Try It

Below is an example of how to run this process efficiently with your team. You start by writing two or three different versions of the press release. In the try to tease apart tradeoffs you foresee, and articulate them as customer problems you may solve as part of the press release.
The next steps is to invite your team. You can gather reactions and ask the team to articulate their own reflections and opinions in the table. I find it helpful to ask each team member for their conviction level on their feedback. This simple column makes it clear how strongly to read and dig into their feedback.

I really like the direction in
@Option #1
, particularly the focus on the problem of user onboarding.
@Option #2
makes me think we’re solving the user’s problems in the wrong sequence since I think they care about onboarding themselves before onboarding their team.
@Option #3
is interesting, but I don’t think it’s worth solving now.
I wonder if there is a way to combine the focus on onboarding from
@Option #1
with the sequencing implied in
@Option #2
?
