    In another response, I talked about the "Product Marketing Guide" -- this is intended to be an evergreen(ish) document that includes everything from foundational product positioning, to pricing, to competitive information, and a glossary of terms among other details that can be easily shared with your broader marketing team and other cross-functional partners.
