Will they get it in seconds? 👀
Hey, Hey P2P’ers! 👋🏾
I learned something from my latest competition.
Checking every rule does not guarantee people understand your app.
I kept asking:
“Am I meeting the criteria?”
I checked the boxes.
But I also needed to ask:
“Will a judge understand the value in seconds?”
~~~
Here’s the clarity gate I’m adding:
1. What does the competition ask for?
2. Where can the judge see proof that I met it?
3. Can somebody with no backstory tell me what the app does, who it helps, and why it matters?
4. Can I explain it clearly in one minute?
~~~
My example:
DeHub helps a community coordinator get a neighborhood ready to use WST.
WST gathers household reports about water interruptions.
For the MITx Global Challenge, I plan to present them together as one coordinated approach. They aren’t technically connected yet, so I’ll be clear about what each one does.
~~~
Try this with your app 👀
Show somebody your opening screen.
Ask them what they think it does.
If they don’t get it right away, that’s not a fail.
That’s your next clue.
Are y’all with me? 👀
