01 / Positioning for MediaTech

Most MediaTech companies don't have a product problem.
They have a positioning problem.

TDMW helps MediaTech and AI platforms turn complex video infrastructure into clear, differentiated narratives that actually sell.

We work exclusively in MediaTech: MAM, PAM, Media Supply Chain, encoding, and AI.

02  /  Why this is different

MediaTech GTM is not like SaaS.

MediaTech products are rarely simple point solutions. They sit inside production workflows, media supply chains, creative operations, rights environments, broadcast infrastructure and AI-driven content systems.

That means the buying journey is different too.

The buyer is not just asking "what does it do?"
They are asking:

  • Will this fit our existing workflow?
  • Can our technical, creative and commercial teams understand the value?
  • Can Sales explain the product without oversimplifying it?
  • Can buyers defend the investment internally?
  • Does the story make sense beyond the demo?
03  /  The Reality

Your product makes sense internally.
It doesn't make sense to the market.

If you're honest, you're probably dealing with...

  • Messaging that sounds technical, but doesn't land
  • A product that's powerful, but hard to explain
  • Sales teams telling different versions of the story
  • Marketing that generates activity… not pipeline
04  /  Point of view

MediaTech is not SaaS. And it shouldn't be marketed like it.

You're not selling a simple tool.
You're selling...
Workflows
End-to-end production reality
Infrastructure
Mission-critical pipes
Transformation
How teams actually operate
AI
Layered across all of it

Generic B2B playbooks break here. TDMW exists to fix that.

05  /  Experience

Built from inside MediaTech, not borrowed from generic SaaS.

TDMW is led by Martin Coles, a MediaTech marketing and GTM leader who has built positioning, demand and pipeline engines across MAM, Media AI, video infrastructure, content supply chain and creative workflow businesses.

The work comes from inside the category: shaping narratives, building GTM systems, supporting Sales, working with Product, launching campaigns, managing events, and turning technical platforms into stories buyers can understand, defend and act on.

06  /  What we do

We make complex platforms make sense, and make money.

01 / Foundation

Positioning & Category Design

If your positioning is unclear, everything downstream breaks. We define what you are, what you're not, and the narrative that makes buyers care.

  • +What you are (and what you're not)
  • +The category you play in, or create
  • +The narrative that makes buyers care
  • +Messaging that lands with technical buyers
02 / Strategy

GTM Strategy

We turn positioning into something executable: a plan your commercial team can actually use.

  • +ICP definition that reflects real buyers
  • +Segmentation across media workflows
  • +Ecosystem & partner mapping
  • +Commercial-ready GTM playbook
03 / Execution

Pipeline & Growth Execution

Strategy is useless without execution. We build campaigns, content, and programs aligned to how MediaTech buyers actually buy.

  • +Campaigns that generate real pipeline
  • +Content that positions you as a category leader
  • +Programs aligned to MediaTech buying cycles
  • +Measurable, attributable outcomes
04 / Leadership

Fractional CMO

When you don't just need advice: you need leadership inside the business.

  • +Own and lead GTM end-to-end
  • +Align Product, Sales, and Marketing
  • +Build a growth engine that scales
  • +Operate as part of the leadership team
07  /  Why TDMW

  • We understand why your messaging isn't landing
  • And we fix it faster
