23. Which of our products or brands do you believe have the most marketing potential?
What You Need to Know
The interviewer is checking to see if you have done your homework on their company and its offering. Take a look at the company website, its products, services, and brands. Take note of the offers that appeal to you the most. If you have the time before your interview, think up a quick marketing plan that you could pitch in your interview. By showing the interviewer how you would pitch the company's products, you are taking action and positioning yourself as an engaged team member right from the start.

Entry Level Example
"In university, I completed a case study on a product similar to Product ABC, which I see you started offering this year. This product has huge potential because the need spans a wide range of ages, all genders, and regions. I brought some highlights from this case study with me if you'd like to have a look at my work and findings."

Product Manager Example
"The fact that Company ABC has so many incredible products is one of the reasons why I felt compelled to apply. If I had to choose just one product, it would be Product ABC because I see a growing need for its features in the market, and not a lot of other companies are delivering on this product in the most optimized manner. I have already thought up a slogan and a sharable ad campaign for social media if you have the time for me to share my ideas with you today."

Experienced Example
"This agency represents Brand ABC which I think is amazing, and your team has been doing an incredible job with the marketing approach. I see that your agency also manages Brand XYZ and, although different, I believe represents a similar target audience. My first thought is that Brand XYZ could be a substantial offering, even surpassing Brand ABC in sales, with similar marketing strategies applied. I would be happy to provide more formal notes on my ideas if you're open to the idea."
