Do you believe that your product startup spends a lot of time and energy in R&D of your product, but very little time on marketing and selling it? If yes, then this session is definitely for you.
We are putting together a mentoring session with experts who have "been there, done that" to come and talk to product startups about marketing strategies in the Indian scenario - either B2B or B2C or otherwise. Questions such as:
- What are the best ways to market your product, theoretically as well as practically
- How do I create brand value for my b2b or b2c product?
- Should I hire a marketing person in my startup?
- What are the challenges faced in selling retail commercial software?
- Which marketing methods work best? (Mass mailing, newspapers, hoardings, etc)
- What are effective ways to stand out from bigger and tougher competition while marketing your product?
and more, will be discussed.
Speakers: We have Kailash Katkar and Sanjay Katkar from QuickHeal Technologies, who will be answering all our questions.
