  • #149: Marketing Leadership | 16 Lessons I Wish I Knew As First Time B2B Marketing Leader

    Dave shares the 16 lessons he wishes he knew as a first-time marketing leader, going from marketing manager to CMO in four years. This is a recording from Metadata's DEMAND 2022 virtual event in October 2022. The lessons include:


    1. Forget acronyms
    2. The story is the strategy
    3. Think hard about “offers”
    4. Push your team past incremental thinking
    5. Get on the same page as sales
    6. Don’t “be” finance and ops...partner with them
    7. Master internal communication
    8. Articulate the strategy
    9. Think short-and-long-term
    10. Understand what the CEO cares about
    11. Make hiring your job, not a side project
    12. Create your own momentum
    13. Your job is to get the job done
    14. But do the job first, before hiring externally
    15. Get comfortable making bets without perfect data
    16. Spend the budget (all of it)
