When it comes to dinner planning, busy moms exist in four self evaluation modes. While moms are not bound to only one self-evaluation mode, each mode is characterized by specific behaviors with specific needs.
The data can be accessed at any point. Enter through: •b ehaviors to diagnose the selfevaluation mode of a mom •n eeds to determine criteria for succesful solutions •m odes to understand how each mode relates to another

Moms base their self-evaluation on perception not reality
OPPORTUNITY
Close gap between perception and reality Women put a lot of thought into planning dinner for their families, yet rarely have the ability to truthfully evaluate the outcomes of their dinner planning. Curves has a large opportunity to help moms close the gap between their perceptions of their actions and their actual actions.
Enable moms to use their own judgement Though busy, mom’s have strong opinions about what nutritional behavior is “right” and what behavior is “wrong”. The opportunity doesn’t lie in Curves imposing a scale of right or wrong behaviors, but instead in enabling individual women to more accurately use their own scale.

Remember not to impose a external scale of right and wrong on moms, instead help align moms’ actions with their own goals. Actions well aligned with goals
Actions misaligned with goals
Axis are based on moms self reports
Remember that the mode names are based on moms’ self evaluations and not on an external measurement of success.

Sona described pre-prepared meals as cheating, even after admitting it probably would be as healthy and much easier, she told us it felt like cheating, that she was driven by a deep guilt to cook and prepare a full meal for her family, because she knows how to.
Lacking ability to recognize positive actions Sofia shared her goal of cooking more home cooked meals and adding more variety. Moments later she told us a typical dinner involved her cooking four different meals from each member of the family.

NEEDS A personalized response to moms needs differentiates our offering Busy moms need integrated plans that recognize food is only one aspect of getting dinner on the table. Moms need flexible plans that adjust to their unpredictable life. By recognizing and responding to each of mom’s selfevaluation modes, Curves will be able to provide moms support at each inflection points of their variable life. Attention at each inflection point will give moms the ability to course correct and give Curves the ability to poise moms for success.
Traditional plans are linear but life isn’t Goal
Today
TRADITIONAL PLANS
Life is too unpredictable to plan Traditional nutritional support solutions provide a strict plan that the individual must follow. Though our research showed moms were enthusiastic about the idea of a ‘perfect’ plan, we repeatedly saw these plans fall short of moms’ expectations. The plans were too inflexible to match to their unpredictable life, therefore setting women up to fail. Click on the needs below to see more
