B2C PM Skillset

I am currently working as a PM in B2B Space. But I want to develop PM Skillsets for B2C space as well.

Can someone please share what are most important skills/tools a B2C PM Should know. Do share relevant resources if possible!

I’m a b2c pm

  • spend time with users, they f up a lot, all your assumptions are mostly wrong
  • good design taste
  • data heavy work (if not you then have a well trusted analyst)
  • speed of iteration (mvp-> hit goals-> next milestone), throw lot of things at wall, see what sticks
  • don’t ever make dark patterns might help with initial number boost, eventually users will hate you for it
