Returning guest Rich Mironov is a B2B product management legend, long-time blogger and author of "The Art of Product Management". He's recently moved to Portugal to sample the best of European product culture, and is currently actively coaching and mentoring product leaders. His goal is to help them understand what business leaders really care about and ensure that they make an impact by speaking the same language as the rest of the executive suite. Episode highlights: 1. No one in the leadership team cares about how products are made; they care about making money We product people can often be so in love with our craft and our terminology that we forget that no one else wants to hear it. We need to craft a narrative that moves beyond esoteric, fuzzy concepts about delight and happiness. These are important, but not as important to the leadership team as how those things make money for the company. We need to get off our high horses and meet our stakeholders where they are, just like we would with our users. 2. Product Managers need to know how their product and their company make money Too many product managers are not aware of how their company makes money, how things are priced and packaged, and the effect that this will have on the types of decisions they can make. We need to up our game when it comes to financial literacy and understand the growth levers that we can pull if we want to have an impact at the top level. 3. It's important to build internal coalitions to get support early, rather than being the one person who dissents It's always hard when there's a seemingly blockbuster deal on the table that has big revenue numbers attached, but is going to derail the roadmap for months. It's important to understand the positions of other non-product stakeholders and get their buy-in so that you're not the only person against the deal. Make sure you build bridges with your colleagues and go in with a united front. 4. Learn to tell "Money Stories" to get alignment around your roadmap and calculate the true cost of trade-offs There are four different types of money stories: Cost savings, Upselling, New Market and Customer Satisfaction. These all use simple heuristics to sense-check the revenue impact of any initiative. Product people can get obsessed with accuracy, but your colleagues are guesstimating all their numbers, so get comfortable with directionally correct numbers. You can still make prioritisation debates clearer by "counting the digits" or comparing orders of magnitude. 5. Organisational context is everything, so you need to understand it There are big differences between how Private Equity-funded and Venture Capital-funded startups work. They have different timeframes, different goals and, ultimately, a different mindset. There's no right or wrong here, simply an acknowledgement that your company's investment context will dramatically impact the types of decisions the leadership team will make. If you know this context, it can help you make better decisions (as well as decide whether it's the type of company you want to work for) Check out Rich's essay "Business Cases are Stories about Money" Rich's original essay, which has led to conference talks as well as this interview, can be found here: https://www.mironov.com/moneystories/ Buy "The Art of Product Management (2nd edition)" "The Art of Product Management takes us inside the head of a product management thought leader.

His focus includes: Coaching VPs of Product and CPOs, Organizing the product organization, and Stepping in (occasionally) as a 'smokejumper' VP of Product Management. In this episode, Rich shares that product managers must define economic value before development. He believes sales teams should communicate, not calculate, value using simple tools. And he advises focusing on broad market data instead of over-relying on top accounts. Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn how to define and communicate economic value effectively. Understand how sales teams and product managers can align for better pricing decisions. Gain actionable tips on framing value in sales conversations without overwhelming buyers. “You want to look for an aggregate set of data about what's happening in your marketplace as opposed to attaching a lot of overweight to your two largest accounts.” - Rich Mironov Topics Covered: 01:22 - Describing his journey into product management and an overview of his role here 03:40 - Differentiating B2C pricing versus B2B pricing as it relates to product management 09:33 - Discussing the balance between standardized pricing for most customers and the reality of frequent one-off deals in B2B 11:28 - How to systematize B2B pricing to reduce one-off deals and encourage standardization 16:59 - Aligning sales compensation with margin to protect long-term profitability 18:39 - Highlighting how enterprise sales teams generalize individual client demands as market-wide needs 20:26 - Why product teams must define economic value before development 25:00 - Agreeing that product teams must define value early but debates how to present it, with Mark favoring customer-driven insights and Rich emphasizing the need for quantifiable justification to close deals 26:25 - Acknowledging that while ROI calculators aren't inherently trusted, they're valuable as a conversational tool 28:37 - Rich's best pricing advice Key Takeaways: "I believe a fundamental obligation of product management if we're building something that needs this kind of discussion [communicate economic value], is to do the economic math before we start the development. Not after." - Rich Mironov "Expecting my sales team to be economists is unrealistic. And so, on the product side, I feel like I owe my sales team some narrative that they can read off the page, yes, fill in the numbers, fill in the values, or fill in the quantities. But the value story has to be baked into the product." - Rich Mironov "We lead with benefits, we lead with stories, we lead with vignettes, we lead with problems. But the last two paragraphs of that have to justify somebody actually signing a contract." - Rich Mironov People/Resources Mentioned: JPMorganChase: https://www.jpmorganchase.com New York Stock Exchange: https://www.nyse.com/index Connect with Rich Mironov: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richmironov/ Website: mironov.com Email: rich@mironov.com Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

