B2B Marketing is at an inflection point. It’s more difficult than ever to stand out with buyers. Organizations are now remote-first or hybrid. Long feared data privacy regulations are on the horizon. The game has changed and CMOs are under intense pressure to be more efficient with every marketing dollar.
Changing Foundations of B2B Marketing
In-market buyers are hidden
Decision-makers are harder to reach
Budget is wasted on irrelevant buyers
3P data has a rapidly shrinking shelf life
The inconvenient truth is that lead-focused strategies were built for another era. In fact, less than 1% of marketing qualified leads convert from pipeline to revenue according to Forrester.
The Revenue Impact Gap
The result of these market dynamics is that marketing is facing a revenue impact gap. The status quo – current B2B marketing strategies – is not cutting it. Incremental efforts like adding intent data are great, but they’re not the silver bullet other platforms would have you believe they are.
How do CMOs deliver a sustainable growth advantage, and maintain their seat at the go-to-market leadership table?
Today’s imperative is to maximize the value of ideal customers throughout their lifecycle with account-based brand awareness, pipeline generation, pipeline acceleration, customer retention, and expansion.
Drive More Value at Every Stage of the Revenue Flywheel
Traditional marketing playbooks aren’t working anymore. Lead generation and pipe creation aren’t enough. The only way to revitalize the role of marketing as a revenue engine is to engage target accounts across the entire customer lifecycle.
No more vanity metrics like form fills and lead volume. And no more wasting spend on the wrong buyers. Marketing teams now MUST focus on real business impact – a sustainable growth advantage throughout the revenue flywheel.
