FAQs

To find the right freelance product strategist, ensure your project brief includes a clear description of your product, the specific challenges you are facing, and the objectives you wish to achieve. Detail any specific skills or experiences that are crucial for the strategist to have. Additionally, outline the timeline for the project and any milestones. This information helps freelancers understand the project's scope and determine if they are a good fit.
When evaluating portfolios, look for past projects that are similar in scope or industry to your own. Assess how the strategist communicated their process, solved problems, and delivered results. Pay attention to the diversity of strategies employed and the real-world impact. Reading through case studies or client testimonials can also provide insights into their working style and effectiveness.
To effectively onboard a freelance product strategist, start with a kick-off meeting to align on project goals, key deliverables, and timelines. Share all relevant documentation, including user research, existing strategies, and team dynamics. Establish regular check-ins to facilitate open communication and provide feedback. Define clear metrics for success to ensure both parties are aligned on what success looks like.
