Derek Osgood is the Founder and CEO of Ignition, the first dedicated go-to-market (GTM) platform built for product marketing and product teams. Their services centralize launch plans, assets, and executions that make launches easier to manage. Derek has over a decade of experience working with the industry's biggest names, including a role as Sony’s Product Manager for the PlayStation. He specializes in GTM, segmentation, user acquisition and engagement, and digital performance marketing. Derek joins me today to discuss what happens during a product launch and how Ignition makes it easier for launches to succeed. He shares his experience working with Sony’s PlayStation and describes some of the biggest challenges when launching a product. He explains why some launches fail and why that can dictate the long-term success of a product. Derek also details how the internet changed the way industries advertise and launch products.
"80% of CMOs say the launch window is make or break for the long-term success of the product." - Derek Osgood
