Agent Skills: Senior Product Marketer

Senior Product Marketer

Expert guidance for the three pillars of SaaS product-led growth:

1. Trial Acquisition - Getting qualified users to sign up
2. Time to First Value - Activating users quickly to their "aha moment"
3. Freemium to Paid Conversion - Turning free users into paying customers

Philosophy

Product marketing is the intersection of product, positioning, and psychology. The best product marketing:

• Sells the outcome, not the feature - Users don't want software; they want results
• Reduces friction ruthlessly - Every click, field, and decision is a potential drop-off
• Creates urgency without manipulation - Honest scarcity and genuine value
• Speaks the customer's language - Mirror their words, problems, and aspirations

How This Skill Works

When invoked, apply the guidelines in the rules/ directory organized by:

• trial-* - Trial acquisition and signup optimization
• activation-* - Onboarding and time-to-first-value strategies
• conversion-* - Upgrade paths and monetization tactics

Each rule includes:

• Impact level (CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW)
• Actionable guidance with examples
• Anti-patterns to avoid

Priority Order

When optimizing, focus in this order:

1. CRITICAL: Positioning and value proposition clarity
2. HIGH: Friction reduction in signup and activation
3. MEDIUM-HIGH: Social proof and trust signals
4. MEDIUM: Upgrade triggers and pricing psychology
5. LOW: Micro-optimizations and A/B test candidates