This episode is brought to you by Oberle Risk Strategies: Insurance Broker and Insurance Due Diligence Provider for Search Funds and Other Small-to-Medium-Sized Businesses * This episode is brought to you by The Profit Line: The Outsourced Finance & Accounting Department for Small and Medium Sized Businesses * Based on my own experience as a software CEO, I think that Product Management is one of the most important - and one of the lest well understood - ingredients to building a successful software company. Many software businesses (particularly mature ones still led by their original Founders) don't have any product management function at all. While this may be tenable under the Founder's leadership, it is almost never tenable when the company is acquired and led by a CEO with minimal industry experience. It is also my experience that many problems that seem to be attributable to the engineering group (technical debt, high levels of customization, regularly missing deadlines, etc.) are actually product management problems masquerading as development problems. This episode, originally published in 2021, is as applicable today as it was then. My guest today is Rich Mironov, who is North America's preeminent Product Management thought leader. He has spent 40 years in the software industry in numerous capacities, and currently acts as a Coach, Consultant, and Interim Executive for CEOs and Heads of Product across Canada and the United States, advising them on a diverse range of issues spanning product, marketing, engineering, and sales. Rich has led Product Management at six software companies, and has now consulted for more than 170 technology businesses of all sizes. He is the author of "Product Bytes", a hugely popular and long-running blog on software, start-ups, product strategies, Silicon Valley, and the inner life of product managers. Our conversation covers hiring a Product leader and Product team, how to think about prioritizing products/features/functions, how Product should interface with Sales and other internal departments, how involved CEOs should be in Product, and what fatal mistakes he's seen Product Managers make.
What's the best way to align product strategy with business goals? How can product managers communicate product value to the go-to-market side of the house? Rich Mironov, a 40-year veteran of product management and author of The Art of Product Management 2d, joins Product Momentum to address these and other vexing challenges in the world … The post 140 / Money Talks: Aligning Product Strategy + Business Goals, with Rich Mironov appeared first on ITX Corp..
Rich Mironov is a tech start-up veteran, writer, and coach for product leaders with four decades of experience in Silicon Valley's product management landscape. With his expertise, he's led six start-ups to success. Rich occasionally acts as the interim VP of Products or CPO for software companies, lending his expertise to drive their success. With a passion for sharing knowledge, Rich has been an avid blogger on software product management since 2002. His influential insights and expertise have been compiled in his book, The Art of Product Management. He continues to shape the industry with his wealth of experience and dedication to empowering product teams. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Physics from Yale University, where his thesis focused on dinosaur extinction theories. He also holds an MBA from Stanford University. Today, Rich and I discuss how product management influences innovation. Rich elaborates on the role of product managers in innovating at the feature and sub-feature levels. He explains why he is wary of the word “innovation” and what he believes it should mean. He tells us how product managers can turn innovation into an intentional process that produces an impactful result. He shares how product managers can sell their ideas to get the resources they need and make a logical financial argument to show how proposed ideas will benefit the company financially. Rich also highlights the importance of accountability for product managers in driving forward progress with the product. “We're an important driver of the system, but let's not get our heads too big that we can't walk through the doors of our building like everybody else.” -Rich Mironov This week on Innovation Talks: ● How product managers can influence executives ● Common product management challenges and opportunities ● How product innovation and leadership are connected ● The benefits of pruning product backlogs ● How to attach money to roadmap items ● How to speak an executive's language ● The role of product managers in product waste ● Discovery challenges for product managers ● The origins of Rich's Product Camp Connect with Rich Mironov: ● Rich Mironov's Website (https://www.mironov.com/) ● Book: The Art of Product Management: Lessons from a Silicon Valley Innovator by Rich Mironov (https://www.amazon.com/Art-Product-Management-Lessons-Innovator-ebook/dp/B00347AIDA?ref_=ast_author_mpb) ● Rich Mironov on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/richmironov) ● Rich Mironov on Twitter (https://twitter.com/RichMironov) ● Rich Mironov on Medium (https://richmironov.medium.com/) This Podcast is brought to you by Sopheon Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Innovation Talks.

