Course Overview

Most disappointing results in product life cycle marketing trace back to an audience defined too broadly. Buyers now complete much of their decision on cycle marketing before speaking to anyone. It concentrates on the parts of the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Practitioner evidence points the same way: product life cycle marketing improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. The programme works equally well for those formalising this area of marketing and commercial practice for the first time and those improving an existing approach. What blocks progress on cycle marketing is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. Participants finish able to explain product life cycle marketing to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. Participants test their assumptions about cycle marketing against scenarios designed to break weak ones. The final module sets out how progress on this strand of marketing and commercial practice will be evidenced six months later.
