The B2B Mix Show

Is Account-Based Marketing (ABM) part of your current sales and marketing strategy? Or maybe you’re considering implementing it into your process? You’ve probably heard a lot about ABM; however, we are going to take a slightly different look at it to help you take your ABM efforts to the next level.

On this episode, we chat with Billy Bateman the Co-Founder of ChatFunnels, a digital conversation analytics and optimization solutions provider. He has a background in digital marketing, business operations, and entrepreneurship.

In this episode, Billy shares ways to improve your ABM efforts:

• How to organize your sales and marketing teams to work together as a single ABM team with a single purpose and how to clearly define roles and shared metrics.
• Tips for building your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) to ensure both sales and marketing are on the same page.
• How sales and marketing should work together to perfect messaging and promotion/outreach.
• How to make the handoff from marketing to sales work.
• How to manage the process when you have disparate systems.
• How to ensure the marketing goals support the sales goals and address the misalignment of goals that create friction between the two teams.

Do you struggle creating meaningful connections with fellow leaders? You’re not alone. Many executives find it difficult to make real connections in todays business world. Many turn to online groups to try and forge connections and seek advice; however, many groups fall short of creating an atmosphere that promotes building meaningful relationships. But there are groups out there that have mastered the art of groups. CORE Connect is one of those groups. Meagan DeMenna is the Chief Growth Officer at CORE Connect and she shares her thoughts on how to build stronger relationships to improve your performance.

In this episode, Meagan shares:

• What CORE Connect is.
• What were the issues or gaps that led them to create CORE Connect.
• Why sales and marketing executives are hesitant to be vulnerable in groups.
• Figuring out what type of group is right for you and when you’re ready to join a more in depth group like CORE Connect.
• What benefits can someone experience from joining a group.
• How the lack of “real life’ connections between professionals led us to the point where we have to be more intentional about joining groups like CORE Connect.
• What you get with the CORE Connect membership.

Let's face it: ABM requires a bit of a mindset change, and it can be tough to conquer if you try to eat the elephant in one sitting. That's why we've kicked off our new season with two experts on the subject!

In this episode, we welcome Brenna Zenaty and Shea Castle from Terminus to discuss how companies can assess ABM readiness and move forward with a crawl-walk-run approach to account-based marketing.

Meet Our Guests

Brenna: Brenna is the Senior Enablement Manager at Terminus. In her role, she manages the creation and delivery of customer education and training programs through Terminus's support knowledge base, user community, and e-learning academy. Prior to joining Terminus in 2017, Brenna was the marketing manager at an inbound marketing agency. She lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her husband and two goofy Boston Terriers, Frank & Rue.

Shea: Shea Castle has been at Terminus for 3 years, working as the Senior Customer Marketing Manager, focused on programs to support customer engagement, ABM education, product adoption, retention, and expansion. Before joining Terminus, he worked in a variety of marketing roles across demand gen, content marketing, product marketing, and ABM. He's passionate about helping marketers do cool things. If he isn't talking ABM, he's probably talking about Star Wars.