The podcast episode discusses Andrew Wilkinson's entrepreneurial journey, particularly focusing on his founding of the company Flow, a task tracking and productivity app for teams and small businesses. The conversation delves into the challenges faced by Flow as a bootstrapped business in a competitive market dominated by venture-backed giants like Asana. Despite their focus on product design and passionate user base, Flow struggled to compete against well-funded competitors like Asana, which had substantial marketing budgets and rapidly expanded feature sets. The episode highlights the difficulties of sustaining a bootstrapped startup in an industry where raising capital is often seen as essential for success. It explores Flow's decision to turn down an acquisition offer from Asana and the subsequent challenges they encountered while trying to grow organically. Despite their dedication to the product and loyal customer base, Flow faced obstacles such as limited resources and underestimated competition. The podcast also discusses the transition in leadership at Flow, with Daniel Scrivner taking over as CEO after a period of downsizing. The challenges of overhauling the app and maintaining momentum with a reduced team are explored, culminating in the release of Flow X, a major update aimed at streamlining team collaboration. Ultimately, we'll conclude with an update on Flow's status, noting Daniel Scrivner's departure from the company in 2022 and the lack of information about its current leadership. The podcast reflects on Flow's journey as a potential "cigar butt" for Tiny Capital, where minimal investments are made in the asset until its eventual decline. Despite the uncertainties surrounding Flow's future, the episode provides insights into the trials and tribulations of building and sustaining a bootstrapped startup in a competitive market.

Join us on this thought-provoking podcast episode as we delve into the fascinating world of artificial intelligence (AI) and explore the burning question: Does AI have a PR problem? In today's fast-paced technological landscape, AI finds itself at the center of a colossal public relations conundrum. The allure and apprehension surrounding this transformative technology lead to a seemingly uncontrollable narrative, with people projecting their hopes and fears onto AI, triggering discussions on the future of jobs, the essence of humanity, and the extent of AI's capabilities. Our discussion unravels the complexity of AI's PR challenges, highlighting the immense scale and impact of AI beyond the influence of any single company. As we examine the parallels between openAI, generative AI, and other tech companies, we discover how media interest often swings to extremes, leading to a cyclical pattern where a trough of skepticism follows the peak of hype. Brace yourself for the moment when journalists start questioning, "Is AI over?"—a phenomenon reminiscent of previous tech revolutions such as crypto, driverless cars, and even the early days of the Internet. Tune in as we explore the multifaceted dimensions of AI's public perception, examining the unknowns, uncertainties, and the quest for balance between optimism and caution. Join industry experts, AI enthusiasts, and thought leaders as we navigate the intersection of technology, human perception, and the evolving narrative of artificial intelligence.

In the wake of rapid AI advancements, concerns over the regulation and ethical use of AI have become increasingly urgent. With the EU AI Act recently proposed, there is hope that common-sense regulation can address some of these concerns. The Act includes a list of prohibited AI practices and requirements for high-risk AI systems, but there is still debate over whether it goes far enough. As we grapple with the question of how to regulate AI in a way that promotes innovation while also ensuring ethical use, the urgency of the matter is clear: we may be gambling with our future if we don't act now.

Michael Sacca, Former Chief Product Officer at Dribbble, gives a talk about his loss of joy in building products in the last few years. Misaligned KPIs and over-processed processes have led to a burnout of creativity across the product landscape. The increasing trend of financial engineering in products has resulted in imbalanced priorities, causing pressure on product leaders to maintain balance. As processes become too rigid, it becomes harder to be a human day in and day out. Passion doesn't come from an agenda or a methodology; it comes from people. When care for our craft and trust breaks down, and we forget we're human, the process stifles progress. Sacca talks about how the pandemic and the pressure it brought led to rigidity, which took the joy out of work. But, his team realized an opportunity to teach design to students and started a small team that solved problems in real-time without strict processes. The result was a successful product that brought back the joy of working. Gigantic - The professional training institute of the future.
