Waking up in the morning.

Not in the “I wish I never woke up” kind of way. More of a “I like it here right now. I don’t want to stop doing this” kind of way.

Same with VP1. The worst thing I have to do is to wake so early in the morning. Don't get me wrong, waking up everyday is a blessing. But waking up at 5am after sleeping for 3-4 hours only is like torture. I hope this will only last for a few months. I am expecting in a change of schedule by the 3rd quarter of the year.

Writing cover letters even when people tell you it's no longer done. I feel like I get interviews only when I submit cover letters with my resume, especially for marketing roles.

Content planning. People don’t know how blessed, freeing, and time-saving it is to have a team help each other with that than one person trying to come up with stuff. I liked the fact one of my employers hired a team to work on each platform so we managers could get together and brainstorm ideas; it’s hard to do so with just myself at my current job

I don’t want things to go “back to normal,” and lately I’ve been reading what feels like a lot of disingenuous arguments for reopening “for people’s mental health.” As someone who was suffering from the way things were before and is now thriving from the slowdown (both in work and personal life), I wish we could all stop pretending like we were living in some mental health utopia before the shut down.

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on. It definitely wasn’t like this when I was a more junior PMM, but as a Senior PMM, my work-life balance has severely decreased. Is this just the nature of Product Marketing? Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?

Hi everyone! In your experience, what is the one tool / must-have / methodology any of your companies use to bring about a cohesive and comprehensive go-to-market strategy in the launch of new products and services? As a company scales, coordinating cross-functionally and across time zones is becoming increasingly challenging so we have identified that we need frameworks or tools to help us go-to-market in a less clumsy, more coordinated fashion. Would love to get your ideas on this.
