EXPERT GTM COURSE

Go-To-Market Strategy

Build a Structured GTM Plan That Connects Product, Channels, and Revenue

Most companies don’t fail because their product is bad. They fail because they don’t know how to bring it to market strategically.

According to CB Insights, one of the top reasons startups fail is “no market need”. That is not a product problem, it is a positioning and GTM problem.

Why Go-To-Market Strategy Is the Real Growth Lever

Harvard Business Review has repeatedly emphasized that even strong innovations fail when companies underestimate commercialization and market-entry strategy .

McKinsey highlights that companies with strong commercial alignment between marketing and sales significantly outperform peers in revenue growth.

In other words:
  • Execution without strategy is noise.
  • Activity without structure is expensive.
  • Launching without a Go-To-Market plan is gambling.

The Go-to-Market Strategy course provides a structured framework to:
  • define your ideal customers,
  • align messaging,
  • select the right channels,
  • build a pipeline,
  • and measure performance with the right KPIs.

This is the commercialization architecture course you need to succeed.

Who is this course for?

Although primarily designed for language experts such as translators and reviewers, this course also offers tremendous value to marketing professionals, (localization) project managers, writers of to-be translated content, and anyone curious about:

  • •    what transcreation is all about;
    •    its common applications;
    •    how it sets itself apart from traditional translation;
    •    ways it handles limitations like space, timing, or rhyme;
    •    and the skills necessary to excel in transcreation.

Delivered in English, this course offers skills and knowledge that can be applied to translation and transcreation work in any language pairing.

A working proficiency in at least one additional language beyond English is essential for the exercises, as you’ll need to use this language as a target.

The exercises use English as the source language. So, if English is usually your target language, you’ll need to be comfortable swapping your language pair to complete the transcreation tasks.
