What is the Customer Input Group?
The Customer Input Group is comprised of gardeners who can provide voice-of-the-customer perspective on products in development.
Are there qualifications to be a member?
Only three:
- You are enthusiastic about gardening of any variety.
- Your level of expertise as a gardener may range from a novice to a master gardener.
- You take pictures with your phone.
What does membership in this Group require?
- Thoughtful review of prototypes, concepts, designs, and other artifacts that demonstrate the product direction and strategy.
- These reviews may take the shape of usability tests, surveys, design critiques and more.
- These reviews may happen via email, via 1-1 conversations, or as part of a conference call with other group members.
- Each review may take 1-2 hours of your time.
What are the benefits?
- You get the very earliest look at new product ideas.
- Your input will significantly shape the direction of our products
How often?
Currently, something might come along to be reviewed once every quarter. We expect this to increase to once every month as things pick up.
For how long?
For as long as you care to play this role. If you’re not interested just let us know and we’ll take you off the list.
Anything else?
If you accept, we would ask two favors:
- That you make enough time to give truly thoughtful responses when reviews come along. As this business is in such an early stage with so few people involved, feedback from a broader set of folks is extremely valuable in creating a desirable product.
- That you sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
If you’re interested, please contact us.
Thank you very much for your interest and support!
