Scott Holden is CMO at ThoughtSpot and previously VP Marketing at Salesforce. Scott joined ThoughtSpot when the team was just three marketers and helped grow the team to 36 marketers today and from 0 to $100M in ARR. We talk about that journey, how the team has changed and evolved, guerilla marketing in the early days, why you need to build an analytics foundation, why he doesn't believe in having a demand gen team, his team structure, direct reports, weekly meetings, how his CEO thinks about marketing, and why marketing should always be proving it's worth.
