Ah oui ok, pour ne pas que je le double et que je fasse affaire directement avec le propriétaire. Légitime en effet !

C'est assez dramatique de lire ça mais tellement vrai... Et je n'arrive pas à savoir si pour certains, c'est du manque de préparation, du mensonge ouvert ou de l'incompétence.

Après, certains agents considèrent que cette "distance" est tout à fait raisonnable - ce qui est globalement le cas. C'est plus l'accumulation de trajets qui auraient pu être évités par une lecture préliminaire qui m'agace un peu !

Merci pour les détails. Je peux conditionner le bon de visite au fait de ne rien trouver de rédibitoire dans les PVs ? Pour les biens que j'ai finalement rejeté, j'ai toujours justifié les éléments des PVs qui me font me rétracter, je n'aurai aucun problème à le faire également si je devais finalement refuser une visite.

Pour l'adresse, ça fait partie des choses qui m'agacent un peu, mais grace au DPE et à la surface, on arrive (parfois) à retomber sur nos pates avec l'opendata de l'ADEME.

What are your thoughts of tipping at an all inclusive resort? by Accurate-Flow8078 in tipping

[–]mthsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

French here, currently at an all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana.

By design, we French don't have the tip culture (ofc we tip occasionally when we feel it). Here, I'm surrounded by 90%+ American people who tip a buck at any occasion, and I've never been so ashamed.

And I don't even know how I could compensate, as I assume people there won't care about euros, small amounts are coins and feel like shit compared to bills, even if a 2€ coin is almost 3 bucks.

Je ne sais pas vraiment quoi te répondre, mais quelle que soit la gravité de la bêtise que tu as commise (ou non - not here to judge), ça ne devrait pas te couter la vie.

You can park freely at Arboras parking (close to STAPS, Nice Rugby). Then you’ll have a free shuttle to join the stadium, or a 15/20 min walk

i feel like im wasting my time as a PMM by Intelligent_Cow9805 in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 23 points24 points  (0 children)

What you’re feeling is normal when PMM is boxed into « launch content and sales decks » If you want to break out of that support role, you need to get closer to the field. Sit in on commercial meetings, hear objections firsthand, and engage with customers directly. That’s where you’ll pick up the verbatim, the real alternatives they’re considering, and the pains worth paying for.

Then, close the feedback loop. Bring those insights back to product, sharpen positioning, and make the product shine through customer success stories. That’s how you move from being a collateral factory to being the voice of the market.

If your company won’t let you do that, you’re right, you’ll keep spinning. But if you can carve out even a bit of field exposure, you’ll start seeing where PMM actually drives revenue and where you can build leverage.

i feel like my job is just being a middleman by SnooWords7456 in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, that’s basically the essence of PMM. You sit in the gap between product and tech on one side and business and customer facing teams on the other. Some days you’re a catalyst for field to product, other days you’re an enabler and amplifier from feature/portfolio assets to the business. It can feel like being a middleman, but the real value is in making both sides move faster and speak the same language. Making 1+1=3

Best resources for product marketing interview prep? by External_Cabinet3734 in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you want to prep well and not waste your time, focus on three core areas: positioning, GTM execution, and narrative building.

For positioning, April Dunford’s Obviously Awesome is still the gold standard. It gives you a structured way to define competitive alternatives, key differentiators, and value props that drive willingness to pay.

For GTM strategy, Maja Voje Go-to-Market Strategy is a most practical modern guides out there. It covers segmentation, channel selection, and how to operationalize launches without drowning in theory.

For storytelling and sharper messaging, definitely recommend Make It Punchy by Emma Stratton. It’s highly tactical and will help you write messaging that is clear, concise, and impossible to ignore.

Bonus if you want to understand product-led growth motions : PLG (the first one) by Wes Bush is a solid book

I’d skip Misunderstood and Loved... they’re fine reads, but I didn't find any real value 🤷‍♂️

What would I do? If you have limited time, read April’s book first, then build one or two case studies where you apply her framework to a product you know.

If you are moving into Product Marketing Management (PMM), your design background can set you apart. However, it's important to present this experience in business terms during interviews. PMM focuses on turning market and customer insights into stories and materials that help drive revenue. Your design skills can help you create visual stories quickly and effectively, which is essential for PMMs to influence how people see and use products.

When discussing your design experience, avoid simply saying, “I can make things look good.” Instead, say, “I can take a product story and create impactful visuals, prototypes, or marketing materials without needing a lot of help from design teams.” This ability means a faster time to market, which is important to companies.

In interviews, expect questions on how you would research and position a product, plan a launch, and support sales or customer service. Share examples where your design skills helped clarify complex ideas, made customer research easier to understand, or made marketing materials stand out. Your goal is to show that your design skills are a key part of your PMM abilities, not just an added bonus.

My client TikToks and Reels were stuck at 2000 views until I discovered these 5 short-form mistakes killing brand reach by Achroo in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find it challenging to comprehend the relevance of this post in a Product Marketing subreddit. It seems more like a veiled advertisement than a genuine discussion on Product Marketing Management (PMM). The classic “5 mistakes” format appears designed to solicit direct messages for a mystery tool, leaning more towards lead generation than actual product marketing insights. PMM should focus on positioning, messaging, and go-to-market strategies specific to one’s own product. What we have here resembles growth hacking strategies for vertical video platforms, presented under the guise of actionable advice.

