There is of course a ton out there for patient communications such as patient journey mapping but engaging HCPs is a very different beast. Looking for something a bit more nuanced than a traditional consumer framework. Thanks!

Product marketing managers that work in an established/growing tech companies, what’s your day to day at work like? I’m currently a PMM with an early stage startup wearing multiple hats. I’m curious to learn the difference between PMMs at early stage startups and growing/established companies.

I have an offer from TikTok and Microsoft. TikTok is higher pay but worried about work life balance. Both jobs are product marketing. Help!!! Should I go for the $$$$?

Started a new PMM role this week and my manager, a VP, has no bandwidth to onboard me to anything. Has anyone been in the same boat, and if so, how did you go about onboarding yourself to a new product/portfolio?

Any suggestions on how to answer these interview questions? Thanks!

Started a marketing company trying to figure out how to actually get my clients on the first page on Google. Any advice?

I just got an offer from a company that I have mixed feelings about. Team seems great but Glassdoor reviews, not so much. I’m currently interviewing with a couple of other companies that are amazing and would be my too choices. However, I’m very early in the process so it will probably take a month or so to get to the offer stage with them. I don’t want to fall between two chairs for not taking this offer and then not getting any from other companies. What should I do? Best strategy?

What should I pay a part time PMM at a Series A funded, Y Combinator-backed Fintech SaaS startup working 20 hours a week whose job it is to assist the CMO (me) with setting up and managing a product marketing function? This person will be the 7th hire, the second marketer, and will grow into a full time role (if they want it) as we scale. I myself just completed PMA's Product Marketing Core Cert, but I can't do it all myself and run Demand Gen and Mar Ops. Also HM experience should I require?

I’m an Account Manager looking for a career transition into Product Marketing, what steps should I take?

Any tips on starting a side project to boost my chance of getting hired as a PMM?

Should I take this role?
Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)

I'm two thirds through the PMA Core Certification, and the info is great but the tests are a joke. They need to contract with an educator that specializes in testing and assessment to come in and develop exams that actually measure if you know the material. The bad test design devalues the certification. Not to zero, but I definitely will not be proud to have earned it. It just means I had $1300 and sat through 15 hours of video lectures.
