FORT WAYNE, IN, November 27, 2008
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Joe Dager, owner of Business901 participated in the Effective Product Marketing program. The Pragmatic Marketing, EPM seminar explored outbound marketing roles, priorities and processes that characterize market-driven technology companies. The process was 2 intensive days of training in developing successful go-to-market strategies. The training took place this month in Tampa, FL.
The Effective Product Marketing course showed you how to quickly develop a convincing plan for anything from a single campaign to a strategic go-to-market initiative. It addresses what the sales team really needs now, and how to capture the marketing metrics that will permanently alter senior management's relationship to the marketing organization and budget with proper effective marketing programs.
Dager was introduced to the program after attending a webinar for Duct Tape Marketing Coaches by David Meerman Scott, author of The New Rules of PR and most recently the book TunedIn. "The Pragmatic Marketing Program specializes in marketing for manufacturers. Few programs address this market segment as well," says Dager. He also added, "I concentrate in the manufacturing segment and though this program is more suited for larger companies, I was amazed on how it adapted to my Duct Tape Marketing background. Small manufacturers can use many of these principles but they will have to be applied in a slightly different manner."
The Product Marketing Program addresses product line support for program strategy, sales readiness and channel support. It also discusses the interaction with Marketing Communications and Sales Management and the positioning of key market messages and launching products into market.
