Are you making product decisions without market data?
Is opinion driving your product decisions? Do many conversations about features begin with "I think users would want..." or "If I was using this product...", or "We have a great idea..."? Do you spend hours arguing in meetings about whether feature A or feature B should be in the product? Opinion should have no place in product decisions. Remember, your opinion, although interesting, is irrelevant! Market data should be the only authority about features and product functionality.
What you need is a way to make sure information from outside the company determines what to build next. Listening for prospect problems is the most important task a product manager can perform. Arming yourself with market facts about the issues current or potential customers are experiencing gives you the ability to speak with authority in any product-related discussion.
