    If a product doesn't align with your customers' wants and needs, then even the most clever ads and blog posts can't help it take off. Product marketing—the sum of all the efforts necessary to research, message, position, promote, and support a product—is concerned with making sure that you create and launch a product that matters. In this course, Brad Batesole goes over the foundations of product marketing, explaining what it actually involves and how to excel at it.
