From a product that exists to a product that sells. Segment, channel, proposition, distribution, sequence and timeline, in that order.

The problem it solves

A good product doesn't sell itself. It sells when it reaches the right decision-maker, through the right channel, with a proposition they grasp in seconds, at the moment they are able to buy. When one of those pieces fails, the launch ends up as an announcement and a handful of sales to friends.

The go-to-market puts those pieces in order before money is spent on execution: which segment to enter first, which channel reaches it, what to offer it, how the product gets there and in what sequence everything is activated.

Who it's for

For companies about to launch a product, a line or a service, or that have already launched and it isn't taking off. For companies that want to enter a new market, particularly between the Dominican Republic and Spain, where the decision-makers, channels and allies are different.

And for agencies whose client asks for a complete launch plan, beyond the campaign.

When to bring it in

  • Before a launch, while the plan can still change.
  • When a launch that has already happened isn't meeting expectations and needs to be reorganized.
  • Before opening a new market or a new channel, such as distribution, partners or referrers.
  • When a launch has to be coordinated across several markets at once with limited resources.

How it fits the method

In Diagnostic and Strategy, we define the entry segment, the map of decision-makers and channels, the proposition and the baseline the launch will be measured against.

In Playbook, the go-to-market becomes an activation sequence with action sheets, timeline, resources, KPIs and governance per market. In Strategic direction, we direct whoever executes the launch and review it wave by wave: what worked, what didn't and what gets adjusted in the next one.

  1. Phase 1: Diagnostic and Strategy

    Understand the market and the problem before proposing anything. The baseline is set.

    Deliverable: Strategy document and presentation to leadership.

  2. Phase 2: Playbook

    The strategy becomes actions with an owner, cost, KPI and date.

    Deliverable: Playbook and kickoff.

  3. Phase 3: Strategic direction

    We direct third-party execution and review results against the baseline.

    Deliverable: Periodic report and committee.

Frequently asked questions

No. We design the plan, brief whoever runs the campaign and review the result. The campaign is produced by your agency or your team.

A coordinated launch in more than one market: the strategy is shared, but each market has its own adaptation, timeline, resources and KPIs, with governance that ties them together.

Yes. The Market Entry product works specifically on entry between the two markets where we operate: local decision-makers, channel, allies and entry sequence.

Even better. The go-to-market is designed in parallel with the product and sometimes changes product decisions, such as packaging or price. See also commercial architecture and pricing.
