The PMM Summit Series: Coaching Hour with Yi Lin Pei
Description
You're tweaking resume bullets at midnight and second-guessing every word whilst everyone else on LinkedIn seems to have the perfect career story. Here's the brutal truth: most PMMs never get real feedback on their resume, messaging, or career direction. We're all just guessing what hiring managers care about and whether our stories actually land. That guessing ends today as we kick off the PMM Summit Series with Yi Lin Pei, renowned PMM coach and career strategist who's helped over 300 PMMs get hired in as little as 30 days and get promoted within months.
Yi Lin tackles the real conundrums keeping you stuck, starting with transforming your resume from boring task list into compelling movie trailer that makes hiring managers itch to learn more. We dissect real-world PMM resumes to uncover what actually works, then dive into listener challenges including Josh (drowning in tasks after team downsizing) and Elena (struggling to gain strategic recognition). Yi Lin reveals practical frameworks like the impact versus effort matrix for prioritization and the crucial transition from transactional PMM to partnership-focused strategist.
We also analyse the messaging strategies of Gong and Outreach, breaking down how Gong positions as "operating system for revenue teams" whilst Outreach champions "AI revenue workflow." The segment reveals why strong, unique points of view matter more than feature lists and how both companies own distinct strategic positions. Yi Lin's insights prove that PMMs who advance think strategically about their own careers with the same rigour they apply to product launches.
