Designers need to ensure that people get up and running quickly and understand the benefits the product delivers. But what's the best way to do that? Come join a network of design leaders for a discussion of the fundamentals and best practices of delivering a memorable, engaging first-use experience.

http://www.christenseninstitute.org/key-concepts/jobs-to-be-done/
The jobs-to-be-done framework emerged as a helpful way to look at customer motivations in business settings. Conventional marketing techniques teach us to frame customers by attributes—using age ranges, race, marital status, and other categories that ultimately create products and entire categories too focused on what companies want to sell, rather than on what customers actually need. The jobs-to-be-done framework is a tool for evaluating the circumstances that arise in customers’ lives. Customers rarely make buying decisions around what the “average” customer in their category may do—but they often buy things because they find themselves with a problem they would like to solve. With an understanding of the “job” for which customers find themselves “hiring” a product or service, companies can more accurately develop and market products well-tailored to what customers are already trying to do. - See more at: http://www.christenseninstitute.org/key-concepts/jobs-to-be-done/#sthash.FIC7wY0k.dpuf
