What you'll learn:

Why learn about product marketing? It’s the core of the marketing mix. If you are able to create and deliver a product that provides exceptional value to your target customer, the rest of the marketing becomes easier to manage. A successful product makes every aspect of a marketer’s job easier—and more fun. That’s because great products market themselves just by being great and starting viral, or word-of-mouth, marketing.

In this course you’ll learn why product is at the core of all marketing and explore real case studies. Without a great product, marketing can over promise an under deliver. A great product also means spending less on marketing, as consumers love telling others about the products the love.
