Go-to-Market Strategy (GTM)

The plan that defines how a company will launch a product or enter a market — including audience, messaging, channels, and motion.

A go-to-market strategy is the full plan for how you bring a product, feature, or company to market. It covers: who you're selling to (ICP and segments), what you're saying (positioning and messaging), how you're reaching them (channels and tactics), what motion you're using (sales-led, product-led, or hybrid), and how you'll measure success. A GTM strategy is built before campaigns begin — it's the upstream document that all execution flows from.
