Effective product marketing can make running successful paid media campaigns a breeze. Unfortunately, in many organizations, these two teams donât collaborate as they should.
Demand gen teams often take messaging and positioning into their own hands. They test and iterate messaging based on performance, resulting in the original messaging and positioning looking nothing like the initial version.
Furthermore, nobody informs product marketing, so they start from scratch with every new feature release or product launch.
Despite this, demand gen teams seem to lack fundamentals in product marketing. Content creation is often driven by fun or entertainment value, leading to great engagement but poor conversion rates.
Join us this week with our guest Drew Spencer Leahy as we delve into the product marketing fundamentals necessary for successful demand gen programs. -

Marketing should own a revenue numberâthat's a mantra we've all heard before. It's an enticing idea, imagining marketing taking charge beyond just funneling leads to sales. Yet, putting this into practice is often a rarity.

We're finally starting to see an increase in humorous content in the B2B sphere. There's been a noticeable surge in entertaining content lately, which is like a breath of fresh air for all of us.
However, while this trend is enjoyable, what's its actual impact? Does it drive revenue? Does it enhance brand recall? Does it improve product understanding and desirability? Or could this creative content boom potentially lead to more marketing layoffs?
Join us this week with Todd Clouser (dubbed "The worst marketer in the world") as we delve into the art of creating fun and creative content with a clear purpose that ultimately improves bottom-line results. -
In this week's episode of Digital Banter, we're thrilled to have Ross Simmonds as our special guest. We're diving deep into the world of content creation and distribution, exploring a critical issue that often gets overlooked: the disconnect between content creation and effective distribution.
Many brands invest significant resources in crafting top-notch content, meticulously researching their audience, developing personas, and addressing pain points and objections. Yet, despite these efforts, content often falls short because distribution is an afterthought.
In this episode, we're flipping the script. We're putting distribution at the forefront of your content strategy, highlighting the importance of repurposing content to maximize its reach and impact. Additionally, we'll delve into the innovative ways AI can streamline the distribution process, making it more efficient and effective than ever before. -
The main source of conflict between sales and marketing often stems from the perception among salespeople that the sole responsibility of marketing is to support sales efforts. Whether you agree or disagree, what if this perspective is accurate?
As marketers, it's essential for us to drop our egos every once and awhile, and look at ourselves in the mirror. Whether it's crafting engaging campaigns, refining branding, or unleashing creativity, we need to ask ourselves: What is the ultimate goal beyond just "selling more"?
This week's episode features Scott Logan, SVP of Marketing and Demand Generation at Connex One.

When people think of ABM, they often believe they need $200K in technology and an additional $200K in media spending. The good news is that this perception is completely inaccurate. In fact, you shouldn't invest a dime in either of these without a concrete strategy and a proof of concept.
Join us this week as we invite Mason Cosby to the show. He will delve deep into how to initiate ABM and execute it effectively, even on a budget. -

Marketing & Sales Alignment: Despite all the talk, only a handful of companies have it figured out.
Sometimes, marketing listens to sales calls; occasionally, both teams are tied to the same revenue target.

In this week's episode of Digital Banter' we engage in an eye-opening conversation with the award-winning creative director, Kevin Rapp. Together, we explore the world of B2B creative and how it often falls into the trap of being dull and overly logical, focusing more on selling to companies than connecting with people.

But that's not all. We understand that creative development can be costly, which is why Kevin Rapp shares his winning strategy for crafting cost-effective content systems.
