Tagline

Too many products fail because of wrong assumptions

It get's even worse when a team has diverse ideas and directions that are not aligned. A Design Sprint enables your team to rapidly prototype different product versions, test them with real users, and zero in on a product that your customers love.

Unify your team with a prototype & customer feedback

Make informed decisions fast & use the creativity of the team

Improve your product messaging & better explain your value

It was an absolute pleasure working with Arthur. He is extremely talented at what he does. We gained immense value from the workshops.

How it works

The Design Sprint is like a four-day hackathon

Design Sprints are perfect when starting a new project of high risk, when there is a tight deadline or when a project is just plain stuck.

Sprints are perfect for:

  • Finding Product-Market Fit
  • Innovative projects
  • Business model validation
  • Organizational change
  • Big software projects
  • Aligning your team
  • Digital transformation

Day 1 - Map & Sketch

  • Set a 2-year goal & identify risks.
  • Create a Customer Journey Map.
  • Research competitors to take inspiration from.
  • Sketch out possible solutions.

Day 2 - Decide

  • Pick the best parts of all sketches
  • Remix and improve into a cohesive story
  • Create a storyline for your prototype.
  • Fill in the details.

Day 3 - Prototype

  • Create a realistic looking prototype.
  • Prepare the user interviews.
  • Outline an Interview Script.
  • Sync everything.

Day 4 - Test

  • Get feedback from 5 users.
  • Show them the prototype.
  • Learn from observing and hearing them think.
  • Evaluate and plan steps after the Sprint.

FAQs

Why wouldn't I just facilitate workshops myself or let a team member do it?

Actually, back in 2008, that's how I got started with workshops myself! Preparing and running workshops is a skill that can be trained and improved — one workshop at a time.

But every hour put into learning how to get better at workshops, is an hour you can't put into the actual work. Plus, the cost of a poorly executed workshop is not only time wasted; it's also missed opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and alignment.

Why wouldn't I just hire a full-time facilitator?

Good question! In most organisations, a workshop facilitator is not a full-time job. It's something people do on top of their already busy calendars. This means it's hard to properly prepare meetings and workshops, which results in wasted time during the meetings. Also it's difficult to "get many reps in" (as in: facilitate a lot of workshops).

If you do have enough "workshop demand" in your organisation, than the annual cost of a full-time senior-level facilitator now exceeds $100,000, plus benefits (if you're able to find one).

With the monthly plan, you can pause and resume your subscription as often as you need to ensure you're only paying your facilitator when you have work available for them.

Is there a limit to how many requests I can have?

Once subscribed, you're able to add as many workshop requests to your queue as you'd like, and they will be delivered one by one. With a Standard Plan you can have up to four workshops per month, with the Business Plan it's eight workshops.

How fast can we run my workshop request?

On average, the agendas for most workshop requests are completed in just two days or less. However, more complex requests can take longer. When you're 100% satisfied with the workshop design in Miro, your workshop date will be confirmed (often this can be run within a couple of days as well).

How does a multi-day workshop (like a Design Sprint) count towards my monthly limit?

Every day of a multi-day workshop counts as one workshop. So as an example, you can do one 4-day Design Sprint per month on the Standard Plan, or two on the Pro Plan.

Who is the facilitator?

You'll work directly with me, Agile Arthur, and I will prepare and run your workshops myself. However, for special requests (such as large groups) I might co-facilitate with partner facilitators. If there is any situation in which I cannot facilitate a workshop myself, I will prepare the workshop and one of my partner facilitators will run the workshop.

Can you train my team to run better workshops?

Yes. By experiencing the way I prepare and run workshops, your team will get an idea of what it takes. If they want learn even more, they can enroll in my Retrospectives course, or Design Sprint Facilitator course.

How does the pause feature work?

You may not have enough workshop requests to fill up an entire month. Perhaps you only have one workshop requests at the moment. That's where pausing your subscription comes in handy.

Billing cycles are based on a 31 day period. So, if you sign up and use the service for 21 days, and then decide to pause your subscription — your billing cycle will be paused and you'll have 10 days of service remaining to be used anytime in the future.

What tools do you use for the remote workshops?

All your workshops are designed and facilitated using my Miro (digital whiteboard) and Butter (video conferencing) environments, which are included in your monthly plan. This allows me use all facilitator controls these tools provide.

Google Meet, Zoom or Teams sometimes are also (slightly worse) options, but that depends on your workshop request.

How do I request workshops?

Via your Notion backlog you can request workshops in whatever way works best for you. You can enter it directly in Notion, share a Google Docs or Miro board, or even record a brief Loom video (if you don't like to write your request out). As long as it can be shared in Notion, your request can be handled.

What if I don't like the workshop agenda?

No worries! I'll continue to revise the design until you're 100% satisfied.

What if I only have a single request?

That's fine. You can pause your subscription when finished and return when you have additional workshop needs. There's no need to let the remainder of your subscription go to waste.

Are there any refunds if I don't like the service?

Due to the high quality nature of the work, there will be no refunds issued.
