Adopt Social media

Adopt Social media, don't buy but earn attention.

Why do you still invest money in marketing areas where you are sure to get nothing in return?
Fear of change?

While I agree with the presentation "Social media marketing explained in 61 words" by David Meerman Scott, I still do not get how I could apply these concepts to niche markets, like the one I currently work in.
Enjoy the show where you'll be explained what is introduced on David Meerman Scott's own blog:
"
You can buy attention (advertising)
You can beg for attention from the media (PR)
You can bug people one at a time to get attention (sales)
Or you can earn attention by creating something interesting and valuable and then publishing it online for free: a YouTube video, a blog, a research report, photos, a Twitter stream, an ebook, a Facebook page.
"

David builds his argurment with real examples (links in sources) he has met these last years and jokes about the Gobbledygook you can find on marketing product web page.

Lancement de ProductTank Lyon

Tout d’abord, bonne année 2020. Je me suis investi ces dernières années dans les communautés/événements CARA Lyon, MiXiTConf, LyonDataScience et CaféDevOps sur Lyon, France. Ces activités m’ont permis de comprendre les experts de ces domaines, d’apprendre quelques notions fondamentales à travers leurs exposés et d'améliorer mes capacités d’échange avec eux. Product Manager depuis plus de 5 ans, je désire améliorer mes réflexes et compétences dans mon domaine.

Le réseau ProductTank compte plus de 150 meetup dans le monde et profite des conférences, blog et podcast MindTheProduct. Inscrivez-vous ici , si vous voulez vous joindre à nous.

Learning about Data Science?

This is the end of a beautiful summer, and also one of the warmer recorded in France. I’m continuing my journey in the product management world and today I’m living in the product marketing one too. I will blog about this later. During this first half of this year, I read several articles on big data and started to understand how important the data science discipline is. Being able to define a direction/goal to search, collecting the proper data, then using a collection of techniques to extract something others can’t see - it sounds like magic. Also, when I listened to the Udacity Linear Disgression podcast episode “Hunting the Higgs”, I understood people with these skills can be better at solving a problem than the domain experts themselves. Katie Malone explained that in a competition to solve a particle physics problem, the best results came from machine learning people.
