- More market orientation and lower flop rates
With effective and efficient product management, you automatically create a significantly higher market orientation. Understanding what the market and customers need and what they are prepared to spend money on is one of the core tasks of product management. This not only lays the foundation for greater success on the market, but also reduces flop rates. - More market success and return on investment
The benefit of effective product management ultimately manifests itself in greater market success, and in the long term over the entire product life cycle. This means that existing market potential is fully utilised and the return on investment is significantly increased. - More entrepreneurship and quieter nights
As ‘entrepreneurs for the products’, product managers are the ideal collaborators to fulfil the entrepreneurial role of board members, managing directors and BU heads. This significantly reduces the workload in day-to-day business and therefore gives top management more peace of mind. - Making corporate strategy tangible
Effective product management is directly integrated into the corporate strategy via product portfolio management. This strategic stringency not only creates clout in the market, but also makes the entire corporate strategy concrete and tangible for the entire company.
