I would start with learning more about the account. What are their company priorities and key initiatives? What personas are you meeting with and what are the pain points they’ve shared? What technology are they using today and what are their key areas of technology investments? I would go from there to put together the personalized pitch, highlighting the use cases and value prop that will resonate the most with the challenges they are facing.

It seems so hard to get account teams attention, then get a customers interest, then actually get a call scheduled to for persona, messaging, content, or user research. How do you handle the tradeoff between addressing many needs for one vertical vs. addressing 1-2 needs for multiple verticals?When does it make sense to lean into a dedicated vertical or industry marketing function? And once you decide, how do you get it off the ground? When is it the right time to invest in a robust industry marketing / product marketing motion, especially if it's a resource-constrained team? What are key certifications or courses to become a product marketing manager?Have you taken this course (productmarketingbootcamp.com)? I am looking to hone skills/knowledge in product marketing. Coming from content marketing and marketing ops, it hasn't been as easy to merge into PMM. Any other course recommendation is appreciated too!
