Anyone can make a product in today’s world - with the tools and open source knowledge available: from low and no-code tools to complex microservice architecture applications. But with advancements in tech, it has become increasingly difficult to get and stay ahead of the competition. One key aspect to the success of your product is to understand what and how to build the features that make up your product - aka Product Management. This is where we aim to separate ourselves from the competition.
Product managers at SoluteLabs are responsible for ensuring that products meet customer needs, remain profitable, and outperform competitors. As businesses grow, managing products becomes more complex and requires specialized skills and expertise.
In this blog post, we will introduce our product management services, and describe how organizations: from Startups to Large Enterprises have leveraged the same to quickly build, launch, and iterate on the products we build with them.
Developing a Customized Product Strategy for Your Business
A well-crafted product strategy is the foundation of any successful product. It outlines a roadmap for product development that aligns with the overall business objectives. It also defines the target market, product positioning, and the key features and benefits of the product.
This strategy is essential for products across industries, including business management software, ensuring they meet market demands and business goals.
We work with businesses to develop and implement product strategies that drive growth and success. Our team of experienced Product Managers conducts extensive market research to identify customer needs, competitive gaps, and market trends. This research is used to develop a comprehensive product strategy that meets the business's goals.
Our product strategy process includes the following steps:
1. Market Research: We conduct market research to gain insights into the target market and customers' needs.

Guiding Your Product Development Process from Ideation to Launch
Product development is a complex process that requires a coordinated effort between various teams and stakeholders. Effective product development involves defining the product's features, designing the user experience, testing and iterating, and preparing for launch.
At SoluteLabs, we provide managed services to businesses to manage the product development process from ideation to launch.
Our team of experienced product managers works closely with businesses to define the product requirements, develop the user experience, and oversee the development process.
Our product development process includes the following steps:

Case in point, we partnered with the folks at Evva360 to create a product that focused on dementia patients, their caregivers, and even other professionals. Before we went on to design and develop their MVP (which btw won two awards and helped them raise community funding) - we worked with them over a 4 week period to draft user personas, journeys, and developed a deeper understanding of what different actors would want from the system and how would they react to the same.
Creating Excitement and Interest with a Successful Product Launch
A successful product launch is critical to the success of any product. A successful product launch generates excitement and interest among the target market, establishes the product's positioning and messaging, and sets the stage for ongoing success.
We help businesses develop and execute successful product launches. Our team of experienced product managers have helped our clients create launch strategies that generate excitement and interest among the target market.

Client such as PeepulTree have raised $6M in seed funding after we helped them launch their product under strict timelines.

Ensuring Ongoing Success with Effective Post-Launch Management
Managing a product after launch is just as important as developing and launching it. Post-launch management involves tracking product performance metrics, gathering customer feedback, and making product improvements based on customer needs. Effective post-launch management ensures that the product continues to meet customer needs, remains profitable, and stays ahead of the competition.
We at SoluteLabs help businesses manage their products after launch. Our team of experienced product managers tracks product performance metrics, including sales, customer feedback, and product reviews. This information is used to identify opportunities for improvement and develop a plan to implement these improvements.

2. Customer Feedback: We gather customer feedback through surveys, focus groups, and other methods to gain insights into their needs and pain points.
3. Improvements: We develop a plan to implement improvements based on customer feedback and product performance metrics.
Clients such as Reelo have worked with us to not only create their MVP but also worked with us to refine and improve their product post launch. Infact, we worked closely with the team for over 2 years while we remained their sole product engineering team and they focused on their business objectives.
