In January 2022, Coterie Baby had a fantastic product, a proven business strategy, and a roadmap full of opportunities. It was time to establish and quickly grow their product development practice. Their founder, Frank Yu, reached out to The Product Consult for help. Fast forward to Q4, and Coterie’s digital product development org is healthy, growing and continuously delivering valuable results. During our partnership, new orders have increased by 94%, new user adoption is up 25%, and returning users have increased 65%, all in 10 short months.
After two years of extensive R&D, Coterie and their team knew how to make the best diapers on the market. But they didn't know as much about building the technology that powers the sales, marketing, and support of their products. The nuances of digital products and technology are complex. Coterie recognized that they needed seasoned product leadership and hands-on product management support as they looked to stabilize, grow, and scale.

We immersed quickly, assessed opportunities for optimization, and provided a set of strategic and tactical recommendations to improve efficiency, transparency, and delivery. We created a cohesive digital product strategy and tailored operating cadence for the team to achieve their goals. Over the following months, we partnered with Coterie to establish and grow a best-in-class digital product org that delivers consistent value and will support Coterie’s continued growth.We also established best practice processes to enable efficient intake & prioritization of new work, created transparent communication channels, and brought on a full-stack development team to help execute the roadmap. We managed and launched Coterie’s newest product, The Pant, as well as their proprietary diaper-sizing quiz. The product development org has grown from 2 to 14 in 10 months, with additional key hires in-progress. Being embedded in the company for several months gave us detailed knowledge of Coterie’s hiring needs and culture, enabling us to hire their first in-house Product Manager and partner with them to build their long-term product team.
