have a macro view of how its product suite, including websites, apps and tablet ‘editions’, compared with key competitors.

WHAT WE DID

Nina did an exhaustive deep dive into News UK’s product suite, assessing apps, website and other digital products and their benefits and value to  audience segments, when compared to similar products from other media or comparable outlets. 

OUTCOMES

On the basis of her analysis, Nina presented a product SWOT analysis to the News UK top team, helping them identify products in need of potential development in order to stay competitive, as well as innovative or good practice from other media outlets. The research informed into product roadmapping and reprioritisation work.

Kandu: Mentortech SaaS B2B Startup

Nina took 3 years out from her consultancy work with Nyna Consulting to launch her own startup, Kandu. Kandu was a software as a service company which helped organisations to launch, manage and measure mentoring or coaching programmes.

THE PROBLEM

Many organisations seek to run mentoring or coaching programmes to help develop future leaders. However, once they have found potential mentees and internal or external mentors, they struggle to have visibility on what is happening between pairs, and whether or not the programme and mentoring advice is helping mentees/ coachees achieve their aims. As a result, return on investment is hard to monitor and justify to boards. 

WHAT WE DID

Nina acted as Product Director, CEO and Founder. She researched target markets and audiences and scoped and built an initial software MVP (including Epics/ product roadmapping and prioritisation) which would help organisations to collect information on mentoring programmes. The software was developed over time to reflect customer feedback; it became fully customisable for different clients, and allowed them to match mentees and mentors, collect data on mentee goals and sentiment/ confidence, as well as collect data on other important issues such as community knowledge ‘gaps’ and programme engagement. Nina raised equity funding from angel investors to develop the product and built a team to sell into and manage relationships with accelerators and corporates, across the UK and Asia. Her team comprised of a CTO, leadership expert Non-Executive Director, project managers/ product managers, engineers, a UX designer, data scientist, customer support team, and business development lead/ client director. Nina also develop a data consultancy arm to the business where we also helped clients analyse their data to identify priorty actions from our insights.

THE OUTCOMES

Nina successfully designed and built a product and business, and sold and account managed a variety of clients over three years including a major bank and multinational communications company. The service was well received and gave clients vital data insights such as which mentees were developing/ achieving hoped for goals, which mentors were adding value, engagement levels into programmes, and vitally ROI into these types of programmes. Sadly the COVID-19 pandemic severely affected Kandu’s sales pipelines during 2020 and the business was closed.
