PMM Files #110 – Positioning That Clicks, Comparisons You Can See, and How To Pitch Consolidation


Read Time: 3.2 minutes

Thanks for reading PMM Files. A newsletter where we share five cool product marketing examples we found last week.

Let's get to it...

The library of Examples, Templates, and Playbooks essential for Founding PMMs

  • "A straight-up goldmine for founding and solo PMMs"
  • "everything you need to kick ass as a product marketer."
  • "The playbooks, templates, and examples it offers are incredibly detailed, top-notch, and ready to use immediately."

​

Example #1 - Positioning That Clicks

Love this hero section from Bounti’s homepage. It clearly communicates what the product is, who it’s for, and why it’s different β€” all in a few lines.

The H1 and H2 leave no questions: This is a training and operations platform built for "deskless teams" πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³πŸ‘Œ

And the visuals help reinforce the message. Some show the product, some show users in action.

You quickly get why Bounti might be something users actually enjoy using.

Example #2 - Comparisons You Can See πŸ‘€

Most comparisons are built around giant feature tables. It’s a common way to evaluate products β€” but they often lack context and make real differences hard to see.

Bucket takes a smarter approach in its page against LaunchDarkly. It focuses on a few sharp, specific use cases, explains the differences clearly, and backs it up with solid visuals.

The page isn’t perfect, but the clarity created by the text and images stands out.

​

Example #3 - How to Pitch Consolidation

Here’s a great example of how to show the value of a single, consolidated solution vs. multiple tools.

If that’s your pitch, you need to show what buyers are leaving behind and how much simpler life gets post-consolidation.

Outseta’s old way / new way section does this extremely well.

What really stands out? Repeating the word β€œone” to drive the message home.

Example #4 - Showing How to Improve AI Performance

Not all product features are intuitive. Sometimes you need to walk users through the process of using it.

Ada’s β€œhow it works” section does a great job laying out the user journey for training its AI agent and what to expect when you dive in.

The flow is simple and linear. Each step is easy to follow. The copy and visuals explain what’s happening and why it matters.

If you’re looking to simplify a complex, multi-step product experience, this is a structure worth borrowing.

Example #5 - Removing AI Agent FUD

Salesforge tackles a growing source of FUD around AI agents: β€œWill this help me, or actually take my job.”

In the case of sales agents, that's becoming a big concern.

With a quick scroll, this section outlines exactly which low-value, time-consuming tasks Agent Frank takes off your reps' plate.
​
It doesn't take long to see that Agent Frank actually does your sales team a favor, not take their job.

What's left? The stuff humans do best: Building and closing pipeline.
