This article mainly introduces "how B-end designers exert design value". In daily operation, I believe many people have doubts about how B-end designers exert design value. The editor consulted all kinds of materials and sorted out simple and easy-to-use operation methods. I hope it will be helpful to answer the doubts of "B-end designers how to exert design value". Next, please follow the editor to study!

Do a good job in role positioning

As a person who is new to the B side, he or she may not quickly realize his or her role and the responsibilities, skills, and values he or she has. It is also not clear how to reflect their own value and the direction of increasing their own value.

Let's first take a look at the design process of the basic product.

△ basic product design process

The cultivation of thinking

The design process you often hear is that the product is prototyped and designed on the basis of prototypes and requirements documents, which belongs to the executee in cooperation with the product, passively accepts the requirements of the product and outputs the design draft according to the prototype. this will make the B-end design boring and do not reflect your value.

△ your current process

In practice, you can achieve and complement each other with the product. Participate in requirements mining, user analysis and research together with the product, which will be of great help to your understanding of the project and later requirements analysis, and can be combined with the product to consider what the fundamental problem is. What kind of design solution will I use to solve the problem, so that I will not become a tool for passively receiving information.

You need to have an in-depth understanding of the project, to see whether it is business support products or office cooperation similar products or merchant-side products, etc., first understand what it is, in understanding the user's operating habits and which ways are helpful to improve their efficiency. Usually, we should also pay attention to collecting their discussions, suggestions and opinions on products through the channels through which users speak. It is convenient for us to accumulate and classify the problems, and it makes it easier for us to think about the problems from a global point of view. When we start the design of related problems, we can design what users need more quickly and deeply. In addition, it helps us to provide data support in discussing some iterative experience optimization with the product.

Self-cultivation

The core competitiveness of B-end designers is the ability to solve problems, the ability to quickly understand and handle business, only with these capabilities, can we create more value.

B-end designers can exercise their value in these places:

1. Start with disassembly:

We usually encounter small requirements and large requirements (including multiple product modules and small requirements) in the design work. Small requirements are basically point-to-point requirements and do not need to be detailed and disassembled, so we will not say much here.

While large requirements usually contain multiple small requirements, we should adopt the method of simplifying complexity-- planning first and then starting work, disassembling design tasks, and systematically thinking about product tasks as a whole. after defining the product goal and design purpose, the requirement is divided into multiple stages, and then each stage is designed. When you split the task, you have already built in your mind about the future work, such as which areas are the core display areas, how much energy we need to spend, and which data maps will increase the downstream workload. Whether it has an impact on the overall progress, which details are secondary and spend the least effort, there may also be teamwork. This requires that we all have the same goals and norms.

two。 Start with solving the problem:

The construction of the background is inseparable from a set of powerful and unified UI specifications. Specification is not only the basis of visual unity of design, but also an indispensable tool to cooperate with the technical team to efficiently produce consistent experience.

When it comes to specifications, we have to mention components, which are created to prevent us from repeatedly building wheels and control the details of the control. Although there are mature components on the market, they do not necessarily fit with their own business characteristics, so we need to design based on the product characteristics of end B and our own business characteristics, with the design principles of flexibility, reusability and comprehensiveness. for example, we point out the relationship between distance and relevance of information in the relationship between vertical spacing and horizontal spacing in the custom setting of the head filter. Can more flexibly select the state we want to match, reuse the global use. Improve the efficiency of the R & D team and solve the details of visual consistency, saving time to do more meaningful things.

Design empowering

100% support for business needs is the job of design, so our added value is on "enabling". When it comes to enabling, we should talk about the cultivation of thinking at the beginning of the article, and the cultivation of thinking is the deep digging of demands. if we collect and think about problems, then we should take the initiative to conduct user research and explore the breakthrough points of demand. Find better solutions and more valuable driving points. Then we can also adopt this method to think about the empowerment of different projects, follow up the disassembly task, provide specification and component support, collect the value brought by this process, and review and summarize after the end of the project. gradually accumulate their own ability, and gradually build their own methodology to grow in the verification.

At this point, the study on "how B-end designers give full play to design value" is over. I hope to be able to solve everyone's doubts. The collocation of theory and practice can better help you learn, go and try it!
