Learning Launch 

 Challenge   I am a member of a charitable organization that focuses mainly on raising money for children   in orphanages across the country . The winter was coming and we wanted to raise money to   provide blankets and winter clothes for as many orphanages as we could , so the manager of   the organization divided us into teams and assigned a task for each team . Our team ’s task was   to go to a nearby school and sell snacks and candy to the children there and all the money we   collect will go to the local orphanages . We had only one week to collect the money we   needed before   giving it to the manager to buy the suitable supplies for the orphanages . 

 Raising money from children was definitely challenging for my team because we have never   done it before , besides these children already have a booth in their school that sells snacks   and candy so why would they buy from us ? However we accepted the challenge and thought   it was a great opportunity to learn something new . 

 Selection   Having gone through many design thinking tools , our team generated some ideas that we   wanted to test , so we selected the learning launch tool . A learning launch is quickly testing   your ideas on real customers to see how they would respond to these ideas and see if your   assumptions were actually true or needed to be reconsidered . The purpose of the learning   launch is mainly to learn and improve your ideas . 

 Application   We started the learning launch process by stating the assumptions that we made . When we   arrived at the school , we started observing and gathering information and as a result noticed   that the school had only one booth that sold snacks to all kids from grade 1 to grade 9 , the   kids of the first , second and third grade found it difficult to buy snacks or candy during the   break time because the booth was always crowded with the bigger kids , so our team had the   idea of carrying the snacks and candy in boxes and going to the little kids ’ classrooms to sell   them the candy . We called this idea “ The moving booth ” and we were determined to test this   idea as soon as possible . We started by just four classrooms , we sold our candy to the   children in the free time between their classes , and their reaction to “ The moving booth ”   confirmed our idea , the children were so happy and you could tell from their reaction that   “ The moving booth ” was what they needed for a long time . 

 After having these confirming data , we continued developing our idea and began to expand it   to reach all the classrooms of the school , we even sold snacks to some teachers who forgot to   bring their meals with them and were too busy to go to the school booth . “ The moving booth ”   was a success and in one week , we collected much more money than we had expected at the   beginning of this project . 

 Insight   The learning launch tool has definitely taught me and my team the importance of testing our   ideas and assumptions quickly and on a few customers at the beginning . When we began   testing our idea in four classrooms only , we were not worried about the failure of the idea 

 very much because we knew that if it failed , our failure would be fast and cheap .           Another thing I have learnt from learning launches is to look for facts only and to be able to   see what the customer really needs but ca n’t express properly , just like we did with those   children who really needed that moving booth but could not express that need . 

 Approach   After that amazing experience that had surely broadened my mind , I would definitely apply   the learning launch tool also next time because it saved our time , effort and money and   helped us get feedback from real customers at the very beginning of the project which   assured us throughout the project that we were on the right track .
