Grant Duncan, VP of Marketing at HST Pathways, shares his experience and tips for moving up the ranks to become a senior marketing leader in such a short timeframe.

I'm someone who is extremely passionate about business, technology, and helping things grow. It's to the point where I nerd out reading business books for fun, coding side projects in the evenings, running marketing for others, advising students on career and vocation topics, and thinking up new ways to grow existing businesses or create new businesses. I also love people and building relationships, personally and professionally.

In this episode of Product Marketing Life, Mark Assini, speaks with Jason Oakley, founder of Productive PMM, about what it means to be a founding product marketing manager (PMM).

I’m a product marketing coach, consultant, and creator with 10+ years experience building PMM functions from scratch.

I’ve built product marketing teams at three different companies (Klue, Chili Piper, and Uberflip) — each time starting as a founding PMM.

Now, I’m on a mission to help founding product marketers and early-stage PMM teams scale faster, focus on the right work, and drive real impact within their organization.

Also a proud father, Newfoundlander, Raptors fan, morning person, and lover of dad jokes. I once wrote a children’s book about a fox named Rocco.
