An insightful discussion and practical guide on how to put customers back into the center of your business model
With so many digital experiences touching our lives—and businesses—it’s understandable to feel like you’re drowning in data. There’s a dashboard or chart for just about everything, but data alone can’t help you understand and empathize with your customers. No amount of it will take you inside their heads, help you see the world through their eyes, or let you experience what it’s really like to be your customer. Only human insight from real people can do that.
User Tested gives both individual contributors and executives an approachable, pragmatic playbook for stepping beyond standard business metrics and infusing real human insight into every business decision, design, and experience.
In this book, you’ll:

Learn how businesses became obsessed with data—but disconnected from their customers—and why that’s not sustainable
Get the basics about how to capture human insight through user testing, including how to find the right people, ask the right questions, and make sense of and act on all the insights you uncover
Dive into a detailed playbook that shares real-world examples of how you can collect and scale human insight across the teams in your organization—from marketing to product, and beyond
Learn how to evangelize the power of human insight throughout your organization, so every department can create a culture of customer empathy and share a firsthand understanding of customer needs
Find out how companies like Microsoft, AAA Club Alliance, HelloFresh, and Notre Dame’s IDEA Center solidly connect with and elicit meaningful feedback from customers in friendlier, faster, and more direct ways

Perfect for any industry, User Tested: How the World’s Top Companies Use Human Insight to Create Great Experiences was co-authored by the chief insights officer and the CEO of UserTesting—a SaaS company fundamentally changing the way both B2B and consumer brands find out what real people think and feel. The book reflects the authors’ commitment to helping you position the customer squarely in the center of your business model by weaving their true voices throughout your company’s decision making.
Review
“This book highlights that we’re all living in the Age of the Customer—and that crafting exceptional customer experiences starts with listening to your most important stakeholders and turning feedback into true human insight.”—Zander Lurie, CEO of Momentive.ai“The real magic to designing truly customer-centered products is less about understanding what people do, and much more about why they do it. In this book Janelle and Andy provide tools, methodologies and most importantly, a mindset that will help you uncover the why behind the what.”—David Schonthal, Professor of Innovation & Entrepreneurship at the Kellogg School of Management & Author of The Human Element“As a product leader that prides myself on being strong analytically, there is no stronger lesson I’ve learned than you can’t spend enough time listening to your users. User Tested not only explains why but gives you the tips and tools to do it effectively.”—Ashish Desai, VP of Consumer Product, Handshake“Explodes the myth that you need more statistics to become smarter—especially in a world where customers are changing the rules.”—David Howland, Chief Marketing Officer, Earnix“This is not another book about business. It’s about humans and how you can reimagine your business with them at the center.”—Katrina Alcorn, leading design executive“The ‘experience economy’ is about a new era of buyer behavior. Much like the industrial revolution transformed the economy of the 1900s, we’re entering a customer-driven revolution that’s changing the way companies interact with consumers.”—Jonathan Perera, Chief Marketing Officer, Highspot“User Tested is a great reminder that while no business leader in their right mind would say that their compa
