C.H.L.I. Feature prioritization

Everyone can start adding features and product ideas to the board by using sticky notes. Everyone will place those sticky notes based on their own judgment. (The prioritization will be discussed later) Make sure you add the source of the feature/idea (i.e. does the feature idea originate from a competitor or client request?), as well as the problem the feature solves. Source of feature/idea Keep track of the origin of each idea by changing the color of the sticky note. Employees** - yellow Metrics**(Ideas come from metrics) - green Users feedback** - pink Emails and Social media** - dark blue User/Potential request** - red

Make sure you discuss how important that feature or idea is. Place the sticky note on one of these quadrants: Critical:** The must-have. Non-negotiable. We absolutely need this or the user will not be able to use/understand/buy our product/service/idea. Sometimes design changes can be included here if it is affecting the user's perspective. High:** The high-value features and ideas. The user will be able to reach their objective and the product/idea will still work but adding these additional features could improve their experience, users could pay more for the same product/service or increase their likelihood of converting into paying customers. Low:** Small impact features and ideas. Ideas and features that aren't necessary but adding them to the product/service will have a small positive impact. Usually not adding these features or ideas will have zero negative effects. Ask yourself: what would happen if our team decides to move forward without adding this feature? If the answer is "nothing" or the negative effects are small this feature or idea belongs here or inside the "indifferent" quadrant. Indifferent**: Customers don't care about it. (Avoid)
