This is a great video but honestly, everything you described in this video doesn't really map onto the role of a PMM at any company that isn't at the scale of a Google/Apple/Meta etc. Having worked at one of these companies myself, in a product commercialization role, a PMM at Google is much more similar to a brand, event, or content marketing manager in a smaller operation. PMMs at startups are far closer to a Global Product Lead at a big tech company. They're responsible for translating the voice of the market for their product management org and taking product to market when a roadmap item is ready to launch.

@JeffSu Месяц назад

@@divinemeta You're 100% correct!!!

@andyduty100 Год назад

As a PMM I've realised we need to wear multiple hats - of the manager, the planner, the content writer, the executor, the sales person. It's truly the epitome of hustling and there's constant learning from cross functional communications along the way. Similar to Product Managers, the PMM also needs to work with members from all teams to understand the product, the business and the market.

@calleighlin5179 Год назад

How we product marketers spend our time is very accurate. Most often we're stuck in meetings, communicating with stakeholders using the decks we've created in our alone time. Sometimes it gets a bit frustrating when I feel I'm just bridging communication and not seeing any real impact on the End Results, but once I've completed a full project and use insights and data gained from that project to improve the next, that is when I find my work the most satisfying.

@JeffSu Год назад

@Pencilman246 Год назад

When I first became a PME (product marketing engineer) at a semiconductor company, there were very few resources about what that role entailed. And my role there was very much a mix of product management and product marketing, defining roadmaps, creating sales enablement docs and pitching to customers, project managing the development and then doing the go to market planning, plus pricing and digital marketing and keeping old products profitable. It was a lot. Now I’m in a more traditional PMM role at another tech company and I enjoy that there’s a lot more content out there about the job, but even my job now is very different from what you described. It’s a very flexible title that changes depending on industry and company, very cool to see how different people define their roles.

@JeffSu Год назад

Oh that's awesome, thanks for sharing your experiences Ben! What did you think about this tech PMM role explanation? haha

@luwileo Год назад

Thanks Jeff for the video. It’s concise but jam packed with lots of good stuff. I’m not a PMM but a lot of the things you covered are really applicable in other roles as well such as stakeholders engagement and comms channels and selling a solution beyond a product.

Welcome back, Jeff. Love the video and inviting us into your world as a PMM. When you/your team does market research, is there a specific resource you use to get the info you need and how do you decide on what to research for?

@JeffSu 2 года назад

Taking a week off felt weird, but super refreshing! Great question regarding marketing research - It depends on the product and product lifecycle, but for me, I work on App campaigns under Google Ads (I help app developers reach more users) so I would look at reports from App Annie, Appsflyer, eMarketer, Statista etc. But that is in no way a comprehensive list. If you're working on hardware devices for example, you might rely on free resources like Engadget or paid in depth newsletters like Stratchery

@Andrea_Dong 2 года назад

Welcome back, Jeff! Hope you had a nice break and thanks for sharing about your experiences and work as a PMM :3 And I think it’s really impressive how you’re able to use data to say no! I feel it takes a lot of skill to be able to say no in a cooperative and value-added way :3

@JeffSu 2 года назад

Trust me Andrea, most professionals struggle with saying no (I still do sometimes!), and I often find that since it's hard to dispute with data, using that to say no is more effective!

Hey Jeff, great video on PMMs! Been following you for a while now (Unreal productivity tips!) You mentioned you've got FB,MS, TikTok, and Amazon ads as competitors. How do PMM's like yourself keep up to date with your competitors products? I speak with PMMs every day and they typically find collecting all of that intel is manual, goes stale quick, and hard to get sales and product teams to adopt all that hard work they put into making collateral!

@JeffSu 2 года назад

That is an excellent question Jeremy. The short answer is I subscribe to reports (from App Annie, eMarketer for example) that keep me up-to-date. I'm also very lucky to have extremely smart colleagues (in product and research teams) who seem to know everything about our competitors and catch up with them regularly

@Christiana-J 2 года назад

Welcome back Jeff! Two questions about PMM: 1) in 4:52, you mentioned "data-driven decision", would you say data-driven decision is different than data-informed decision? 2) in 6:21, "gather user feedback", maybe your team sends in-app or email survey for users, but not everyone fills that out; would the feedback actually be considered biased given that can be convenient sampling? Thank you!

@JeffSu 2 года назад

1. I think it's just semantics at this point (data-driven vs. data-informed). It depends on the actual insight you draw from looking at the data 2. Could be market research as well. And it's also up to us to figure out how to increase engagement and participation. To give an extreme example if you get US$ 10,000 to fill out a post-event survey very few people will leave it empty 😉

@Christiana-J 2 года назад

@@JeffSu hey thank you so much for taking the time to answer them! 1. Right, I think it depends on the team context when using both terms. I was recently told “data-informed” is we look into data and learn what data tells us, and how we can do better next time. I personally would say “data-driven” can be for forecasting, “data-informed” is more for post-event recap. But definition definitely varies depending on the context. 2. I skip all money-incentive surveys myself 😂😂😂 99.7% of them have a fine print “for a chance to win”

Good question Arha - By tech do you mean coding? Because for majority of PMM roles, you don't need a coding background (whereas for PMs, you do).

@PeterCorless 3 месяца назад

First, only the rarest of the rarest Product Marketing Managers are going to be standing on stage at WWDC or Google Next or other top-tier industry event. Most will never set foot on that stage. So you have to consider: "what industry events *can* my company show at and make a difference?" You also need to ask if it is an earned appearance [free invite to the stage] or a pay-to-play appearance, such as being a gold or platinum sponsor of an event. Also, events usually involves whole teams beyond PMM itself - field marketing, developer relations, sales and event marketing and/or corporate communications. PMM is only one ingredient in a huge big tent event. As far as PMM work, you will need to divide your time between media: written works [blogs, case studies, web pages], videos/webinars/podcasts and even animations, and so on.

Good question Guilherme! I started off as an account manager (aka sales team) working on Google Ads (helping businesses with their advertising/marketing strategy). Then since the PMM role needed someone with Google Ads background, I leveraged that experience to land the PMM role. Even if you're not a sales person, you can take free online courses on Google Ads, Tik Tok Ads, Meta Ads etc.

Can you get into PMM in big tech when you start out of college in your opinion ?

@JeffSu 2 года назад

Depends on the company. For example some companies have the APMM (associate product marketing manager role) geared towards junior marketers. To be very upfront about my experience, I'm glad I was in consulting and sales before being a PMM because so many skills I learned from my previous roles are applicable to me now. I don't think I would have done as well if I joined as a PMM out of college (but again, I didn't take any marketing courses in college)

Hi, I’m thinking about starting a RU-vid channel in the next two months. Do you have any tips? Don’t worry I will not self promote.😁

@JeffSu 2 года назад

Watch Ali's RU-vid videos on starting a RU-vid channel (I think it's a great starting point). If you realize you're 100% serious, go sign up for his PYTA class

I really appreciate the video and you showing visuals for me to better understand. My question for you Jeff is, What do you have to major in to become a PMM?

@JeffSu Год назад

I was a finance major and I ended up as a PMM so I'm inclined to say "major doesn't matter" BUT in reality I'm sure having a marketing background would be beneficial 😁
