With the project idea spelt out, let’s jump into how and what research method my team and I used

🤝 My process and content

The Process

For this product, we worked as a group of 4. First we all set out to do research on the competitors of our product. We made research on companies like Carbon, Kuda, gomoney, Alat and so many others.

After we had completed the competitors research, one of my group members created a google form questionnaire for us to research on potential users of the product. Who they are and what features they use best on other platforms and these are the answers we got.

After we had completed the user research, i drew up some user stories to help us better understand what our potential users are looking for in our product.

One of my team mates also drew up some user personas based on the research that we had done on our potential users.

After that, we created user flows for both the website and dashboard to help us better understand how the users will use our product. We also came up with the style guide of the product.
