1. Collect User Feedback
Use multiple channels to gather comprehensive data:
a. Feedback Channels

- Website Widgets (e.g., Hotjar, Feedbackify)
- Emails & Support Tickets
- Social Media Comments
- In-app Feedback Tools
- Online Reviews
b. Question Types
- Quantitative: Ratings, multiple choice (e.g., “Rate our service from 1–5”)
- Qualitative: Open-ended (e.g., “What could we improve?”)
2. Analyze the Feedback
Process and interpret the data to uncover patterns.
a. Quantitative Analysis
- Use tools like Excel, Google Sheets, or BI tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau)
- Identify trends from metrics (e.g., low satisfaction scores in a certain feature)
b. Qualitative Analysis
- Use text analysis methods:
- Thematic Coding (group comments into themes)
- Sentiment Analysis (positive, neutral, negative)
- Tools: ChatGPT, NVivo, MonkeyLearn
3. Categorize Feedback
Organize feedback to understand what needs attention.

4. Turn into Actionable Insights
Translate findings into priorities:
a. Prioritize Using Impact vs. Effort Matrix
Classify each issue:
- Quick Wins: High impact, low effort
- Major Projects: High impact, high effort
- Fill-ins: Low impact, low effort
- Postpone: Low impact, high effort
b. Report & Share
Create a summary report:
- Key themes

Use visuals (charts, word clouds) for better communication.
5. Act & Monitor
