UX Design 3: How To Design a Website: Prioritize Features pt.1

[@lekeku]

Can't believe this having only 2k views! You guys are doing an awesome job!! Really refreshing and insightful!

[@happysloth91]

the intro is dope, I've watched it a hundred times and it's still dope! btw "I design sandwiches"

[@wmikhailw]

Love your series overall! UX 1 and 2 are really good, but this one is a little confusing. However, this part of the process often can be a bit confusing in general :) (I ran into similar confusion while doing work in BA / product roles). Key question: how does this feature matrix relate to the user story that was done in UX2? Doesn't it make more sense to just go from that user story and identify the key screens along with main features based on that flow / story? Seems like there is a bit of a disconnect with the two. Also, which video has the business goals - I think you mentioned UX2, but it just briefly touches on that and also has business goals not really related to the digital product - did I miss smth?

[@Heisma_d_creator]

the intro is fire....love it, would replicate something like that for my podcast, i love ux designing thanks chris do for just putting some light to the process, i have been following the videos and i loved everybit

[@sadaffarsa6058]

Thank you for this wonderful playlist! Where can I find the Goal Prioritization Exercise?

[@chriscasey2353]

really enjoying this series. Looking forward to pt2. Keep up the good work

[@Vancittyy]

I wish he was more confident. We know he knows, but he's all over the place/constantly stopping, starting, thinking, starting, ugh'ing and back to thinking, to writing. Wish I could've stuck this one out. I liked the idea.

[@ggadguy]

Before even coming up with feature sets or tactics it's important to understand current user behaviors to understand what tools they currently use to complete certain tasks. Otherwise, recommending a Facebook ad or other tactics may completely miss the mark. You can get these insights from doing contextual inquiry, user interviews or many other user research techniques. Also I hope your other videos on feature prioritize toon include development estimation, because if your client is on a budget, the dev estimate is critical in prioritization.

[@franci-uz]

I payed so much money and nobody told me this...

[@ChrisDo]

***** did a great job w lighting.

[@aimamalik5126]

This is so usefull and Chris is actually quite charming .

[@martinlang2506]

Ive just been watching through this series and this section really confused me. It seems as if you are tackling it from completely the wrong direction. Rather than understanding what the business offers and working out how to market that to the users through the site you seem to instead be brainstorming features that you think the business should offer. Youve even said they are a fairly small mom&pop type business resort yet you are talking about all these features like customisable service and concierge service etc. This just isnt feasible for the business...

[@FerdausAmzah]

I've been waiting for this since I bought Core! I'm still unsure how the Efficiency part leads to the feature function, especially relating to the front end web experience. Hope you'll cover that in the next one. thanks!

[@thefutur]

+Ferdaus Amzah The efficiency exercise is designed to surface anything that can be systematized (guest login and profiles, email notifications, tools to engage on social media, etc...) are directly related to features and functions that can be built into the site.

[@inesstojanovic]

Great videos as always! I am learning so much from you! :) I am definitely going to buy the CORE - just need to save some money first :) Can't wait! :) Thanks :)

[@thefutur]

+Ines Stojanović yay! There's a payment option to pay in 3 installments if that helps.

[@profiAcc]

did you get the CORE in the end?

[@franci-uz]

Would you do steps 4-7 without the client or with them in a workshop?

[@mierso]

How relevant and useful is this series in today's world and trend?

[@thefutur]

I don't know. what's your take on this?

[@josecaballer6315]

Still fairly relevant. You might code instead of wireframe and you might make the early parts faster to test and validate but still valid. Things are just faster now.

[@brianschnurr3254]

Awesome vid. Really helpful!

[@aimamalik5126]

Just Love Chris so much

[@thefutur]

Thank you.

[@lifehackskenya]

Hi. I've been following the videos and they are really helpful. However, I am really sensitive to the screeching sound when you write on the flipchart and it is very distracting to me. If you would do something about it, I would appreciate. Thanks and awesome work guys.

[@thebibleproof]

The finished site looks amazing guys and gals! Are the images a bit heavy? Thanks for your disciplinary approach, the results speak for themselves.

[@thefutur]

A little heavy.

[@zoecunningham100]

Do experienced designers go through this entire process in as much detail as beginners would or do steps get rushed over the more experienced the designer or team is? In other words, is this process here more or less what you would expect when working for a design agency?

[@thefutur]

Zoe Cunningham experienced designers do this (you are looking at two of them). Inexperienced designers just guess a lot.

[@yveszavel6234]

This is really great, thank you guys

[@thefutur]

+Yves Zavel Thanks!

[@masalahberat]

Hey guys, is it possible for you to make a video just about catchy taglines or other similar implementation for websites?

