It’s all about revenue
Getting started – baby steps & a
roadmap for Tech Firms
The Revenue Engine
Revenue and demand gen – not
a golden handshake
Revenue – Most Important Metric
Revenue – Most Important Metric
Demand Gen must
drive Revenue.
74% of companies that weren't exceeding
revenue goals did not know their visitor, lead,
MQL, or sales opportunities. Hubspot
80% of marketers report their lead generation
efforts are only slightly or somewhat effective.
BrightTalk
80%
92% marketers list qualified leads as their top
goal. But only 15% of organizations are
measuring against this goal. TrueInfluence
B2B Demand Gen Trends Survey 2017
6
Be Relevant or Lose Customers
There is no middle ground.
70% of business buyers says it’s absolutely critical for companies
to provide a personalized experience.
74% of business buyers conduct more than half of their
research online before making an offline purchase.
75% of B2B buyers would purchase again from suppliers that
offered omni-channel capabilities.
The Reasons CX and thus Demand
Gen Fail
No Executive Buy In
Customers expect to be engaged in real time, and on a personal level. This is now the baseline.
No Cross Channel Strategy
Lack of a demand generation strategy across the customer journey.
No Personalization
B2B buyers, after experiencing efficient digital purchasing with popular retailers, expect the same
experience at work. B2B is not immune from CX.
CX Fail Outcomes
The Big Three.
CX + Demand Gen don’t
equate to Revenue
Reality. No golden handshakes.
What ails Demand
Gen
and...Revenue
Isolated systems.
Lack of Single View of the Customer
.
Missing cross channel demand gen and
CX strategy.

No personalization….no relevance.
Limited Executive buy-in.
Your data lives in siloes
You can’t measure. You can’t report.
