Short answer

Product marketing is the function that brings products to market through positioning, messaging, and sales enablement. Product marketers research customers and competitors, define how a product is described, plan launches, and equip sales teams with materials. The role connects product, marketing, and sales so the product reaches and convinces the right buyers.
