Product Line Strategy and Profitability Arkaro Independent consultants

Product Line Strategy and Profitability

Arkaro’s experience in B2B Product Management helps you optimise the tension between what customers want, and are willing to pay for,  and what you can make and sell profitably. 

Strategy skills are essential to manage the associated trade-offs.

To understand what customers want, product managers need skills in Commercial Excellence and the Innovation Process are critical.

Likewise to maximise what can be made profitably B2B product line managers typically require expertise in commercial asset productivity, as well as cross-functional collaboration with operations and supply chain.

And finally, once the strategy to drive change is developed, product managers need to excel in Business Transformation 

Given such a broad skillset it is hardly surprising that many product managers do not feel fully equipped. Arkaro’s experienced independent consultants can train, coach and advise your organisation for success in the critical B2B function of product management.
