Step 1. Pick an Audience

there is no such thing as ‘the general public’

you can’t design for everyone- if your audience is you, that’s fine.

Acknowledge it. (ref: 37 Signals)- if your audience is potential investors,

that’s also fine. Admit it.

Step 2. Know your audience

don’t assume. beware stereotypes

- find them- watch them- talk to them

Step 3. Design for your audience

question everything

- consider using personas- question every product & design decision against your users needs.

- hire a designer to make you a styleguide

Step 4. Thing big and small

you can do this.

help is out there!
