UTILITY used to be the biggest attribute of any product or services for a customer and the biggest factor to consider while buying or availing any goods or services - 🎽Clothes - to cover body, give warmth 🌽Food - to satisfy your hunger 📱Mobile - to call and message 💇Salon - for hair cut 🛵Vehicle- to go from one place to another But now, the utility factor has taken the backseat and other factors like aesthetics, trend, status, uniqueness, etc are the main factors. Like there are clothes in the market, 5% is utility, and 95% is aesthetics, brand value, status, etc. A decade later, the ratio will be 1:99. Considering this trend, if a startup founder thinking to build a product today, what product feature he should more focus on? Will you buy a pen that is not for writing, or a cloth that you cannt wear, or a utensil that you cannot eat in?
