Hello product makers!
I have attempted to visualize what the profession of Product Management could look like as some sort of a blueprint.
So I've put together The Product Management Blueprint - an interactive tool that gives you a bird's-eye view into everything that a Product Manager should know and do.
It's as relevant to professional product makers as it is for indie hackers.
It can be used as a high-level reminder for Product Managers to cover all aspects of product development, as well as a deep-dive library of articles, books, examples, templates and tools that can help Junior as well as Senior Product Managers to sharpen their skills.
Have a look here, feedback is always welcome - https://pmblueprint.info
This is super useful because product management can feel very fragmented when you’re learning it.
Most founders and indie hackers usually focus only on shipping features, but product thinking is so much broader than that. Positioning, validation, prioritization, user psychology, roadmap clarity… all of it compounds.
Love the idea of turning it into a visual blueprint instead of another long theory-heavy guide.
Honestly, more builders need resources like this early before they spend months building in the wrong direction. That’s also something foundersbar.com is trying to help founders with from the start.
Hey Mark this is great stuff, I have just started my role as Technical Product Manager with great ambitions to transition into starting my own business using such blue prints to create great products...thanks for sharing.
As a Product Manager, I can say I really like the on pager that you've built on this. Your technical skills are really shining too.
Great work
Thank you sir :)
Thanks for sharing, Mark. I really like the blueprint concept and the interactive site is very cool.
I've been thinking similar thoughts about a repeatable framework for no-code product development in a thread I created.
As I mentioned in the replies section, the How portion of your blueprint is very similar to the way I've been thinking about a repeatable process. Very important to remember the Why and the What, too.
Thank you @billb
Not sure why this is underrated, but you built a great resource!
Thank you Mark
Thank you kindly. :)
