What we believe
“Successful” multi-channel marketing analytics often do NOT equal an increase in sales.
17%
Only 17% of companies effectively even measure marketing ROI – Forrester
14%
Only 14% think marketing campaigns are “very effective” – Gartner
If the monthly or quarterly marketing analytics do not demonstrate an increase in sales, ask “what’s the point?”
Successful companies are building pipelines and closing new business by concentrating on marketing and sales tactics that have a closer proximity-to-sale, with crystal clear buyer intent and interest.
They are trading ‘lead generation’ for ‘opportunity generation‘, increasing quality at-bats, and lessening wild-goose-chase approaches.
Companies falling behind have minimal at-bats and limited sales. They pump budget into omnichannel tactics that are further and further away from real buyers.
These companies ‘deduce’ that prospects have interest, based on KPIs established in a vacuum, leading to ‘nurture’ tactics, more spend, but still without viable sales volume.
When your sales enablement outreach has a closer proximity-to-sale, interesting things start happening…
INBOUND INTEREST
Prospects start reaching out to you, requesting meetings to learn more about your offerings.
INCREASED AT-BATS
A steady stream of opportunity meetings emerge; you hand them over to your sales team.
MORE CLOSED BUSINESS
You are not generating leads, you are generating interested targets. Sales come as a result.
