Marketing manager should know the disadvantages of a product in order to present them properly

I first met Eugene on Facebook, as is customary in the modern world :) And from that moment every day was filled with intellectual humour with the help of Eugene's memes. And I am very glad that Eugene offered to supplement the techdoor.md portal with his publications in the "Humour" section.

I found out that Eugene played КВН (Клуб Веселых и Находчивых) for a long time and travelled with the team until he was absorbed in marketing.

As a product manager, I have to interact a lot with marketing managers. I see a lot of overlap in our professions, as both marketing managers and sales managers need to have a great understanding of the values and needs of our customers.

Therefore, I decided to contact a specialist with a lot of experience in this field and learn more details about the specifics of the job.

We are thrilled to announce the success of our SUM IT UP #5: Five Dimensions, One Vision event, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of Moldova's IT sector. This event is the first in a series of five, each dedicated to exploring one of the five key dimensions of MITP.

Natalia Donțu, MITP administrator, illuminated the remarkable achievements within the first dimension - Business Development and Job Creation: "In 2023 alone, MITP residents have generated over 1,900 job positions, reinforcing the Park's pivotal role in nurturing new business ventures." This progress not only highlights MITP's function as a hub for business innovation but also its vital contribution to Moldova's employment landscape.

In this first dimension, we also delved into the evolving salary dynamics in the IT sector. For instance, in 2022, the average monthly salary at foreign investment companies stood at approximately 39,000 MDL (~€2,000), marginally below the local companies' average. Yet, these companies with foreign capital showcased higher productivity indicators, underscoring the robustness of our sector.

Stay tuned as we unfold the other four dimensions of MITP in our upcoming posts. Each dimension will provide a unique perspective on how MITP is shaping the IT landscape in Moldova.

Meanwhile, discover more about this first dimension by watching the SUM IT UP #5 event livestream here: https://bit.ly/SIU5-livestream.
