What is a Sounding Board session?
A Sounding Board session is an intensive, interactive consulting session that focuses on existing product positioning or messaging. A session is about five hours, structured like this:
- In the first hour or so, you present your material—it could be a briefing on a product, technology, or program. Two or more BDTI personnel (including one senior staff member) attend.
- After your presentation and some discussion of the goals, the BDTI team members confer with one another and coordinate their analysis and feedback. (BDTI recommends starting a Sounding Board session in the morning so that you may visit one of the nearby fine eateries at lunchtime while BDTI’s team performs its analysis and compiles its feedback.)
- BDTI will then present its findings, feedback, and recommendations. During this time, BDTI delivers its feedback orally and answers questions.
Alternatively, if the focus of your Sounding Board session is brainstorming, BDTI typically uses a round-table format. We will hash out ideas with you for up to five hours, and potentially identify opportunities for further analysis or collaboration. Brainstorm with us and you’ll come away with surprising new insights and exciting ideas.
