# Go-to-Market (GTM): Definition & Guide

A go-to-market (GTM) strategy is a plan that details how a company will launch a new product or reach new customers.

Definition

A comprehensive roadmap that outlines how a company will launch a product to market, reach its target audience, and achieve a competitive advantage.

## Core Pillars of a GTM Strategy

A successful GTM strategy answers four key questions:

1.  **What are you selling?** (Value Proposition)
2.  **Who are you selling to?** (ICP & Personas)
3.  **Where will you sell it?** (Channels)
4.  **How will you sell it?** (Pricing & Sales Motion)

### Types of GTM Motions

-   **Product-Led Growth (PLG):** The product drives its own adoption.
-   **Sales-Led Growth:** High-touch human-led sales for enterprise.
-   **Marketing-Led:** Heavily reliant on brand and demand generation.
-   **Partner-Led:** Selling through third-party ecosystems.
