The Power of Discovery for Increasing Win RatesMike Kunkle
This is the webinar I delivered on 11/08/2017 on how to conduct a highly-effective consultative discovery to improve sales effectiveness and win rates.
The rapid rise of ABM has transformed the B2B marketing landscape, and yet most companies are still early in their ABM journey. How should companies best expand their programs? What can we learn from ABM leaders? Looking ahead to 2020, how should we invest to optimize ABM impact.
Beginning in 2017, ITSMA and the ABM Leadership Alliance have provided essential data and insight on ABM strategies, practices, and results with annual benchmark studies of early stage and more mature programs.
CMOs should use accountability to build a bridge between marketing and the rest of the organisation. To change the perception that marketing is a cost centre, investments in marketing must translate to the bottom line results. Yet most marketing professionals don’t dare to to assume accountability on the bottom line results and to prove their contribution to the organisation. Last year we launched the first study called ‘Can B2B marketers show ROI?’, as we wanted to see how CMO’s has taken MPM into their organisations in 2015, we re-visited about 30 CMO’s and surveyed them about this topic.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly: Making Content Work for the Sales ForceCarla Johnson
If content marketing supports the sales cycle, why are so many companies bad at it? It’s not a shortage of technology. It stems from sales and marketing not having walked the proverbial mile in each other’s shoes. This lack of understanding causes friction between what sales teams want and what marketing delivers—and when.
This session will help B2B marketers understand the sales side of the house, how the new customer journey impacts sales, the financial cost of misalignment between marketing and sales, and how to create content that not only resonates with customers, but also engages and excites your sales team. This presentation covers:
- How to uncover different expectations sales and marketing have around the customer buying cycle and sales enablement
- Find out why marketing and sales have such a different approach for a common goal – getting customers and bringing in revenue
- Learn the new rules of responsibility for sales and marketing as it relates to content marketing
- Understand how marketers can speak the language of sales in order to develop more relevant content during each step of the buyer’s journey
The Dashboard Experience - Getting the Customer into a Relationship with Them...James Root
E-commerce customers will begin to see a new user interface for the shopping experience. The UX and UI will be designed to make the customer the center of gravity. The storefront design and content will be determined by the patterns and preferences of the customer rather than the merchandising agenda of the store. The primary benefit to the new user interface aka "dashboard" will be that profound insights about the customer are surfaced and then presented back to the customer themselves. Done correctly, a positive reinforcing feedback loop will be established.
This slideshare deck describes the way that customer behavior shapes the new dashboard experience and how e-commerce stores must present themselves in order to bring in the customer.
This presentation was originally created to help sell Oracle Commerce (Endeca and ATG) but in principle it will work with most major e-commerce software and experience management platforms.

Nurturing. Another of those words we hear again and again. What’s so great about nurturing?
With so much of the buying journey unassisted by sales, marketing needs to be able to accompany buyers through their journey with the right content. The delivery of the right content at the right time is the role of nurturing. And that works equally well when we’re nurturing a prospect towards an initial sale – as it does when we’re nurturing customers towards repeat or additional purchases.
In this presentation, we will cover topics such as:
• What the buyer journey looks like, pre- and post-sale
• Ways to maximise customer lifetime value
• What content works at each stage of the buyer journey
• Marketing automation and CRM systems: what are they good for?
• Marketing automation: don’t get carried away by hype
• What should we be measuring and when

The year’s biggest event for B2B services marketers is the ITSMA annual conference, which last year’s featured dozens of speakers, workshops, and smaller events and one-to-one consultations. Presenting were experts and pratitioners from ITSMA, Cisco, CSC, EMC, Dell, IBM, Avaya, Thomson Reuters, McKinsey, Harvard, KPMG, Deloitte, and Oracle.
The breadth of topics covered by speakers demonstrates that marketing’s responsibilities keep expanding. The number of new tools and technologies is also growing fast, which heightens the importance for marketers of planning well, measuring results, and staying connected to internal and external stakeholders. And for all the focus on marketing technology, data analytics, and digital engagement, the biggest takeaway from the conference may be that old-fashioned person-to-person interaction—with customers, internal stakeholders, and marketing peers—is essential for both professional improvement and personal well-being.

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
