Thanks for reading PMM Files. A newsletter where we share five cool product marketing examples we found last week.
Let's get to it...
β
Example #1 - Reworkd Uses Experience as Proof
Why do buyers value social proof? It gives them peace of mind that buying your product wonβt be a decision they regret.
But what can you use when you donβt have a lot of testimonials or case studies?
Try showing proof that you have experience doing the job you say you do. Like Reworkd, who show that theyβve extracted more than 15 million lines of code.
ββ Check out Reworkd's social proof sectionβ
β
Example #2 - Robo Call Revenge
Hereβs a genius content play from Robokiller.
They know their audience hates scammers, so they created Robo Call Revenge, a series where they play real examples of their product inflicting pain on scammers.
Not only is it super satisfying content, it also demonstrates the value of their product.

Example #3 - Coming Soon to Dopt
Iβm seeing more established SaaS companies do this β setting up waitlist pages for new products or even features.
I love the idea of waitlists because they allow you to promote a product and capture demand - even convert it to beta users - before putting a big marketing effort behind your launch.
Also want to call out the use of the βeyebrowβ from Dopt as a clever way to promote the waitlist on their homepage.
ββ Check out Dopt's in-app messaging waitlist pageβ
β
Example #4 - A Clear "How it Works" Section
With interactive demos and product animations becoming the norm, itβs great to see that simple screenshots and callouts still work.
This simple section on Popupsmartβs homepage lets you choose from different use cases and highlights important capabilities on each page.
Simple, yet effective.

Example #5 - A Benefit You Can Believe
Iβm always looking for ways to improve my golf game. But Iβm skeptical when something promises to shave strokes off my round.
Thatβs why I love this piece of messaging for the Lag Shot 7-iron. Instead of some lofty further-order benefit, this swing-aid simply promises:
βYou'll turn that rare βonce a roundβ purely struck iron shot that feels like butter into something that happens all the time.β
Now thatβs something I can believe in.
