Product Management Intern
Sept 2023 to October 2023 - I started an internship opportunity with a Glority Global Group. It’s the company behind the popular plant identification app called “Picture This”. Being a big fan of the app, I reached out to a product leader and offered to explore a gamification feature idea of plant bingo and scavenger hunt. The leader agreed and I started assembling a team of product researchers. We researched possible competitive advantages, current competitors to this feature, gathered customer feedback through surveys and interviews, and conducted other market research. In the end, we discovered that our hypothesis that customers for the Picture This app would enjoy and utilize this feature as a null hypothesis. We discovered that the most important aspect for users is plant identification accuracy above all else.
