Becoming a product marketing pro

The role of a product marketing manager is to act as the glue between marketing and product teams.

But navigating the ambiguity between two very different teams with unique (often competing) goals is never easy.

This course teaches you the skills needed to be a product marketing manager who builds alignment, wins sales and drives results.

What this course will teach you …

  • How to coordinate a product marketing launch to drive leads, sales and customer retention.
  • A framework for measuring and evaluating the effectiveness of product marketing on business growth.
  • How to use battlecards, flowcharts, and competitor analyses to make data-driven decisions and get internal buy-in.

After taking this course, you’ll:

  • Be able to build and launch high-impact product marketing launches for your company.
  • Develop messaging and positioning frameworks that make your product stand out and win sales.
  • Know how to turn product marketing into a conversion and sales engine for your company.
  • Create high-converting content that aligns messaging with customer needs and values.

Lucas’ technical skill set combined with results-orientation can make a difference to any marketing or business development team, and can help teams to substantially step up their productivity.
