Cheat your way with UX

So you're building a knockout web site, a cool mobile app, or kickstarting an startup idea. But how can you gain a better understanding of your users—your customers— to begin deciphering their needs? How can you figure out who would be interested, or if there's going to be a market? Who is really your target audience?

We will explore some user experience design (UX) tools and activities that can help us refine objectives, pave the way for making decisions, determine the shape of a minimum viable product and enhance how we translate brand values to voice and design.
