OPPORTUNITY
OPPORTUNITY: We want to design the best car sharing experience possible. How can we find out what matters to our members?
SOLUTION: Spend time with them. Through in-home interviews and drive-alongs, we hang out with Zipcar members to learn as much as we can about their mobility decisions in context.
be with your customers
the ZIPCAR WAY
CASE STUDY //
be with your customers OPPORTUNITY: CustomMade is a two-sided marketplace for both makers and buyers, and establishing trust and engagement on the maker side is critical to success. Who are the makers and how can they be engaged?
SOLUTION: Spend time with them. Go to the makers, immerse in their workshops and studios, and get to know their craft and their business. It's the best way to fully understand their needs.
OPPORTUNITY: How can we leapfrog and innovate our product offerings, and not just grow incrementally?
SOLUTION: Backcasting: by thinking about the ideal experience first, we can shoot for the right goal, then work back to accommodate existing operational and technology constraints.

OPPORTUNITY: Business cards have been around for a long, long time. With such a time-honored product, how can we really surprise and blow our customers away?
SOLUTION: Think of the ideal experience, and over deliver in a way that they would never expect. Revolutionize the industry with MiniCards, the Luxe family of products and Printfinity.
imagine the ideal
OPPORTUNITY: Our members had trouble figuring out exactly where their Zipcar was, especially when they were going to a location for the first time.
SOLUTION: Treat each location as its own Zipcar storefront: develop guides for wayfinding, add location photos to apps and launch a location certification program.

OPPORTUNITY: Dropbox wanted its all-star interns to come back as full-time after they graduated from school.
