I personally don't see product marketing to be of different types. However, as you setup a product marketing function you need to develop work streams that are led by experts.

  3. Developing sales playbooks
  4. Managing product launches
  5. Churning out content with a regular cadence
  6. Developing competitive outtakes
  7. Managing relationships with industry analysts

You can partner well with key stakeholders like sales, customer success, product, marketing counterparts, and even the executive leadership team (PMM is, after all, directly connected to strategy). You're a Swiss Army Knife when it comes to being the voice of the product and can solve problems no matter what is thrown your way.
