Product Marketing - The Pragmatic Approach

Product marketing is not an all-or-nothing process. Some tactical tasks offer a quick return on investment but it is essential not to lose sight of the complete picture. Whether the assignment is a renovation of corporate and product positioning or a more strategic role such as product manager or marketing communications manager, the larger product marketing goals must be kept in mind.


The pragmatic approach is to solve the critical strategic problems at source while delivering tactical goals:

  • Discover true competences
  • Uncover prospect problems
  • Analyse the market & competition (SWOT)
  • Visit the buy-build-partner equation
  • Position to meet buyer pains
  • Upgrade product according to market evidence (not opinion)
  • Update sales & promotion tools accordingly
  • Evangelize as market demands
  • Manage customer churn rates, etc.


Following a mixed strategic & tactical approach ensure long-term, sustainable growth based on hard proven facts.
