Product Marketing is one of the most critical functions in businesses today - and yet the most mysterious. Many organizations have developed product marketing departments with varying goals and objectives. The benefits of product marketing range from getting crystal clarity on who the target customer is to helping internal stakeholders get aligned on the launch goals of the go-to-market strategy. Product marketing can deliver sustained business results while creating fans in customers that last a lifetime - if it is done right.
