The PMM Horror Stories LIVE for Halloween w/ Michele Nieberding
The worst thing about being a PMM is not having to launch a new product within 2 weeks, or drowning in sales decks. It’s all sharing the same trauma that people don’t understand product marketing.
We’ve seen a lot of movement on LinkedIn about PMMs sharing horror stories. Michele Nieberding even did a talk about it at PMA Boston.
And we were lucky enough to have her sharing them on the pod, just in time for Halloween 💀 our FAVORITE HOLIDAY 🎃
Michele, the director of product marketing at MetaRouter, spent almost a decade in product marketing and loves Halloween, we’re talking about:
Combining new brands, products and segments
Freemium to Screemium
Failed launches and disastrous rebrands
Product enforcement gone wrong
A bunch of jokes and fun things
Start feeling better about your role and discover horror stories for PMMs that would scare even ghouls and ghosts!
