Experiments Handbook - Britta Ullrich
Hartmut.
Experiments at XING.
When do experiments make sense? We believe: all of the time.
However, when you think about doing an experiment now, it is most likely your task is to come up with a solution for a customer problem.
This means that a strategic frame exists to work from – data supporting the strategic decision to invest in a business opportunity. Your task is to refine and reframe this opportunity.
Learn before you ship.
Experiments should become a natural part of your work.
Experiment to mitigate risk as you discover the customer problem, and experiment to optimise as you develop and iterate on your products.
A ‘Thinking Experiments’ Framework
Think. Build. Measure. Learn.
Opening up. Closing down.
Experiments can be used to learn – both in the sense of opening up possibilities and in the sense of closing down by eliminating false assumptions. As you move towards the definition of a solution, opening up helps you to identify the areas where the greatest opportunity for business and users meet, while closing down helps to understand what we cannot or should not build. Digital technology is powerful, so it is often more a question of what we should build rather than what technology we can afford.
Think first.
Make sure everyone in the team understands the strategy and business needs – and make it clear what assumptions you might have regarding user needs and pain-points. If you identify any gaps in your understanding of the problem, plan your first experiments in order to learn more about the why – before moving to the solution space.
Then build for learning.
As you start designing the artefacts that help you gather feedback, think about what you want to learn, and use that as a basis for deciding how to build – both in terms of design choices and technology choices.
Measure the right thing.
If you are lucky, you can close the loop early on and directly measure impact on the KPIs you aim to move. You often need to take smaller steps; while these might not directly move a needle, be clear as to how they contribute to the bigger picture. Make sure to close the loop eventually – aim to cover all the steps towards your defined goal.
Think. Experiments in the Problem & Solution Space.
In the problem space, experiments can lead you beyond where you wanted to go. With
