Leaning on research and data to project the impact of new messaging and show internal teams why it will matter to customers is most effective. This could come in many formats - showing the potential size of the business opportunity or showing how customers are currently responding to messaging ar......Read More

This is by far one of my favorite questions (and most important). As PMMs, we have to go beyond talking about the feature functionality but orient on what the benefit is for the customer. A practice I take is by asking a series of questions that will help you narrow in and articulate the customer......Read More

I need to unpack this in therapy but for some not-yet-fully-explored reason, I hate messaging houses and marchitecture like that. Perhaps it feels like it's forcing structure. Perhaps it feels too permanent and untouchable (because it's housed??). Not sure. But I do concede that they can be usefu......Read More

If you're creating a two-pager sales enablement asset, always assume it will be shared externally at some point, so make it so that if it gets in the hands of a prospect, the branding is the same, and the information isn't confidential. Without knowing much about your product or audience, I woul......Read More

It's hard. Real hard. Many PMMs make the mistake of starting with messaging. This is a no-no. Messaging comes last and just puts words behind what was already decided. You have to nail this in sequential order. 1. First comes strategy 2. Then comes positioning 3. And finally comes me......Read More

How do you best structure and leverage beta releases to assist the product team (with iteration, feedback) and Product Marketing (positioning, messaging, enablement, onboarding)?
How do you collect information from users and disseminate between teams? What does an ideal timeline for a beta look like?

A bit of an “it depends” answer. Sometimes people use betas for QA: does the feature we built work end-to-end? Other times betas can help you determine if you’ve hit product-market fit with your product. And everything in between. It’s best to get super aligned cross-functionally at the KICKOFF ......Read More

If you speak the language of your audience, they will be engaged! I think it's a myth that technical topics are "boring" or "dry". These topics are VERY interesting to your technical audience, so mirroring their language on these topics is key. A few tips to help: * Be specific. For......Read More

When your product or solution isn't sufficiently differentiated, focus on the other key aspect of your positioning: the audience. Who is your product disproportionately better for? While many products in a given category may be highly similar, is there a user persona for whom your product is bett......Read More

I find that you have to: 1. Understand the audience, their problem, and how they currently solve it 2. Use that to define your product's key benefits and proof points 3. Once you have both the problem and solution well-defined, build your messaging. This is a high-level exercise that tells th......Read More
