The market for cold storage is getting ready to heat up Image Credit: vistavision If you are like most people, you have started to get used to being able to log on to your computer and order up just about anything. What’s even better, is that what you have ordered seems to show up very quickly. What a lot of us don’t spend much time thinking about is where all of this stuff is coming from.

Expanding on a recent post ( Revenue Goals are Not Company Strategies ), I’ve been seeing lots of maker teams (product, engineering, design) struggling to form product strategies without a company strategy to hang them on. This is a recipe for failure: there are no generic product strategies or corporate strategies , and IMHO therefore no context-free prioritization models, metrics, or product goals.
Speaker: Scott Sehlhorst
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.

You’ll often hear Teresa say that there’s no single right way to do continuous discovery. Something she might not say as often (that’s just as true) is that there’s no single wrong way to do discovery , either.

I learned a lot about product positioning long before I ever stepped into a product marketing role. For the first four years of my software career, I was a pre-sales solution consultant, a.k.a. demo guy! I think of demos as verbal product positioning. The difference is demos are a two-way dialogue with buyers whereas product positioning in a pure marketing sense is typically a one-way monologue where potential customers are reading, viewing or listening to something you’ve published.

In the past decade, the field of product management has evolved, shedding much of its earlier ambiguity. Yet, it remains a domain rich in depth and diverse verticals. The spectrum of roles in product management is broad, ranging from highly specialised to more generalist positions. Whenever I chat with friends working as PMs in other companies, I’m time and again surprised by how diverse and sometimes different the role is from one organisation to another.

This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.
