Show Notes Michael Smart

Over 25 years in the information technology and software industry in several executive positions with responsibility for product management, product marketing, development and operations for NASDAQ--traded companies in the internet and software industries.
In these roles I have successfully guided the development and launch of new products in the internet security, service management and mobile data software markets.
The most exciting and rewarding work I do is show marketing and product executives how to change the ground rules and win in the market with their solutions.
As a practitioner in product management, product marketing and product lifecycle management; I work with small and large firms to improve their go-to-market results.
I have delivered value to companies in the following areas:

Product Assessment- identifying the cause of potential revenue and profit leaks for the product. This is followed with recommendations for quick fixes with fast payback and long term strategies.

Product Transformation -defining new opportunities for existing products in adjacent markets through re-packaging and pricing options.

Specialties: Developing and implementing product lifecycle, product management and product marketing best practices in technology companies.

 

We talk about:

 

What is a product life cycle and what we should know before we talk about launching a product?

What is a product assessment and where do companies struggle with this?

How has launching a product changed over time in Silicon Valley?

What is it like to run a consulting agency?

 

And much more
