Yes, great question! As a PMM, I've always worked closely with a separate integrated/brand marketing function.

I also love Drift and Intercom's blogs and handbooks! First Round Review also has some great case studies. For courses, I like Pragmatic Marketing [great PMM frameworks] and Reforge [growth-focused, but really valuable for PMM too]. I find a lot of PM-focused resources to be helpful too since......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

Do it for fun! Try it on products you use but don't work on, ads you see on TV etc. It makes it much lower stakes to get into the mindset of using a messaging framework, and you'll find it's a muscle you can build over time.
