What does PMM Career growth look like?
Hi all,
I am a former product manager with 2.5 YOE who is actively pursuing product marketing post layoff. I came from a liberal arts background and wanted to do PMM since postgrad however it was very difficult to find a PMM program so I transitioned into product instead thinking I would like it just as much. Thank you.
After my rotational experience, it was very clear that PMM better encompassed my interests and skillsets (Im very customer obsessed and love product storytelling).
However, I am worried about the PMM glass ceiling, salary trajectory, and also I have an innate desire to grow into a more strategic role where I can still be closer to the business and revenue impact (most likely post MBA).
Any advice from current product marketers on how to navigate transitioning into product marketing and building a fruitful, long term career? Would love to hear personal examples on how people navigated this.
