In this episode of the How to Succeed in Product Management Podcast, marketing professor Jeff Shulman and The Product Management Center advisory board members Red Russak welcome Varun Kulkarni (CISCO) and Ash Naik (AAIS) as they discuss the use of predictive analytics in product prioritization decisions. Using predictive analytics in product prioritization decisions is beneficial for product managers because it enables data-driven decision-making. By analyzing historical data and patterns, predictive analytics can forecast the potential success and impact of different product features or enhancements. This empowers product managers to allocate resources effectively, focus on high-impact initiatives, and align their strategies with customer needs and market trends. Ultimately, this approach increases the likelihood of delivering products that resonate with customers, optimizing resource allocation, and driving overall business success.
