On Today’s Show:
Early-stage companies face numerous challenges, including a need for more resources and tools and uncertainty about the viability of their solution. Even worse, you may be building a product that customers don’t want.
In this episode, Jamie Bell, VP of Marketing at Workshop, shares the company's journey to find product-market fit and their focus on early growth. Once essentially a company intranet builder, Workshop now focuses on being more than just an internal email solution.
They position themselves as a broad internal marketing solution, actively listening to customer feedback and investing in their product roadmap to provide a comprehensive solution for internal communicators. This feedback loop has been critical to evolving their product.
Main Takeaways
- Workshop pivoted from building an intranet to focusing on internal email communications, which proved to be a more practical solution for their customers.
- The Happy Monday Club newsletter has been a successful content strategy, providing practical resources and positive narratives for internal communicators.
- Workshop's marketing strategy includes using free email templates, Google Ads, and targeted campaigns to reach their audience.
- Jamie suggests that attribution software alone is not sufficient. She recommends measuring marketing effectiveness through a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods.
