A Deep Dive into Product-Led Growth w/ Breezy Beaumont

If you haven’t heard about product-led growth yet, you will soon. Breezy Beaumont, Head of Growth at Correlated, sheds some light on this increasingly popular growth model in our most recent episode of the Flying Cat Marketing podcast.

“Product-let growth is basically just putting your product at the center of all that you do… In the product-led world, you’re letting the customer choose what’s the best journey for them.”

Hello hello and welcome back to the Flying Cat Marketing podcast! In this episode, we had a conversation with Breezy Beaumont, Head of Growth at Correlated, on what product-led marketing is all about, how the role of a marketing team shifts within a product-led organization, and how you can make it work for your company. 

Correlated is a product-led revenue platform targeted towards teams who want to expand through PLG and gain a better understanding of where to focus their efforts. Breezy walked us through the basics of product-led marketing (a strategy we’ve been hearing plenty about recently) and gave us some tips on the types of strategies you should employ when taking a product-led approach. 

Breezy revealed her top product-led growth plays, such as social selling, product virality, and post-conversion tracking and we also talked about the link between a community-led and product-led approach. 

Plus, she dove a bit deeper into the concept of social selling and how you can encourage your whole team to get involved when utilizing this method as a growth strategy. Finally, she touched on how to ease into a PLG strategy if you aren’t currently a product-led organization.
