  1. Pipeline Success

    01/06/2023

    Pipeline Success

    Sales and Marketing is challenging right now. The economic uncertainty has led to deals stagnating and requiring more conversations just to maintain the status quo. This can lead to bad habits which create problems right through the pipeline, including within marketing. Less than 20% of companies have implemented the approaches we are going to discuss, but those that do, report an average of more than 200% annual revenue growth. Riaz Kanani, CEO/Founder of Radiate B2B sat down with Mark Osborne, MBA, author of new book "Are your leads killing your business?" and Founder of Modern Revenue Strategies. We will cover off: 1. The changing environment that is forcing you to adapt and change. 2. Attracting the right clients 3. Accelerating Deals through the Pipeline 4. Activating clients for renewals, upsells, and referrals Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Lost in Sales Data

    This ThinkHuman session titled "Lost in sales data - the good and the bad of sales data" is joined by two brilliant speakers. Only a third of a salesperson's time is spent selling so the increasing demands on salespeople to make their communication relevant requires even more research time. So where better to focus our attention than on the use of data in sales. What is the best approach to using data in sales today? The session, chaired by Riaz Kanani, CEO/Founder of Radiate B2B will be joined by Patrick Thorp, CRO of Ebsta and Jake McCone, Data Manager at Punch! We will cover off: 1. Data and Sales today - the landscape and need 2. Account based vs lead based approaches and using data to succeed 3. Should data personalise, or should it be relevant? 4. Is it time for a dedicated data person inside sales? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  8. The evolution of the outbound animal

    The evolution of the outbound animal

    When the world changes, you need to evolve. In B2B sales today, evolution is now a necessity. With only 17% of buyers' time spent across all suppliers and almost half the time spent independently researching (Gartner), sales teams need to change. Worse, increasingly the new generation of buyers prefer a rep-free buying experience. Today 54% of millennials prefer it vs 29% of Baby Boomers. It is only the complexity of the purchase that is keeping those communications alive (Gartner). The place where sales interactions occur is changing as well. Gartner has predicted that by 2025, 80% of B2B sales interactions between suppliers and buyers will occur in digital channels. How then to evolve? Hosted by Riaz Kanani, Founder/CEO at Radiate B2B, he will be joined by: Adam Gray, Co-founder DLA IgniteAlex Abbott, Founder at SuperoNadja Komnenic, Head of Business Development at Lemlist This session will cover: 1. The changing buyer. What has changed and what does it mean? 2. Balancing automation vs manual 3. The rise of the dark funnel 4. Online vs offline - what has changed? 5. Personal branding and sales Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  9. The End of Sales and Marketing Alignment

    31/05/2022

    The End of Sales and Marketing Alignment

    The sales environment looks very different today to even three or four years ago. Research from Gartner showed that “Enterprise buyers are 57% of the way through the buying cycle before contacting a vendor” and even then only 19% of their time gets spent with all vendors combined. The need for sales and marketing alignment has been a hot topic as a result - requiring joined up buying experiences that deliver in advance of first contact and right through to renewal. Failure to do so results in greater pipeline churn and longer sales cycles. This combined with more stakeholders to nurture across more channels means change is a must. Hosted by Riaz Kanani, CEO at Radiate B2B. Riaz will be joined by Andy Champion, GM EMEA at Highspot and Andrew Davies, CMO at Paddle. This session will look at: - How close a collaboration is needed? - The case for bringing marketing inside sales? - Or building sales development inside marketing? - How the best go to market teams are adapting? - How to nurture these teams over time to retain your best talent?
