You should aim to identify your customer goals as early on in your product or feature development process as possible. Doing so will save you from working based on assumptions, and lead to better project management and decision-making. It’s important to build a culture of continuous learning when it comes to customer goals, so be sure to check in every once in a while to make sure your product plans still align with user needs.
