Ways to get involved

Whether you’re a wordsmith wanting to put forward a kick-ass article, are keen to lead a local meetup in your area, or getting on stage in front of 100s of your peers is more your jam, we’ve got something for everyone.

Our goal is to give leading product professionals a platform to do just that. Explore your options below and if you’ve got an idea for another way you’d like to get involved, please do reach out - we’d love to hear it!

Each month, thousands of product leaders from around the world visit our website to read our content, opening the gateway for a lot of exposure to your content and personal brand. Here are the steps to follow to contribute to our site:

So, whether you want to write about crafting the perfect onboarding process, running an ultra-efficient advocacy program, best practices when implementing a snazzy new retention strategy, or anything in between, we want to hear more.

Step 1: Select your topic

Common topics for our articles focus on core product topics, such as:

  • Product-led growth
  • Roadmapping
  • UX
  • AI
  • Product onboarding
  • Product leadership
  • Product operations

Plus, a whole lot more. If you have an idea, pitch it! We'll always be receptive to receiving new ideas that can offer tangible benefits to our audience.

Step 2: Follow the guidelines

We want nothing more than your contribution experience to be fun and enjoyable.

That said, we do have contributor guidelines in place that each contributor must adhere to.

Please familiarize yourself with these before submitting your piece. If your article breaks the rules, it won't be published!

  • Articles to be no shorter than 1000 words
  • Any pictures included to be royalty-free
  • A picture to sit with your contributor profile
  • A short bio (200 characters or less)
  • Also, individual contributions shouldn’t promote your company’s products or services. Sponsorship opportunities incur a fee. This can be discussed with our sales team.

See below for these opportunities!

Step 3: Submit your article

Send us an email, or a message via our Slack channel to express your interest in contributing to the site.

If you're a new contributor, be sure to include the link/attachment to your article along with your profile pic and bio - we'll need these to create your fancy author bio!

Already published something awesome elsewhere?

Not a problem. With custom canonical links, you can still share it with our audience too.

Now, it's time for the boring bits… 💤

“PLA has connected me with product leaders from some of the most innovative companies in the world. I've had the chance to learn from experts in user onboarding, product analytics, growth experimentation, and more. These connections have been invaluable as I've worked on taking products from 0 to 1. I've been able to get feedback on my ideas, troubleshoot challenges, and learn from others who have successfully navigated the idea-to-product journey.”

Siddhartha Saladi
Senior Product Manager

Whether you're looking to expand your network, stay updated on industry trends, or simply engage with fellow product professionals, this group is an excellent choice. Kudos to the organizers and members for creating such a valuable resource!”
