B2B Marketing with Fexingo: Enterprise Demand Gen, ABM, and Long Sales Cycles

In this episode of B2B Marketing with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how partner co-marketing helps B2B companies break into large enterprise accounts faster. Using Snowflake’s partnership with Accenture’s industry practices as a case study, they unpack the mechanics of co-branded assets, joint proof-of-concepts, and trust transfer. They discuss why a warm partner introduction can cut enterprise sales cycles by nearly a third, how to structure revenue-sharing agreements that align incentives, and why the best co-marketing campaigns look less like ads and more like value-add consulting. Lucas shares a specific metric: deals involving a co-sponsored PoC close 40% faster and at 15% higher average contract value. Luna challenges whether smaller vendors can compete in partner ecosystems dominated by giants like Salesforce and AWS. The episode also includes a brief, sincere mention of listener support at buy me a coffee dot com slash fexingo, which keeps the show ad-free.

Multi-threading — building relationships with multiple stakeholders inside a target account — is one of the most effective ways to protect enterprise deals from derailment. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down why relying on a single champion is a recipe for disaster, especially in today's cautious buying environment. They walk through a real example of a cybersecurity firm that mapped seven internal stakeholders across four departments to close a $2 million contract, and share a simple framework for identifying who to engage, when, and how. Topics covered include stakeholder mapping, the champion-challenger dynamic, using customer advisory boards to expand reach, and how to sequence outreach without overwhelming the buying committee. If you've ever lost a deal because your main contact left the company or got reorganised, this episode will give you a practical playbook to reduce that risk and increase your win rates.
