Design Hacks with Laura Klein
- March 20 · 6:30 PM
(Student or just can't afford the ticket price? Join the volunteer mailing list to get in free.)
Getting out of the building is just the beginning. You still need to design a product that people can use and find value or delight in.
In this talk, Laura will teach you some easy tricks for designing a usable product with absolutely no design experience. Learn how to take advantage of:
- Design Patterns
- Calls to Action
- Information Grouping
- Frameworks + Customization
- Stealing
We'll kick off with lightning talks from Alex Cowan - Leonid Systems Case Study and Shaan Puri - Growth Gone Wild, The Viral Story of Water Forward.
(Want to do a lightning talk? Contact me)
Lastly, we'll end with our panel and open mic MVP format. Anyone can present their MVP to get feedback from our panel! Show up at 6:30 sharp to signup.
(Contact me for details on the format and how to present your slide or demo.)
Beer, food, and a good hang with great people is included thanks to the price tag. After expenses, extra proceeds go to building out LeanStartupCircle.com for the community.

hi, I just signed in for the volunteer mailing list. I wanted to RSVP as well, but to finish it I'd have to pay the U$ 20,00. Should just signing up for the volunteer list be enough? In case not, how could I RSVP without the payment? thanks!
