June 13, 2019 12. 3 Huge Lessons Pro Sports Taught Me About Product Marketing
This is a blog post about what ice skates, hockey sticks and pucks have to do with marketing a new product. Because believe it or not, there’s a lot in common between whatever you do, and ice skates, hockey sticks, and pucks. Andreas Schwabe is Graphos' Director of Media Services. Before that he was the first webmaster of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers, and among the first pro sports webmasters. Is there demand for your product? What’s the ideal selling price and how will it affect the market segment? What is the brand promise? What’s the product’ unique selling proposition (USP) or differentiation in the market? After highlighting just a few of the moving parts, I might need to re-visit this topic again sometime. Professional sport does everything big. Success is big, failure is big. If you learn the lessons of pro sports, your business can thrive in the big leagues.

June 13, 2019 Crossing the Chasm: Launching an Innovative Product for Mass Adoption
Bryn, Laurier, and Andreas discuss ideas from the classic book, “Crossing The Chasm: Marketing and Selling Disruptive Products to Mainstream Customers” by Geoffrey A. Moore.
Until Moore’s book codified and revolutionized how marketers think and talk about product marketing, a “customer” was perceived as anyone who might potentially buy a product. But there are vastly different optimum buyer types at different times in a product marketing life cycle, and understanding them is pivotal to developing a successful launch strategy.
“The Chasm” is the yawning product marketing gap between Early Adopters and the Early Majority, whose buying choices are guided by entirely separate references. That means brands must think about their segmentation strategy as a phased approach to building momentum. How do you target the right early adopters to secure beachheads to the much larger Early Majority? That’s what we explore.
