For Launches
Let’s look at a product marketer’s responsibilities in each stage leading up to a product launch to get a better look at the life of a product marketer
 
Stage #1. Customer Development
Pre-launch, a product marketers job is to play a key role in defining the target market and understanding the potential customer.
 
Stage #2. Positioning & Messaging
After customer development, it’s the product marketer’s job to turn those learnings into something actionable. This typically comes in the form of a positioning document or a list of key messages. Product marketers try to answer these three questions with their positioning: Who is this product for? What does this product do? Why is this product different than what’s out there?
 
Stage #3. Teaching Out Positioning & Messaging
Now that positioning and messaging has been developed, it’s the product marketers job to make sure that everyone at the company knows it. Positioning won’t stick unless everyone is on the same page, so it’s important for product marketers to get buy-in and teach out they key messages across the organization.
 
Stage #4. Creating A Launch Plan
Product marketers own the creation of a launch plan, which typically involves various teams from across an organization, including traditional marketing, sales, support and more. At the end of the day, most product marketers are measured on demand (whether it be new signups, cross-sells or feature adoption) so creating an effective launch plan is critical to a successful launch.
 
Stage #5. Creating Launch Content
Launch content is the glue to any launch plan. Product marketers will work with almost every team inside of an organization on launch content, including everything from demo decks to product screenshots, sales materials, blog content, landing pages and website updates.
 
Stage #6. Preparing The Team
Internal communication can be just as important as external communication for a product launch. It’s the product marketer’s job to make sure the entire time is prepped and ready to go before launch. This usually means everything from making sure the website is ready to go live to making sure that the support team is ready to field calls.
 
Stage #7. Launch
The launch is the defining moment for a product marketer. This is when the rubber meets the road and customers start coming in — but the best product marketers are ready to adjust everything for a launch on the fly.
 
Expected Outcomes
 
The tangible results of the Sr. Product Marketing Manager includes:
- Buyer personas that provide structure and insight for a company.
- Positioning and messaging that that attracts and converts prospects and leads.
- Sales enablement materials that help reps close more deals.
- Competitive intelligence that gives the team a deep understanding of the market.
- Go-to-market strategy and launch plans that outline in detail how the product will be promoted and sold.
