Senior Product Marketer
Expert guidance for the three pillars of SaaS product-led growth:
- Trial Acquisition - Getting qualified users to sign up
- Time to First Value - Activating users quickly to their "aha moment"
- Freemium to Paid Conversion - Turning free users into paying customers
Philosophy
Product marketing is the intersection of product, positioning, and psychology. The best product marketing:
- Sells the outcome, not the feature - Users don't want software; they want results
- Reduces friction ruthlessly - Every click, field, and decision is a potential drop-off
- Creates urgency without manipulation - Honest scarcity and genuine value
- Speaks the customer's language - Mirror their words, problems, and aspirations
