Course Description

In Sustaining a Product Strategy, we will show you how product strategy and marketing analysis can be used to ensure longevity and productivity. We will help you prepare to implement a product strategy by answering some clarifying questions so you can take your product from the initial concept to final customer satisfaction through product design, development, and revision.
