Job Description
We are looking for a product marketing manager (PMM) who sits between product, sales, and customers. They own how a product is positioned, priced, and brought to market — the “why buy this” story, not the “how it’s built” engineering.
Core responsibilities:
• Market research — sizing demand, understanding competitors, segmenting customers
• Positioning & messaging — what makes the product worth buying, in plain language
• Pricing strategy — working with finance/product to land on the right model
• Go-to-market planning — launch timing, channels, sales enablement
• Sales & customer support enablement — training reps, building collateral
• Post-launch tracking — adoption, feedback, iteration
For a utility launching a surge protection product, a PMM would typically:
1. Research the opportunity — survey customers on pain points (appliance damage, past claims), study competitors (home warranty companies, insurers, other utilities already offering this)
2. Define the offer — work with product/legal on whether it’s whole-home surge protection, a device add-on, or a service plan; help decide pricing tiers
3. Craft positioning — translate “protects your home from voltage spikes” into messaging that resonates (e.g., peace of mind, avoiding costly appliance replacement)
4. Build the launch plan — decide whether it rolls out via bill inserts, call center scripts, the utility’s app, or door-to-door — and set launch KPIs (signup rate, revenue targets)
5. Enable customer-facing teams — train call center and billing staff on how to explain and sell it, create FAQs for common objections (“Is this the same as my insurance?”)
6. Measure and iterate — track uptake, churn, and complaints post-launch, then refine pricing or messaging
Since utilities have a captive, trusted customer base but often low marketing sophistication, the PMM’s biggest value-add is usually translating a fairly technical/insurance-like product into something a bill-paying customer immediately understands and trusts.
