B2B Go To Market Strategy: Why Your Lead Gen Is Broken
Your lead gen program is filling a CRM and burning your market at the same time.
In episode one of The 15 Minute GTM Fix, a miniseries with our friends at Dealfront, George Coudounaris and Kevin Chen break down why so many B2B go to market programs quietly fail. If you run marketing in a small team and you are stuck firefighting instead of building, this one is for you.
We pull apart the gated ebook play every marketer gets asked to run, why it destroys buyer trust before sales ever picks up the phone, and what to do instead. Then we walk through the Five BEs framework - the flywheel we use to move a go to market motion from reactive chaos to something that scales.
Tune in and learn:
+ Why traditional lead gen produces MQLs that never convert
+ What 95% of your market is doing while you chase the other 5%
+ The difference between capturing demand and shaping future demand
+ How brand marketing and demand marketing work together
+ The five stages of the BEs framework and how they compound
If you are a marketer in a small B2B team being asked for leads with no time, no budget, and no strategy behind it, start here.
