'Studio Connect' is the name of an invite-only app from Target that allows members to collaborate with product design teams and potentially, even see their ideas in stores.
The exclusive app is open to about 600 members, who are recruited by online research and receipt polls. Although Target's Studio Connect members are not compensated for being part of the collaborative community, they do have the potential to earn points toward discounts and gift cards.
As well-designed products solve pain points and meet the needs of consumers, it is crucial for brands to connect with their audience. This unique platform gives Target guests the chance to connect with designers at any stage of the design process, providing valuable input and feedback during multiple points of development.
