Solution

I developed and piloted a new digital ordering system — for Jigyasa field agents (SROs), Group Leaders and Customers, with the aim to improve retention and customer experience.

In the long run, Jigyasa intends to digitize the entire journey with the ultimate goal of being the preferred grocery shopping option for rural women in India.

The prototype addressed the hard challenge of providing the most updated catalog and price for women customers so as to set the right expectations on their order value, and bring in more trust and satisfaction from shopping through Jigyasa.

Intended Outputs

Cross-market insights, a collaborative vision for the future of cash, and experiments and actions for your org

Principles – What it is & isn’t

Cross-market insights, a collaborative vision for the future of cash, and experiments and actions for your org

An affinity group, not an auditorium

We want to bring together a group of decision makers who want to actively shape a point of view on a common future

A moment of creation, not a roundtable

We want to roll up our sleeves and design the future we want to live in, and work backwards to what we need to design today.

Think exponential, not incremental

We want to articulate preferred future that creates exponential change from today, not incremental.

Process

Research Research Research

Round 1

First I conducted a quick research exercise to better understand what’s driving churn and what is the right challenge to focus on.

Spoke to :

Buyers: A combination of active and disengaged buyers

SROs: A combination of ones involved in high and low engagement with customers

Round 2

To build on the insights from Round 1, and to understand customers buying and shopping habits to design the right steps and moments to build in the order placement process, I conducted a follow up research exercise to understand the following:

  • Platform: Their preferred mode for order placement
  • Who: Preferred facilitator for order placement
  • Elements: Essential information they seek during order placement
  • The Process Today: Existing process today

We spoke to:

Jigyasa customers i.e. women buyers :  A combination of both active and inactive shoppers

SROs : A combination of ones involved in high and low engagement with customers

Round 3

I saved delving into aspects such as buyer decision-making and order fulfillment preferences for a third round to ensure the dedication of ample time to get a better sense of all aspects in the customers journey without overwhelming them with too many questions. The research exercise looked to understand:

  • Shopping Habits
  • Order Placement Preference
  • Order Verification Preference

Outcome

Reflections

  1. Besides product thinking, viewing things from a business design lens is crucial
  2. Multiple rounds of research is your best friend while building 0–1
    OR
    Being scrappy is essential while building 0–1
  1. Don’t try to digitize everything
