Ideation

At the ideation phase, your project is probably pretty rough. It might be a website mockup, a concept you’ve been kicking around in your head, or a simple back-of-the-napkin kind of sketch. That’s OK. While a traditional A/B test requires you to have a working build, at PickFu, all you need is to convey your idea and ask for honest feedback.  

Using PickFu at the early stages of a project

Before you fully commit resources, build confidence that your idea is likely to succeed. Gauge interest in what you’re developing and solicit ideas for improvement. Understand the pain points and needs of your ideal consumer. And don’t worry — because every PickFu poll respondent signs a non-disclosure agreement, your secrets are safe with us.    

Common questions at the ideation stage:

  • “How interested would you be in a product/service that [provides this benefit]?”
  • “Which product would you be more interested in buying?”
  • “Would you use download a mobile app that [performs this function]?”

Design

During the design phase, you’re somewhere in between a prototype and a finished product. PickFu is useful to help you hammer out details like layout, colors, packaging, product materials, and the like. This phase is a good time to start comparing your designs to competitors in the marketplace to see where you can develop an edge.   

Using PickFu during the design phase

Red or blue? Stripes or polka dots? Serif font or sans serif? Before you purchase inventory or commit to production, have confidence that the design decisions you make are the right ones. 

Common questions asked at the design phase:

  • Which product design would you rather buy?
  • Which screenshot do you prefer for [this website or app]?
  • Which character would you prefer to play in this game?

Development

During development, you bring your vision to life, perhaps by writing code, evaluating product vendors, or editing videos. Depending on the complexity of your project, you might bounce back and forth between design and development a few times before you add any finishing touches. Using PickFu to crowdsource outside perspectives is especially helpful at the design and development phases because you still have time to change course before going to market.   

Using PickFu during development

As you develop, it’s easy to become consumed by all the work you need to do. Don’t forget to come up for air — and for much-needed perspective. PickFu provides a useful gut check as you create and build your project, whether it’s an app, website, video, new product, or something else entirely.
