Marketing _is_ real work. Software is only useful if it's being used. Now, it's up to the author (or PO/PM) to define _who_ the users are. If it's an internal team, a slack message to that team's channel saying "hey I made X do y" is marketing, but necessary. Sending a PR to an OSS project is marketing. Updating the docs to show how to use your new thing is marketing.
