Breaking into Product Management is not easy.

I know; I've supported over 4,000+ professionals in the past 8 years to break into Product management.

I've worked with top institutions like General Assembly, Melbourne Business School, Harvard Innovation Labs and my school at Product Academy to help people make the career transition.

❤️ Preparing you for your Product Career Journey

Breaking into Product Management takes about 12 months, and you can't get 'certified' as a PM, unlike what most institutions sell.

Here's what actually happens based on what I've seen coaching hundreds of students:

- Most people take about 6 - 12 months to transition into the Product Manager role. Depending on their experience, skills and job market opportunities

- The first 6 months of the journey involve having the right knowledge before embarking on the competitive job market. Otherwise, you'll get rejected so many times you'll give up.

- The next 6 months of the journey focuses on building a network, marketing yourself, and seizing opportunities. The trick is to build a pipeline of opportunities and be ready when the experience/market fit role comes.

(Of course, if you have a background in Business, Design, or Engineering, this process can be quicker.)

💎 WHAT'S THE ROI?

Besides the joy of building products to help people solve problems and leaving a legacy in this world...

- Product Managers get paid $120K - $150K on average and can get up to $500K-$1M in more prominent companies.(https://www.levels.fyi/t/product-manager?countryId=254)

So this is why most people in Tech SCALE into a Product role; it's a great role with a high ceiling.

💡 WHO WILL YOU BE LEARNING FROM?

You'll be learning directly from me, Dave Wang (aka Product Dave) 👋 I've been doing Product for 17+ Years. Not just 'work-experience but 'product-experience'.

I started from the bottom up as a Junior PM and worked my way to Product Leadership roles at Linktree, Expedia, Vodafone, CommBank, and Airtasker.

I wanted to follow the same path as my students so I quit my $250K+ job and moved from Australia to the US. Starting over as a Product Manager—building my brand, networking, facing rejections, and trying again.

After 8 months of rejections, I finally landed a role as a Senior Product Manager in a Unicorn company within the industry I love.

Starting again has been humbling, but the best thing is that I know what I teach works, not just in Australia but worldwide.

You’ll learn from behind the scenes as a BEGINNER, a PRACTITIONER and a HIRING MANAGER.

🤔 WHY AM I BUILDING THIS COURSE?

The common heart-wrenching mistake I've seen a lot of people is they pay $5K to $10K for a Certificate and realise the Certificates don't even help them get callbacks for interviews.

That's because there are NO Certificates for product management are recognised by the industry.

(Anyone telling you otherwise is lying to you)

The only way to break into Product Management is through learning, doing, and networking.

In fact, without any certifications or fancy degrees, I have helped hundreds of people secure Product Manager roles in companies like Amazon, Canva, Zendesk, Atlassian, and many others.

❤️ MY PROMISE TO YOU
