The Heart of Product Marketing: Customer-Centricity

At the core of product marketing is a deep focus on the customer. According to a study by Salesforce, 84% of customers say being treated like a person, not a number, is very important to winning their business. Building strong relationships, being approachable, and understanding customer pain points are essential. Now, the question is how to keep product marketing customer-centric:

  • Engage with your customers through surveys, social media, and direct feedback. According to Gartner, 64% of companies that use customer feedback and data effectively can improve customer satisfaction and retention.
  • Focus on how your product solves real problems for your customers. Highlight benefits over features. 
  • Be transparent, reliable, and empathetic in all customer interactions. According to Edelman’s Trust Barometer, 81% of consumers say trusting a brand is a deciding factor in their purchase decisions.

We recently spoke to David Tishgart, Director of Product Marketing at dbt Labs, about his experience and journey in product marketing. Starting his career in broadcasting, where he thrived on the energy of live reporting and anchoring, David transitioned into public relations to help startups gain media exposure. However, it was in product marketing that he found the perfect blend of storytelling, customer engagement, and strategic thinking. At the heart of his approach is a deep focus on customer-centricity, emphasizing the importance of building strong relationships and understanding customer needs. 

Leveraging AI and Data for Precision

The future of product marketing lies in leveraging AI and ensuring high-quality data. AI can help marketers understand customers better, tailor messaging more effectively, and predict market trends. AI-driven analytics can provide deeper insights into customer behavior and preferences. According to PwC, 72% of business leaders believe that AI will be fundamental in the future of marketing. 

AI can also help optimize campaigns in real-time, and in the future, AI will be used to run over 50% of all marketing campaigns to increase efficiency and effectiveness.

Full-Funnel Marketing Attribution in Product Marketing Analytics

Full-funnel attribution provides insights into how different marketing channels and touchpoints contribute to conversions, allowing marketers to make more informed decisions and optimize their strategies.
