Sales Strategy & Enablement by Revenue.io

Drew Neisser is the Founder of Renegade and CMO Huddles, plus the author of an excellent new book, Renegade Marketing: 12 Steps to Building Unbeatable B2B Brands. On today's episode we talk about marketing and brand building, a subject we don't discuss enough on this show. I loved Drew's new book, in part because of the lessons it holds for sellers, but also because of how similar today's environment is for CMOs and CROs, like:

So, in this same vein, we dig into why Drew believes marketing has become more complicated yet rarely more effective. And why that applies to selling as well. We talk about why it's so important to synthesize your marketing and sales messaging down to eight words or less. Plus, we dive into why brands with clear and consistent messages are far more likely to get the sale than the ones who pursue a matrixed approach, and what that says about the right approach to Account Based Marketing.

Alex Goldfayn is CEO of the Revenue Growth Consultancy and author of the new book titled, Pick Up The Phone and Sell: How Proactive Calls to Customers and Prospects Can Double Your Sales.

The proactive phone call is defined by Alex as calling customers and prospects when nothing is wrong. And we dig into whether sellers are moving away from the phone or is it more about how the phone is being used these days. Plus, we dig into how sellers are using the proactive calling to drive revenue growth.
