Many infrastructure development teams don’t have a product manager, or have a fractional product owner/analyst working primarily on detailed technical requirements. Said another way, great development teams want to work on great technical problems. Product managers and development teams solve different problems.

The good news is that SEO can help make that process much easier by giving you the insights your team needs to pick a profitable niche and scale your business. Finally, once you’re done with keyword research on finding a niche, share the results with your team for further brainstorming. But how do you find that niche? Let’s see how!

Take, for instance, a food scientist who believes that a new flavour enhancer could improve consumer demand, or a pharmaceutical company that have developed a medication which they believe could relieve high-blood pressure. This is simply bad return on effort. If it sounds too good to be true, there is often a catch (or two).

In product development, necessary actions and emergent information is rarely obvious or clear, which is why we need inductive reasoning.

The Basics Put simply, a roadmap is a living document that shows how you plan to develop your product. So it seems the vast majority of SaaS companies only allow team members to view the roadmap, even if most employees don’t actually use it. Enabling your internal teams to access and use the roadmap should be the minimum.

This is way more efficient than relying on your already-busy dev team. You can add interactions so that other team members can see the functionality. You can also use InVision to gather feedback from other team members, and collaborate with them on your designs. Once your design is done, you can hand it over to your dev team.
