“John has conducted several training workshops with the goal of helping us to transition to a more customer focused approach to product marketing & development. The Product Management University framework really helped us understand the importance of customer goals in conjunction with needs and problems. John also facilitated open discussion sessions during a customer event. The discussion sessions were extremely well received by our customers.”
“I did a similar course with Pragmatic, but this course went deeper into things like addressing the “so what” factor and writing in the voice of the buyer/seeing the world through their eyes. The strategic, operational, and tactical understanding gave me a very strong 360 view of the target customer. I was already thinking this way but didn’t quite have the framework down. Thanks again.”
“I’ve established a framework that helps our Product Leaders consider sales and customer outcomes in ways that are more portfolio-driven. It helps create value boundaries around products as well. It’s great to see practical training around these principles throughout the Product Management University curriculum!”
“I love the messaging framework because it forces us to think like a customer before we think about our products. John did a great job of personalizing his training to our markets and we walked out with a complete value dialogue for our newest product. It’ll be really easy to apply this framework to other products going forward. John is a great instructor and I highly recommend his training.”
YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Product Marketing & Career Success
My top priority is that you understand how to apply B2B product and portfolio marketing practices to your everyday job, your products and your markets. That's why we do it together in the classroom so you won't have to figure it out after the training.
ONE FRAMEWORK
ALL DISCIPLINES. COMPLETE ALIGNMENT!
That's the whole point of our Customer Outcome Framework. To keep all customer-facing disciplines aligned to the goals and priorities of your customers so that everyone can do their part to eliminate the obstacles. For product marketing, that means the story you're using to generate demand is the same story sales is using to sell the products.
