#25 Steve Watt | Beyond “Best Practices” - What Fear Holds B2B Marketers Back?


Listen Later

It’s no doubt… Most of our learnings come at the end of a comfort zone.

So this time I had a pleasure to sit down with Steve Watt to talk about what holds B2B marketers back, culture of testing everything, his career and much more.

Steve is a co-founder of Toronto ABM Summit, ABM strategist at Quarry (marketing firm exclusive to B2B tech) and VP of marketing at Avanti software (which creates a better employee experience, from hire to retire).

Here’s what we cover in this episode:

  • Turkey Bazaar Marketing vs SaaS Business Marketing is it really different?

  • Culture of “test driving everything” and how it relates to Account Based Marketing

  • Numbers Game vs Personalization in Marketing

  • What was the best investment Steve has made in his career
