Recently, I saw someone in the Maimai community ask: What is the difference between a 15K product manager and a 25K product manager? Some pulse friends think that it is: it depends on luck, and the boss can draw cakes. And the more praised answer is……
The most praised answer is: the former is the implementation of functions, and the latter is the architecture model.
In addition to the basic landing ability of team collaboration (now AI can assist in improving efficiency), advanced capabilities such as mining business scenarios, insight into new needs, building upstream and downstream business value chains, and outputting industry solutions are also the reasons why enterprises are willing to give high salaries.
As can be seen from the figure, product professional ability and soft ability as general capabilities are the foundation that every product manager must have, and the more solid this foundation is, the more conducive it is to the upgrade of the overall ability of the individual in the later stage.
The business ability of the industry and the business ability determine how far the product manager can go, and if either of these two is missing, the follow-up work will fall into the bottleneck of the stage, because you don’t know what to do, the goal is not clear, and you don’t know how to make decisions and trade-offs.
As a result, many product managers will fall into the dilemma of “functional product manager/office product manager” after a few years of entering the industry. Groping alone without anyone, growing up savagely on the road of the workplace, hitting walls everywhere
1 A product manager trapped by a wild road
Jingjing – small company – 3 years of B-end products
3 years of experience in C-end medical-related products, the company is small, only my product, and I will also do some B-end product work.
After getting the requirements, there are few ideas of their own, and they are basically still in the stage of collecting requirements, sorting out requirements, and drawing prototypes. The company also does not have a standardized B-end product systematic process, and its growth is very limited.
Afraid of becoming a product tool person,If you want to change jobs to a more professional team/environment, how to show personal value/product value on your resume? Calligraphy – Project Manager to B-end product – 4.5 years of experience
At present, I have taken over many systems, from CRM to financial system to BPM system to class platform…… Often very small emergency optimizations.There are many iterations, very busy, and there is no time to familiarize yourself with the system to precipitate your thinking.During the interview, I didn’t even dare to say that I had done this.Is this kind of work unintentional, if avoided becoming the norm? How to sort out during the interview?
In the past few years of product manager fire, most of the product people have almost changed careers to B-end, some are technology transferred, some project managers have transferred, and some design has been transferred. Most people are troubled by:
- Lack of core skill support necessary for the position, and do not understand the complete process of B-end products from 0-1, it is difficult to carry out work and cannot get results.
- Lacking experience in large project operations, he is a prototype tool person every day, and is forced to fall behind in the rapid changes in the Internet environment.
- Lack of business cognition, even if you know the theory, you don’t know how to use it, and you will be overwhelmed when you switch application scenarios.
Any of these points can directly affect yours if not adjusted in time:Career development, rank promotion, salary increase.
So, as a product manager, how can you grasp the direction and rhythm faster?Get rid of low-wage miscellaneous work as soon as possible and become an excellent product person with long-term professional competitiveness?
2 How do Yeluzi products break through the dilemma?
My suggestion is: follow the big guy to learn the system’s product professional skills + business knowledge.
- There are people who bring and do things in a spectrum:The boss has experienced various business projects, and the methods summarized from practical operations can not only save you a lot of detours, but also make you have a spectrum of ways and methods of doing things.
- Someone brings it and understands in advance what it is, why and how to do it:A systematic approach to product capability advancement allows you to look at the problem from a more holistic perspective when facing complex product work, and better understand why you are doing this and how to do it.
For example, in a professional company, there will be a set of growth and training programs for product managers, from P1 to Pn, and the focus of learning work is completely different. In this way, even in new industries and fields, you can quickly make some interpretations based on your original abilities and get started quickly.

In this way, even in new AI industries and fields, you can quickly do some interpretation based on your original capabilities and get started quickly.
After 3-5 years of work, the gap between you and others also widens rapidly, because you do not directly reuse your existing experience, but reuse the ability precipitated from your experience. If you are in the process of transforming a product manager/being a product manager,Because of insufficient industry insight, weak business analysis capabilities, and weak design capabilities, etc., they have repeatedly stepped on pits.
