The GTM Sequence
Most healthtech GTM failures aren’t caused by a bad channel choice — they’re caused by skipping a step in the sequence (usually readiness) to get to execution faster.
GTM Fundamentals (“GTM 101”)
“Go-to-market strategy” gets used as a synonym for “marketing plan” — for a healthtech product selling into hospitals or clinicians, it’s closer to a sales-and-distribution design problem than a messaging problem.
Getting Ready for a Strong GTM
Most launches that lose momentum lost it before they launched — positioning wasn’t settled, pricing wasn’t structured, or the launch date was set by the calendar instead of the product.
Executing Your GTM
Execution is where the shared-vs-market-specific split matters most — sales motion design and landing your first pilot customers work roughly the same everywhere; selling into Indian hospitals is its own discipline.
Measuring and Diagnosing GTM Performance
Most founders find out a launch underperformed only when it’s too late to fix cheaply — setting financial and non-financial targets before launch, and a scorecard to track them in real time, is what makes a launch diagnosable instead of just disappointing.
GTM Anti-Patterns and Momentum Killers
Most GTM failures are recognizable patterns, not bad luck — launching before positioning is settled, chasing every channel at once instead of focusing.
