The ‘long neck’: Management focus
How much relative
resource to apply
Which user tasks
to focus on.
“Strategy renders choices about what not to do as
important as choices about what to do... Some
managers mistake ‘customer focus’ to mean they
must serve all customer needs or respond to every
request...”

1. Make it clear which fields are
mandatory
2. Have clearer password
strength indicator (or
requirements)
3. Fix ‘inconsistent address
combination’ errors
4. Reduce the number of form
fields
22 mandatory fields
and selections
12 mandatory fields
and selections
Shorter form has cumulative impact:
•Participants are less likely to skip fields – they
don’t even THINK about which fields are
mandatory!
•Fewer opportunities for poor design / for users
to make mistakes
•Shorter time on form, so less likely to hit 5-
minute Time Limit completing the task
And – probably:
•People are more likely to Register
•Fewer calls to help desk
•Fewer abandonments

• We have a model of the contribution of the web – as
one of many channels – to the business bottom line.
• We have priorities from the customer perspective –
their top tasks.
• We have performance benchmarks.
• We have data on the performance and potential for
improvement – where the biggest bang for the buck
is.
• We can prioritize our actions and reliably calculate
what the score will be when problems are fixed.
• Thus, we can set annual goals. Goals that are
empirical, measurable and that accurately reflect the
user experience of the site.
“You can prove you’re managing the
website, not the other way around.”
