-
The project's main goal is to conduct market research for a new software product. We already offer board management software to the condo and nonprofit market. We would like to offer ticketing/support services for the condo/HOA market.
The research will focus on understanding the target users' needs, preferences, and pain points to inform the development of the new software product.
This will involve several different steps for the students, including:
- Conducting surveys and interviews with potential users of the new product. This includes condo/HOA managers, owners, condo directors to gather feedback and insights.
- Analyzing the data collected to identify common themes, preferences, pain points & potential benefits.
- Researching the market to understand the competitive landscape and potential opportunities for the new software product.
- Creating a report summarizing the findings and recommendations for the new software product.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:
- Conducted surveys and interviews with a sample of potential product users.
- Analyzed the data collected to identify key insights and trends.
- Researched the market and identified potential opportunities and threats.
- Created a comprehensive report summarizing the findings and recommendations for the new software product.
Final deliverables:
- A detailed report including the research methodology, key findings, and recommendations for the new software product.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

- Which of our products and services are most popular?
- Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
- What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

In order to complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:
- Market research methodologies including surveys and interviews.
- Data analysis and interpretation.
- Understanding of software products and user experience.
- Strong communication and presentation skills.
Nice to haves for students include
- Experience with market research tools and software.
