Building the products your customers want and earning PMM a seat at the table.

about me

I'm Courtney, a strategy-minded product marketing leader

My mission is to make product marketing a strategic powerhouse in the organization. 

So often product marketing is misunderstood and underutilized. This can result in rushed launches, ineffective product development, lack of engagement, and ultimately diminished ARR.

Throughout my career I’ve demonstrated the ability to bring teams together to transform the PMM function and earn a seat at the table. 

My approach

Earning PMM a seat at the table

As product marketers, we are experts on the product, our customers’ businesses, the market, and the competition – there is no function better positioned to identify opportunities for the business than PMM.  

Here’s my unique approach to adding value and becoming an indispensable strategic partner. 

launch

Conduct cross-functional launches that ladder up to company goals and drive revenue.

Influence

Generate insights based on research to influence the roadmap, ensuring we launch products that expand the TAM.

Advise

Crystalize feedback from cross-functional stakeholders into actionable recommendations for sales, marketing, and finance executives.

Advocate

Represent the Voice of the Customer to inform internal strategy and create GTM strategies that speak to customer pains and needs.
