    SaaStrophe Series: Where Are The Leads by Iris Dings, Sr. Content Manager @ Unmuted

    🚀 Key Takeaways: Why defining leads together with sales is critical for marketing successWhy "more leads" isn’t always the answer—quality over quantity mattersHear about the pitfalls of short-term lead generation strategiesIn this piece, I dive into my experience as a marketing manager, where the demand for more leads became my personal nightmare. The sales team’s relentless call for leads—without a clear understanding of what a lead actually is—created constant pressure. The recurring question was: “Where are the leads?” But rushing to create leads just for the sake of numbers doesn’t work. Becoming a qualified lead is a process, and not everyone who downloads content is ready to buy. Tune in for a candid look at how marketers can shift their approach from chasing numbers to building real opportunities that convert.

    🚀 Key Takeaways: Why collaboration between marketing and sales is essential for successThe importance of customer research and understanding the productTimeless advice from Eugene Schwartz: Great marketing starts with listeningTune in for a candid conversation about what happens when marketers fly blind and how to avoid marketing in the dark. In this episode, I share the story of my time as a fractional product marketer at a cybersecurity SaaS startup—where things weren’t quite as they seemed. The website was full of buzzwords, stock photos, and AI claims, but something was missing. During my research, I discovered the sales team had a brilliant deck customers loved. Naturally, I suggested using it for the website. Then came the twist: the CMO had never seen the sales deck. That’s when it hit me—marketing and sales were working in silos, with no customer insights guiding their efforts.

    SaaStrophe Series: The Campaign That Never Was by Yulia Olennikova @ N.Rich

    🚀 Key Takeaways: Why attribution windows can obscure long-term successHow SEO campaigns can take time to pay offThe value of documenting and celebrating wins, even if they come too lateTune in for a behind-the-scenes look at what happens when marketing success doesn’t fit neatly into reporting timelines—and why patience in campaigns sometimes delivers the biggest wins. In this episode, I share the bittersweet story of a campaign that seemed destined for failure—until it wasn’t. We lined everything up: new landing pages, revamped content, and paid ads. At first, the data looked grim, and after 90 days, the campaign was declared a flop. But then something surprising happened: a revamped blog post started ranking on Google, bringing in 20k+ clicks per month and hundreds of conversions—all organically. The only problem? By the time the results rolled in, management had already moved on.

    🚀 Key Takeaways: The importance of having backups and contingency plans for live eventsWhy audiences are often more understanding than we expect during hiccupsHow surviving a live-event disaster can make future presentations feel like a breezeTune in for a lighthearted look at how things can go wrong, how we recovered, and why I now approach live presentations without fear—because once the internet goes down mid-webinar, nothing else seems as scary! In this episode, I recount the heart-pounding story of a live webinar disaster that still makes my palms sweat just thinking about it. We had everything planned perfectly—partner collaboration, smooth intros, and a couple of hundred eager attendees. Then, mid-presentation, the internet in our office block went down. What followed was 10 minutes of sheer panic, with the team scrambling for a solution—only to have a nearby developer casually show us how to use a phone hotspot. When we finally got back online, we found our partner still presenting, with attendees joking that we had taken an extended smoke break.

    SaaStrophe Series: The $40k Email Nightmare by Jacalyn Beales @ Copy.ai

    🚀 Key Takeaways: Why calculated risks in marketing sometimes pay off—but not without consequencesThe importance of QA processes and segmentation (yes, even for risk-takers)How to turn mistakes into learning opportunities that fuel growthTune in for a candid, behind-the-scenes look at how we fumbled, panicked, and ultimately came out on top—proving that even the pros aren’t immune to email nightmares. What happens when two bold marketers decide to break all the email marketing rules—and end up with a $40k surprise? In this episode, I share the nerve-wracking (and slightly hilarious) story of how an overly ambitious email campaign led to a massive overcharge from our email service provider. With one million recipients targeted and segmentation thrown to the wind, we found ourselves scrambling to fix a mistake that could have cost us dearly. But here’s the twist: the world didn’t end. Leadership was understanding, our email rep worked magic, and the campaign somehow exceeded expectations despite the chaos.

Because sometimes the toughest part of closing a deal isn’t selling—it’s getting through the paperwork. In this episode, I share the ongoing nightmare that every SaaS marketer and sales professional dreads: the procurement process. After 3 months of selling, securing buy-in from champions, and jumping through countless hoops, we finally got the green light—or so we thought. Just as we were gearing up to launch, the real challenge began: privacy reviews, procurement red tape, and finance approvals. Even with all the right certifications—SOC2, GDPR, Security portals—you’d think it would be smooth sailing. But 2 months later, we’re still stuck in a loop of explaining, re-explaining, and waiting for the final nod.

    🚀 Key Takeaways: The dangers of overhyping AI capabilities and releasing products too soonHow poor internal communication can derail even the most exciting ideasThe importance of realistic timelines, ethical marketing, and clear labeling systemsJoin me for a firsthand account of how "Pulling an AudienceGenius" became martech shorthand for making bold promises without the tech to back it up. This is a cautionary tale about innovation gone wrong—and how to avoid turning your next idea into a marketing nightmare. In this episode, I share the jaw-dropping story of how one eager marketer accidentally launched a campaign for a non-existent AI feature—and the chaos that followed. As a fractional CMO at a rising star in the martech SaaS space, we were excited to develop AudienceGenius, an AI concept meant to revolutionize content automation and consumer insights. But the excitement got ahead of reality when a draft announcement email hit our entire customer base, promoting a product that didn’t even exist. What started as an internal brainstorm quickly snowballed into a PR crisis, forcing our team to build the feature from scratch in just four weeks. The result? A half-baked AI tool, lost customers, resource drains, and shattered morale.

After spending $72k on Google Ads and generating 900 leads over the course of a year, they asked me to audit their campaign to see how many of those leads turned into paying customers. The result? Zero. Not a single one. What went wrong? They weren’t targeting the right audience. This story dives into the dangers of focusing on leads without aligning them to revenue, the pitfalls of poor targeting, and the messy reality of attribution in B2B marketing.
