Build a product marketing plan for launching a new product

You’ll learn about the four most prominent pricing models – cost-plus, value-based, competitor-based and dynamic pricing – as well as get to grips with OKRs and what types of OKRs product marketers should be using.

You’ll also discover how to use personas effectively as a product marketer, learning how to create your own and understanding the ‘jobs-to-be-done’ theory.

Discover modern-day product marketing examples and techniques

You’ll learn how to roll out, test, and iterate everything you do as a product marketing manager so that you can walk away with career-enhancing hacks and skills for product marketing today.
