The goal: Setting the course for product success and implementing the strategy
The product launch initiates the ‘downstream product management’, i.e. the product marketing process: Now the time has come and the developed product is launched on the market. Even the best product will not achieve the success it deserves if the product launch is not properly prepared, implemented and followed up. Especially with complex products, large sales organisations, multi-level and possibly different sales channels, the development and implementation of an effective market launch strategy is a critical success factor for the product, but often also a real challenge for the product manager. A good product launch creates many advantages:
- Achievement of planned turnover, sales and earnings targets
- Efficient use of marketing costs
- Motivated sales team
- Clear offer strategy in sales
- Smooth transition to series production
The target group: For anyone who wants to professionalise their market launch skills
This training is suitable for anyone who wants to optimise and professionalise the market launch of products in the industrial and B2B environment. It addresses the following functions in equal measure:
- Product Manager
- Head of Product Management
- Product Marketing Manager
In in-house training, it can be very useful to invite representatives from the sales and marketing departments to the workshop. Thanks to the different departmental perspectives, interfaces and processes can be defined during the training and questions from all stakeholders can be taken into account.

Our online training courses: interactive and productive
Our online training courses follow the outcome-based training approach. The structure and process are based on specific types of results that are developed in the respective training course. Each participant works interactively on their own panorama whiteboard, which brings together all the content.
This creates a clear overview and enables valuable work results. The results are put into a presentable form during the training, which can later be used for communication with stakeholders in the company. This results in high practical relevance and transfer. The workshop offers a balanced mix of method input and direct application.
