Emotion-centric design
Product information
A course with the Build to Sell authors.
You’ve likely felt the frustration of launching a product or a new feature that ticks all the boxes but still doesn’t resonate with customers. Sales lag, and you scramble—offering discounts or rushing out new features, hoping for a breakthrough.
The real issue? Users aren’t emotionally connecting with what you’ve built, leaving you stuck trying to boost engagement.
In this emotion-centric design course, you’ll learn to go beyond functionality and design products that solve complex customer trade-offs while tapping into core emotions. This approach will help you build lasting loyalty and boosts adoption, giving your solution a unique edge by triggering deep emotional responses and solving seemingly impossible customer problems.
