What I help with

Product marketing

Help with positioning, pricing and proof that sells

If people don't get what you do, you're not sure what to charge, or sales keep asking for proof, that's product marketing. You don't need to hire a product marketer to fix it. You need the problem gone.

Sound familiar?

  • "Why don't people understand what my business does?"
  • "How do I find my ideal customer profile (ICP)?"
  • "How should I price my services or product?"
  • "How are we different from our competitors?"
  • "How do I get customers to agree to a case study?"

What it is, in plain English

Product marketing is the bridge between what you've built and the people who should buy it. It covers who it's for (your ideal customer), how you describe it (positioning and messaging), what you charge, who you're up against, how you launch, and the proof that helps people say yes.

Bigger jobs, scoped together

These depend too much on your data and your customers to price up front. We agree a written scope and price before anything starts.

  • “Competitors keep coming up and we're not sure how we're different”

    Know Your Rivals

    A proper look at who you're up against, what they promise and the gap only you can fill. We agree the competitors and the depth first.

    Done this before: Part of every role I've had. It shaped the pricing and messaging that made new AI products stand out, instead of getting lost in a sea of the same.

    Smaller first step: Price Check

  • “Our launch went quiet”

    The Launch Do-Over

    Hands-on relaunch help for founder-led businesses. We agree the audience, the evidence and what gets made before I quote.

    Done this before: Led a Toluna launch that made over $1M in its first month, against a $750K target.

    Smaller first step: Power Hours

  • “Our prices and packages have got messy”

    Price It Properly

    A bigger pricing project: customer conversations about value, new packages, and how to test them. Scoped to what you need.

    Smaller first step: Price Check

Questions people ask

What does a product marketer actually do?
They work out who your product or service is for, what to say so those people care, how you're different, what to charge, and how to launch so it lands. Then they give sales the stories to close deals.
Do I need a product marketer or a copywriter?
The line is blurrier than people think. Plenty of good copywriters work from an ideal customer profile. The real question is whether you already know who you're for, what you offer them and why they'd choose you. If you do, you need the words. If you don't, sort that out first, because no amount of polish fixes the wrong message. I can do both: get clear on who it's for, then write the words that land with them.
How do I find my ideal customer profile?
Look at the customers who got value fastest, stayed longest and were easiest to win. Then talk to them. Who's It For? (£950) does this with two of your customers. No customers yet? Start with a Power Hour.
Can you help with competitor analysis?
Yes. The Price Check (£450) compares your prices with three competitors. For a fuller look at competitors' positioning, we agree the competitors and the depth first, then I quote.
How long does it take to write a case study?
Usually 3 to 4 weeks, most of it waiting for approvals. The Proof Machine produces three, plus a template so your team can keep going.
