Workshop: Mobile product tear down

How do you get good at product management? Practice of course. Marathoners don't just show up and run the race. They practice - distance, stamina, sprints, even core muscles. Same thing for musicians. They practice scales. What do we do as PMs? How do we get better at managing products?

Product Tear Down - Mobile

What/Goal - Mobile product tear down: Airbnb (https://www.airbnb.com/) and Hotel Tonight (http://www.hoteltonight.com/). Analyze product decisions behind key dimensions (for the mobile app):

• Default exprience

• Conversion/revenues

• Engagement

• Virality

(Companion slide - http://goo.gl/7SKC6J )

Who - For aspiring PMs looking to sharpen product senses so that as PM, you'll know what you're talking about. Plus PMs who want to coach.

Details - The session will be facilitated as follows by Neil and David.

• 600: Overview

• 615 - 715: Product tear down in small groups

• 715 - 745: Findings discussion / presentations

• 745 - 800: Debrief

Intro Price - $10 for our first product tear down workshop.

• We will have drinks and snacks (no dinner). Check out Sprig (http://www.eatsprig.com) for meal options.

Why am I being charged for a meetup?

• Because non-show rate is really high for free events, and for this gathering to work, we will need those RSVP'ing to have some skin in the game and value this kind of gathering.

• All proceeds will go to the meetup group's future programming fund, so that we can try cool things and experiment as a community.
