Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) is the most effective method to build a winning product roadmap.
Use JTBD to find out if customers will care about your new features before you build them.
Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) is a product development and marketing framework based on a deceptively simple idea:
Your customers aren't buying your product, they are hiring it to get a job done.
This insight is the key to accelerating your growth with less risk.
JTBD keeps your roadmap prioritization and messaging focused on your customer's unmet needs.

"Understanding the JTBD was 'realizing my full potential' was a critical first step, but thrv also showed us how to break down this goal/JTBD to identify unmet needs in achieving this goal. This is what we found really powerful about working with thrv; we can identify needs as metrics which we can measure and act on to help our customers/students."
