Product Marketing Misunderstood: How to Establish Your Role, Authority, and Strategic Value Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 102 ratings

Product marketing is not a new function. Just like sales, accounting, and so on, it’s been around for decades. The only difference is perception. Ask anyone what a sales rep does, and they’ll tell you they sell stuff. Ask about product marketers and…you’ll get wildly different answers at best, blank expressions at worst.

Anyone who really knows product marketing understands the tremendous value it adds to organizations, but not enough people seem to get it, which can make it notoriously hard for product marketing managers (PMMs) to get the recognition they deserve.

Product Marketing Misunderstood helps you apply the tools of your own trade to your job—positioning, messaging, research, personas, and more—helping your entire organization value what you do.

Created by the founder of the Product Marketing Alliance, this essential guide arms you with the tools you need to show colleagues past, present, and future that product marketing lies at the heart of your company.

Great summary of what Product Marketing is in its totality. Helpful tips on how to explain what Product Marketers do and how to "sell" the role of a Product Marketer to the company, including great resources that can be customized. Loved the reminders on how to set yourself up for success when starting at a new company. Easy, understandable, and relatable (at least for someone who has been in PMM for some time).
Now we need a deep dive to learn more about all the aspects of Product Marketing.

As an experienced PMM, I definitely related to a lot of the frustrations of not being valued. Or well, I should probably say "not valued like you should".
Although it started quite generic, which makes sense for those who are not that familiar with product marketing, I really enjoyed how it went into more and more depth, giving actionable tips that you can use straight away!
My favorite chapter is the one that takes a look at facing resistance in your organization.
Definitely recommend.

Product Marketing is a complex and constantly evolving subject. This book brings clarity to one of the most misunderstood roles in an organisation. Amazing insights not just for PMMs, but also for anyone in an organisation who wants to improve their relationship with product marketing.
