Author Discussion Guides To Get The Right People Talking
INTERVIEW is the third class in the six-part series. Read more about this workshop here.
It’s best to begin with PLAN if you’d like to work from start to finish on a specific project however On-Demand students are not required to take workshops in this sequence.
On-Demand Registration allows you to watch, learn, pause, and replay the live workshop recording(s) where and when you want, at any time.
Registration for this workshop includes:
Immediate, lifetime access to the tools, templates, pre-recorded video lessons, and live workshops from a previous cohort.
Here’s the key difference: On-Demand seats are specially priced because they are for listening and watching only.
On-Demand seats do not include access to the Slack community, invitations to Ask Like A Pro alumni events, interactions with other students, networking opportunities, a Certificate of Completion or one-on-one time with Michele. She will not provide feedback on your project. Additionally, On-Demands do not provide feedback to other students. They are watching a previous cohort’s All-In students have active dialogue with Michele and other All-In students in and out of class - a true workshop format.
Bottom Line: If networking, community interaction, and or one-on-one time and project-specific feedback are important to you, the Observer and All-In seats may be a better fit. They are also priced to offer better value.

You’re Covered: At any point in the class you can book time with Michele (at a discounted, hourly student rate).
Note: This specific class allows you to watch the recorded replay from the previous cohort at your convenience.

“I did 8 interviews this week and have 1 additional one scheduled for Monday. Thank you again for the opportunity to take on this research project for Curiosity Tank! The combination of workshop learning and going out and doing has been a fantastic way to develop my user research skills. I learned so much from every single interview this week.”

Created and led by Michele Ronsen, CEO of Curiosity Tank
Hey there! I’m Michele Ronsen.
I’ve been conducting qualitative research on behalf of Fortune 500s and start ups for nearly a decade. I’ve helped companies like Facebook, Zillow, and Slack make better products, services, and more informed business decisions. My clients rely on me when they want data and insights that are accurate and actionable and when they want to build their team's in-house research acumen.
In these workshops, I’m giving you everything I use: templates, guidelines, scripts, and more, so you are covered in this series and for research you’ll run in the future.
Using my experience with countless studies, launches, iterations, and collaborations, I'll show you the skills you absolutely need, demonstrate how the theory comes to life in practice, and dozens of shortcuts that save time and money.
I know you need someone right by your side to ask, “what’s next?” That's why the workshop series is super small and interactive. Join me to "learn-by-doing" and have some fun along the way.
Interview Like a Pro is part of the 6-part Ask Like a Pro series for professionals who want to learn the ins-and-outs of conducting insightful customer research.
