The Jobs to Be Done of beauty and grooming turn out to beautifully simple.
Let’s play a quick game. On average, how many times a month do you engage in beauty or grooming-related behaviour?
It’s kind of like guessing the number of M&Ms in a jar, but instead, counting how many times people shower. Or brush their teeth. Or take their vitamins. Or have a good laugh with friends. Does working out count? What about applying hand cream or using dental floss or lipstick?
You get the picture.