[@thefutur]

+Eshwaren Manoharen You are talking about copy writing correct? I think we can get someone who is a good writer to help out with that.

[@masalahberat]

Yes, exactly! I coordinate a network of freelancers in Malaysia, which means when doing copy writing we have to be aware that our primary language is English, but not our native one. In trying to be witty, we have to be careful so that clients and users actually understand where you are going with it. This part of our workflow remains very subjective and we are now looking for a way to break it down into a process. Thank you so much guys! Our business is real life example of complete KZbin graduates. :D

[@thefutur]

Eshwaren Manoharen As a middle step, we can show you how we write copy using CORE. Maybe that will fill in the gap for you.

[@naarch]

Wow.. i love it!, anyway what the font name did u use? it's cool!

[@thefutur]

for what? our channel or the client?

[@naarch]

i'm UI designer for for last 2 years and visual brand maker 10 years before. when i was watching this video i found this sentence "Great user experience helps user find what they need..." i seems that it familiar with avenir, gotham or monsterrats. It sound good consider it to my next project maybe..

[@thefutur]

We use mostly Futura for our graphics on this channel. If you can provide a time stamp, I'll tell you for sure.

[@naarch]

2:24 thanks

[@thefutur]

A aziz you bet.

[@gonzalochristobal]

I have something a little bit unclear, the user profiles are made out? Or you ask the companies for that, or you made it up with the company?

[@thefutur]

You make them.

[@gonzalochristobal]

@@thefutur thanks! 🙌

[@utahevan]

Is there a list to watch these in order?

[@thefutur]

Yes. The UX playlist.

[@FlorianPhilippe]

Great Video again. What happens if you sell a UX Design + Website, then during the process (goals definition), you realise that there is more services you can provide and/or, more features on the future website that you initially thought about? Would you increase the price of the invoice half-way to the process?

[@thefutur]

+Florian Philippe That's a good result if that's happening. I typically only quote ballpark figures until after we complete discovery for which we charge money to do (20-50k). After which, we know what needs to be built, at what scale and why we need even need it in the first place. Hope that helps Florian.

[@FlorianPhilippe]

+The Skool Network Thanks for the answer. As I'm starting this process, I was thinking to integrate your strategy into selling websites as this is what I'm used to do. This way I'm sure I will be able to get better projects and better clients. But I don't think I'm able to sell the discovery as alone for now. Hopefully soon enough. Thanks again for sharing this with us. It really inspired me to do a better work and motivated me when I really needed it

[@thefutur]

+Florian Philippe everyone starts at the bottom. Just start working your way up.

[@Mackieee]

"put's" and "send's" distracted me from watching so much it hurt haha

[@coapa_760]

sorry got a little confused... where did you get these headlines (awareness,revenue and efficiency)

[@thefutur]

We created them. They're part of the CORE facilitation guide to help you do discovery with your client.

[@coapa_760]

+The Skool Network ah thanks. Would you recommend sticking with personas, user stories and journey mapping? with so many methods and tools how many is to many?

[@thefutur]

Emmanuel Mendez all of them are important. If you really want to do UX this is critical.

[@wmikhailw]

Are the headlines in any of the videos as well? Love your other videos, but this one seems a bit confusing and also not sure how it relates to user story in UX2.

[@profiAcc]

this is all based on solutions based on User profile's (personas) needs. Ok, but you ASSUME these are his needs, you make personas from your ASSUMPTIONS and base all of your solutions and features on that. Can someone please explain to me how can this actually work?

[@peacei13]

these are great! thanks!!

[@thefutur]

You're welcome

[@itfben]

are you just making these user profiles up off the top of your head or do you get your client, to come up with 3 user profiles - I understand the concept of user profiles but the fact is it completely made up data so surely it's a flawed system? [This is a question] you guys are great

[@thefutur]

not made up. it's based on research, client interaction and intuition.

[@iredacted600]

@@thefutur Wouldn't it make sense to use real user profiles based on actual qualitative user interviews?

[@ionutalbertmaxim]

Hey guys, I just discovered the gold you're sharing, you're doing a great job and I look fw to digesting the rest. But for now, in this video, at kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZqofHWwj8l8Y8U, Jose mentions a (couple of) video(s) related to goals creation and I couldn't figure where they are (if they have been published). Could you advise or share that resource? Since it would account, I think for the 3 prefilled lists that are used as a base. Thank you!

Honest feedback the video was great but SKOOL website is user unfriendly - that was design for print? Especially the pink background, how many people would read it? It's killing my eye.

Thanks for your feedback. We are going to overhaul the design. We don't want to kill your eye.
