Your Customers Jobs

Come on boy, there's jobs to be done.

One of my Dad's favourite sayings.

I hated hearing it when it was 7 pm on my 39th straight day of work. But that's just how things were on the family Orchard during Summer.

Little did I know then that phrase would follow me long past my fruit-picking days.

Product managers from Stripe, AngelList, Klarna, and I'm sure many more say knowing your customer's "jobs to be done" is the single most important piece of information they have.

People buy for a reason. They're trying to achieve something; they have a job.

Plant a new tree. Drive from Dunedin to Wanaka. Lose weight, as Kale is above.

You might need a spade to plant a tree. But so might the person disposing of evidence. Knowing what separates them is the difference between good and bad marketing, sales, service etc.

I've revisited this thought many times over the past few months as I've been building Gravy (a platform to help not-for-profits raise funding). What jobs are our customers doing...

Are they looking for information on available grants? Do they want to learn how to write a grant application, or are they looking for someone to do it for them?

To find out, we're asking Gravy users;

1. What are you trying to achieve?

2. Why do you want to do that?

3. What have you tried so far?

The answers to these questions guide our product decisions, which flows on to marketing and so on.

If you don't know your customer's jobs to be done, as my Dad also liked to say you're pissing in the wind.
