NivenPrasad commented 4 years ago

Software developers of all skill levels Motivations: Build personal portfolio - get attention from prospective employers or industry Skill practicing Learn how to create automations Meet other like-minded developers - network Improve reputation by association (preferential attachment) Giving back to the open source community Get and give feedback from peers through mentorship, advice, reviews Receive community support in keeping automations up to date Make automations more usable by creating distinct and well documented repositories

People with ideas for automation Motivations: Get the automation developed Share automation with others Get credit for an idea Validate feasibility

People looking for automations (Project Managers, Business Analysts, Portfolio Owners) Motivations: Accomplish something without replicating work Use something trustworthy

Employers Motivations: Find proven talent Review code

Open source advocates Motivations: Use 100Automations as a positive example of effectiveness of open source (Note from Ops meeting: could this firmed up? How does it compare to other solutions - what is the compelling value prop?)

Product Managers Motivations: Get publicity for their project by sharing an automation and having their project be the example of it in use Giving back to the open source community

How these people will participate: Developers will take on one of the tasks in the Participate section below Product Managers, Employers, Open Source Advocates will use the search function Open Source Advocates will direct traffic to the website

(Note from Ops meeting: how do we know these are good personas? People are using it. How do we prioritize these?)

(Note from Ops meeting: are there any wider buckets that could roll some of these facets up e.g. Community. ReadMe to be clearer on who is the main audience is)

PARTICIPATE Automations that need maintenance Automations that need refactoring Automations that need peer review Automations that need to be built Automations that need to be researched Automations that need advice

(Example Labels: Need: Maintenance or Need: Refactoring)

@NivenPrasad I added a lot of content from the above to https://github.com/100Automations/Website/projects/2. - lets talk about this at our next meeting.

NivenPrasad commented 4 years ago

Last remaining item is creating proto-personas from the cards in https://github.com/100Automations/Website/projects/2 This will be used as the basis for creating a new page that tells how each persona uses the site. Think landing pages to be used in marketing campaigns.

Personas should contain:

General list of things it could include for discussion if necessary.

  1. Characteristics
  2. Functions
  3. Industries
  4. Publications
  5. Job titles
  6. Tools
  7. Challenges
  8. An average day
  9. Goals
  10. Motivations
  11. Buying criteria
  12. Objections
  13. “Ah-ha” moments
  14. Why us?
  15. Keywords
  16. Recordings of interviews with real people from the persona group
