Go-to-Market Strategy

Optimize Your
Go-To-Market Approach

A Go-to-Market (GTM) strategy serves to make sure you will bring your products and/or services to market in the best possible way.

It starts with which customer groups you will serve, what products or services you will offer them, and why they should care about your brand or offers.

Your selected target markets, distribution channels, omnichannel experience and marketing and sales strategy complete your Go-to-Market strategy.

What is a Go-to-Market (GTM) Strategy?

Your Go-to-Market, or GTM, strategy outlines in detail what products and services you offer and how you will bring these to market.

Your GTM plan includes the Who (your target audience or customer segments), the What (your products and/or services), the Why (your brand proposition), the Where (your target markets), the How (your sales and marketing strategy) and finally When (timeline and key milestones).

Everything starts with the Who of Go-to-Market: who is your audience? And what are their needs, characteristics and beliefs that you are looking to address?

What products or services will you offer to your target audience?  How are these different from the competition? And why does it matter?

Why would your target customers care about your products or services? What branding will you apply to make sure that they do?

Your brand positioning and overall value proposition is an essential part of your go-to-market strategy to make sure this is clear.

The fourth component of an integrated Go-to-Market strategy is the decision of where to market your products and services.

The selection of your target markets is crucial: in which geographies, industries and sectors will you compete?

Your Marketing Strategy is your overall game plan that specifies how you will connect your products or services with their intended target audiences.

Your Sales Plan then outlines the distribution channels you will use, the sales methods your will apply and your overall commercial strategy.

The timing of your go-to-market activities is key. Get it right, and you might outpace the competition and gain a first-mover advantage. Get it wrong, and you might be too late. Or too early…

Your GTM plan will therefore include a timeline with key milestones and dependencies.
