As a designer I can tell you that the two key questions you need to ask yourself are:
1. Is the product UX/UI design an essential core your product? i.e. Are you willing to listen to the designer if they have suggestions that may change the core of your product.
2. If so do you have the budget and long term prospects to hire someone full time? If you don't are you willing to give the designer shares in your company or a percentage of the profits?
Most geeks assume that the two core founders of a business should be a coder and a biz person — I disagree with that assumption: To me a product starts with good design, and without that code and biz doesn't mean anything.
- shrikanthr 16y agoWhile i totally agree with the approach you suggest towards making UX Design Route choices, the priority of usability design shouldn't be as high as core-architectural design, simply because driving you're application from usability towards functionality can never be a sustainable solution to the design of any product. For instance, no operating system can ever be designed with its user interaction in mind. While it does have a critical impact in OS design, there are far more critical issues that UI has no say over! That being said, it largely depends upon the impact of Usability on your product's overall outcome. Correct me if i'm wrong!
