What do students say about the Product Marketing Bootcamp?
“It was amazing how Melinda was able to breakdown complex concepts into bite-size video clips. Other classes I've taken have been too high level or too narrow. The Product Marketing Bootcamp was the right mix of practical concepts, presented succinctly and with actionable examples and templates. I would definitely recommend.”
Sophia Fox, Product Marketing at Glassdoor
“The PMM Bootcamp is an interactive course that's well organized and very digestible. I found the product positioning section particularly useful and enjoyed using the worksheets to conceptualize what I had learned. As a product marketer at a growth-stage startup, it's easy to get caught up in the fast pace of your daily routine. This course was a helpful review of the foundational basics of product marketing.”
Taylor Wirfs, Product Marketing Manager at intent
“I applied the concepts from the Product Marketing Bootcamp to my job interviews, and I was able to recently join a new company as a Product Marketing Manager. The course material was very practical and relevant, especially for the tech industry. I was in a different industry before, but I was able to use the knowledge, terminology and frameworks to translate what I did into relatable stories.”
Fabio Hsu, Product Marketing Manager at ADARA
“This course is great because it is practical, with templates ready to go straight into the workflow of most companies. And the pace is great. You never get bored, yet you have time to reflect and learn. I have recommended this course to my entire team.”
Daniel Delviken, Brand & Communications Manager at Softube AB
Practical skills to launch with confidence
Great product marketing drives business growth by defining growth strategies and marketing plans that win customers.
But there are no practical guides on how to actually do product marketing.
There is no training on positioning, launch planning, or how the end-to-end process works. There are no guides to show you how to actually get stuff done.
I remember this when I was looking to transition into product marketing as a career and when I was a new product marketing manager.
I learned by practicing on the job and working it out through trial and error. Over time, I developed a process.
And as I started building and leading marketing teams, I taught them. People who came to me with backgrounds in design, sales, and customer care became marketers.
I enjoyed developing leaders so much that I started teaching, and now I'm bringing this class online to help more future marketing leaders.
So if you want to stop feeling like you’re winging it, and if you want to acquire practical skills and how-to guides so you can become a strategic product marketer and drive business growth, this class is for you.
