Pipeline Meeting - Marketing Podcast About Sales

From CMO to CEO with Jenn Steele at Kissmetrics


Listen Later

Jenn Steele recently became the CEO of Kissmetrics, an advanced product and marketing analytics platform. She talks about marketing and product analytics, using data, and how other marketers can become CEO themselves.

  • Marketing and product analytics. Jenn spent tens of thousands of dollars when she didn't have to. She talks about why. How marketing and product analytics can work together.
  • CMO to CEO transition. Jenn shares her background working at HubSpot, with private equity firms, MIT, and a bunch of other places. 
  • Kissmetrics as a Google Analytics 4 alternative. Jenn talks about how they're adapting their go to market strategy to capitalize on changes to Google Analytics (GA4, specifically).
  • Rebuilding sales and marketing from scratch. Without having any players in sales or marketing seats, Jenn has been recreating those those, recreating processes, and hiring specialists to take these things off her plate.
  • First 90 days as CEO. She walks us through the myriad of tasks on her plate as a new CEO, some of which are not her area of expertise. Like taxes. And all the ways she wants to fire herself.

That's not all. We also reminisce about T-shaped marketers. How companies like Carvana use Kissmetrics. And a big risk of her marketing background: Spending too much time on marketing.
