Coming from 5 years working in B2B…

1) Talk to your core customers. Understand the users they serve and the criteria they use when they go to RFP or internal committee.

2) Make sure sales training is there, as B2B products don’t sell themselves, even with Marketing. Make sure sales has input on your key talking points.

3) Know the industry and how customers expect solutions like you used to be positioned (it’s not D2C, so they’re thinking from an enterprise standpoint what is your brand, what is the service you can deliver, and in what ways can they trust you). Then break the mold, or figure out how you’re going to change the message.

So our CEO asked me and a colleague to give a Start/Stop/Continue Mid-year review of our CIO who’s been our Head of Product for a few months (Our Head of Product left because of him when that guy came in)

We have a lot to say and none of the PMs approves the way he operates.

My concern is that it’s meant to be transparent but if we’re honest and he gets called off, he will figure out it comes from us.

Never been in that situation before, is it better to be completely honest or a bad idea?

I got invited to a second round interview with a big company. The title sounds more senior than my current title, but the work responsibilities feel like a step down. I am wondering if I should still interview (to see if they will consider me for my desired role instead or at least, get some interview practice for when a better opportunity comes along). Thoughts? Is it ok to reject the offer if they make one, on the grounds of the role not being a good fit for me.
