What does a Product Manager *actually* do? 3 ways I spend my time at work

Hello all! After a staggering number of requests, I have FINALLY made the diagram in the video available for you to download. You can grab it here: theproductpup.gumroad.com/l/productmanagertasks Please leave a Gumroad rating if you can spare a minute :) Enjoy!

This is so much better than those who do "I wake up and get my coffee from Starbucks". This is legit a great insight.

What an incredible and structured overview of what PMs actually do on their day to day! As someone who is potentially considering to transition into PM I highly appreciate you taking the time to put this together! Thank you! 👑

30 minutes of valuable content with no wasted time. Super informative thank you!

So far the best explation of Product Management role on youtube, I was trying to make a decision on if i should switch to product management role or not. Trust me this video helped me alot.

This is the first time I have taken notes from a video, I loved every aspect of this video, but this is not for everyone, I had to see it maybe three times to make sure I had captured everything. I am really surprised to see that I am heavily involved in meetings, I had to branch my meetings and have no time to focus on the other areas. really loved it. well done Anika.

OMG!! i can't really over-stress how important and impactful your videos are to us out here. you are indeed a heavenly sent. Please just keep'em coming..

The first minute of your video felt like you were reading my thoughts aloud!! SO HELPFUL!!!

Very concise and genuine. I am product manager and have gone through almost all of these apects but I'm kinda struggling when someone asking me what PM does, forget stuffs here and there, and end up give generic answers :) This video just maps out and organize everything so well and very close to actual works of PM.

pausing this video 30% in to tell you how incredible this is, especially in comparison where it feels like people are actually telling me NOTHING about the day to day. thank you, I really get it now and it makes me pretty excited for my upcoming interview

This is the most detailed youtube video I’ve ever seen about the role of a product manager. Please please please make more videos at this level. And I don’t even understand how you create the youtube videos while doing that much

I really appreciate the details you share with us and the way you structure your videos! It’s extremely helpful (and interesting of course).

Absolutely power packed session..Got to know so many things in detail. Started taking notes and ended up writing every thing 😅

Being a product manager myself for so many years I found it very helpful. Thank you!

I am aspiring Product manager and find this video very insightful. Great work Anika!

Found this video after 2years and it solved my beginner’s curiosity issues! Thanks Anika 🤗

Clear, practical, and easy-to-understand framework - (Strategic, Tactical, Meetings). Detailed delivery and very insightful. Thank you so much!

Well very articulated bigger picture of Product management… thanks so much Anika!

i'm starting my career as a pm and this is so so so helpful! I got a lot of hands on experience on the "tactical" side of pm and have been able to do a great job. But I didn't get any mentorship or training on the strategy/roadmap and i was even straight up told that i'm not good at strategy which now I get it. I really should've ventured out on my own and learn from other pm experience and content rather than accepting what others claimed about me. Anyways, super super helpful and thanks for spending time on making this video!

Hey Hi Amika, Wow, such a wonderful compilation. Great explanation of flow of things and tasks done by product manager. Very helpful and beneficial. Appreciate taking out time and posting this here.