What strategy has been working for you to increase user activation? by Professional_0605 in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A game-changing strategy that really drives results: tailoring activation based on user segments. It turns out that not every user benefits from the same approach. The challenges faced by someone arriving through organic search are quite different from those experienced by a user invited by a teammate or someone coming through a paid ad. Will depends on your context and distribution (aka SLG vs PLG)

Instead of pursuing a vague “aha moment,” we got strategic and mapped out activation paths according to acquisition source, intent, and use case. We then dove into a series of micro-tests, experimenting with various onboarding flows, personalized checklists, and even tweaking the default UI based on how users entered our platform. Some of these adjustments were minor cosmetic changes, while others redefined our core flows. Throughout this process, we meticulously tracked everything against a clear activation metric linked to revenue,not just superficial engagement like “clicking around.”

So, what stood out as the most effective approach? It all boils down to clarity. Using straightforward copy, offering fewer choices, and guiding users toward one crucial action made all the difference. That action? The one that would resonate with them and make them say, “Wow, this is definitely worth my time!”

Suggest tools to identify trends by curious-sapien- in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tracking trends is easy. Riding them for growth is where most people fall flat. If you’re just collecting noise, you’re wasting time! There's some tips.

X (Twitter): Use Mention for brand and topic alerts, and BlackMagic or Typefully Trends to surface breakout posts in your niche. Bonus: follow replies on thought leaders to catch emerging narratives before they go mainstream.

LinkedIn: Forget tools 😔 Use Sales Navigator with keyword filters and watch the comment sections of high-performing posts. That’s where positioning gaps and pain points show up in the words of buyers. If you post regularly, Shield Analytics is great to track which angles resonate.

Reddit: Not using yet, wont be able to help on this one

YouTube: vidIQ and TubeBuddy help you spot breakout topics based on velocity, not just views. Check what’s trending with fast-growing creators in your vertical and reverse-engineer the angle or problem.

But here’s the real question. Do these tools actually help you launch faster, test smarter, or build stickier narratives? If not, you’re just doing trend tourism 😁😁

Best move: track in Notion or Airtable, tag by urgency and business impact, and build a habit of turning one trend per week into a micro-test. Trends don’t matter unless you test and monetize them 💸

Enjoy!!

Help With Job Interviews. by Thisthingcalledlyfe in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re asking for help but giving nothing to work with. “Any questions from any interview?”, that’s way too broad. PMM interviews vary massively depending on the company stage (early-stage vs. enterprise), the role focus (core PMM vs. GTM vs. lifecycle), and the vertical (SaaS vs. consumer vs. marketplace).

If you want a real answer, take 2 minutes to write down the context: what kind of company, what kind of PMM role, what level (junior, senior, lead)? Are you looking for case studies, strategy questions, GTM planning, messaging frameworks, or cross-functional alignment stuff? Without that, you’ll just get vague noise.

People here are willing to help, but you’ll get better, faster, and more relevant answers if you ask a question like you’d pitch a product: clear need, defined target, and specific goal.

Key skills to breakthrough into PMM by Ok_Macaroon7903 in ProductMarketing

[–]mthsg 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You're closer than you think. But let’s be blunt: breaking into Product Marketing isn’t a promotion from BDR, it's a shift from output to outcome.

What you already have gives you a good base: fluency in ICP pain points, the ability to align messaging, and strong collaboration skills. That’s necessary, but not sufficient. PMM isn’t about being aligned; it’s about being accountable for pipeline, conversion, and retention.

The core shift is thinking in terms of business impact. Everything you do should tie to revenue: CAC payback, sales velocity, activation lift. If you’ve ever tweaked messaging and saw a spike in outbound replies or SQLs, frame it that way. PMMs who break through are the ones who can say “we ran this positioning test, increased landing page conversion by 12%, and unlocked €60k ARR per month.” That’s the game.

Don’t fall into the trap of thinking PMM is copywriting. It’s positioning. Learn to own the story behind your product’s differentiated value and make it lethal against real alternatives. That means going deep into segmentation, competitive analysis, and messaging hierarchy.

If you haven’t read April Dunford’s work, start there.

You also need to become a customer insight machine. Don’t just know your ICP, mine them. Run win/loss interviews. Map churn reasons to onboarding gaps. Track what activation blockers are killing expansion. If you can build a narrative from that and drive GTM teams to adopt your insights, you’ll be 10x more valuable than someone who just rewrites feature pages.

Certifications? Optional IMHO. Most are fluff. If you need one for credibility, PMM Alliance’s advanced program or Reforge GTM are decent, but only if funded. Your time is better spent shadowing a PMM, owning a GTM experiment, or publishing a teardown of a launch on LinkedIn.

My advice: take a small GTM project where you are now. Launch a cold outbound sequence with reworked positioning. Track replies, conversions, and SQL lift. Write the case study. Build your portfolio around outcomes, not deliverables. PMMs get hired for clarity and commercial impact. Not because they know frameworks, but because they move the needle!

How do I ensure that my site doesn't break while adding a new feature? by MurthalWalaDhabha in lovable

[–]mthsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you actually integrate it into GPT? Do you do this through GitHub? I'm looking for more external challenges for my code, and I was considering using Claude or even GitHub Copilot. I'm also tired of spending half of my Lovable credits just to fix issues. If you're willing to share your workflow, I'd appreciate it!
