Samenvatting:

Master the art of developer marketing and make it big in the AI Gold Rush.

During the California Gold Rush, it wasn't the miners who struck it rich-it was the merchants selling them picks and shovels. Today's AI Gold Rush is no different. The real winners are the ones building tools for developers, and it takes special skills to stand out and successfully market to people who hate being marketed to.

Picks and Shovels is the definitive guide to developer marketing, built from Prashant Sridharan's thirty years of experience helming developer programs at Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, Twitter, and numerous startups. To connect with the most discerning audience in tech, you'll learn how to:

  • Align product, marketing, and sales teams around a shared vision.
