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 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.
