The document summarizes a presentation given by Bob Moesta and Chris Spiek of The Re-Wired Group on October 28th, 2013 about understanding customers' "jobs-to-be-done" rather than just focusing on products and their features. It introduces the concept of a "job" as what a customer is trying to accomplish rather than just the product or solution itself. The presentation discusses frameworks for understanding the context of customers' problems and analyzing the timeline of their decision-making process, including the forces that drive them to try new solutions or maintain the status quo. It also briefly mentions the Kano model of quality as it relates to jobs-to-be-done analysis.

I grew up in the web space, and have experienced first-hand the pain, frustration, and failure that comes
from not understanding what it takes to get people to switch to a new solution.
What is
“ The Switch:start usingthe consumer going to stop doing
when they
your product?
”

What is a Job-To-be-Done?
The premise is simple: customers don't just buy products
They "hire" them to do a job.
“People don't want to buy
a quarter-inch drill…

Value = f(Context, Do, Candidates, Product, $)
Content vs. Context
People don’t just buy stuff.
They buy what stuff does for them.
Content is what you make for them
Context is what you mean to them
People buy on emotion and justify with logic.
