DESIGN SPRINTS<\/h1><\/div>

The design sprint is a five-day Google ventures effort that has been coined in the book \u201cSprint.\u201d It is a process where you find answers to critical business questions in five days through design, prototyping, and testing ideas with customers. It can also be seen as a recipe that takes the mindset and learnings from design thinking and applies it to a five-day step-by-step process. A design sprint can help answer critical business questions from design, prototyping, and testing ideas with clients.<\/p> \n Contact Us <\/a>\n \n

Why use design sprints?<\/span><\/h2><\/div>\n
\n
\n\n
\n Save time and money <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n Design sprints help to bypass the endless-debate cycle and reduce months of brainstorming, the exercise of creativity, and user testing into just one week. It saves you the time and money involved in these lengthy traditional design and development processes. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n
\n\n
\n Get feedback from real user <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n Creating a customer-centric product is one of the critical factors for its success. So, it is always important to get reviews and feedback from those who will use the product. Even though this is a five-day process, it still allows you to involve real customers to provide feedback on the design. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n
\n\n
\n Make informed decisions <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n Sketching and prototyping also decrease the cost of failure. You can explore new things, and if they don\u2019t work out, it will not be much of a problem. The user testing at the end of the five days raises the chances of the final product proving viable in reality. Therefore, with a design sprint, there\u2019s less risk. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n
\n\n
\n Design products that deliver <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n Design sprints help you build products that people will use. It gives you confidence that the product will succeed before embarking on a long and often expensive development process. This five-day process leads up to user testing on the last day. So, you have access to valuable user experiences and feedback that will give insights into whether the app will be successful. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n
\n\n
\n Encourages original thinking <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n Design sprint encourages original thinking through iteration and experimentation. Because of the focus on prototyping and sketching, it gives you the flexibility to experiment with ideas that the company would typically reject. This can be done because the cost of failure is negligible, and you will have the possibility to explore many ideas. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Design sprint process and stages<\/h2>\n

This methodology helps you to reduce months of work into five days.<\/p> <\/div>\n

\n\n
\n \n
\n\n Day 1 – Map<\/span>\n\n
\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n\n

The team brainstorms with experts from every department of the organization to identify the ultimate purpose of the sprint and map out the challenge for the five days. Is it to increase conversion? Reduce bounce rate? They need to identify the problem.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n \n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n\n Day 2 – Sketch <\/span>\n\n
\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n\n

After the goal has been identified, the team starts exploring several solutions by checking different sources of inspiration and drafting various approaches that they could use.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n \n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n\n Day 3 – Decide<\/span>\n\n
\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n\n

The team now analyses the solutions explored on Tuesday and decides which ones have the best odds of fulfilling the long-term goal. They then develop the sketched solutions into storyboards.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n \n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n\n Day 4 – Prototype <\/span>\n\n
\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n\n

On Thursday, you and your team will turn the storyboards into a working prototype that mimics the final approach and ready it for testing with customers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n \n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n\n Day 5 – Test <\/span>\n\n
\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n \n <\/svg>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n\n

Once everything is ready, the final prototype is presented to prospective users, and its viability is tested. Now, you can start gathering feedback by watching how the customers react to the prototype. <\/span><\/p>\n

What happens after the design sprint?<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can use feedback and insights obtained from users\u2019 reviews to plan your next steps. It could be to perform a second sprint to iterate and polish the idea, making it market-ready. Also, you can use the prototype to sell the idea further and improve the concept.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n
