    From Random Acts to Scalable Growth: The $100M Revenue Blueprint

    Episode #226: Joshua Leatherman explains why many B2B companies stall around 80 to 100 million when a sales-led approach exhausts the easier parts of the market. He shows how to replace random acts of marketing with a scalable go-to-market system that unites demand marketing, sales development, revenue operations, sales, and client success around a shared process and attribution.  “Often, private companies hit an inflection point. Once you reach a certain point, around 80 to 100 million, they start to plateau. Usually, this is because they are sales-led and have not built a scalable go-to-market team that includes demand marketing, sales development, revenue operations, and sales and client success. Companies are focused on sales and need to learn how to build scalable teams.” – Joshua Leatherman Joshua highlights a practical blueprint for moving from activity to outcomes. He identifies the core issue as misalignment and missing revenue operations, then outlines how demand marketing surfaces in-market intent while SDR and client success extend pipeline quality and expansion. The result is a predictable motion that scales beyond the plateau and aligns teams with revenue, attribution, and the voice of the customer.

This really helps build that trust and honesty.” – Naomi Brez Naomi unpacks the trust recession, dual-track growth, and retaining A-players during reorgs.

    Turning B2B’s Biggest Challenges into Competitive Wins

    Episode #224: Brian Gilman, Chief Marketing Officer at ThetaRay, explains why AI has equalized claims and intensified a B2B trust gap. He shows how quickly getting into the room with C-suite buyers reframes discovery around business outcomes. He details why alignment across product, sales, and finance prevents roadmap drift. He closes with a practical lens for activating authentic customer voice. “As a buyer, I'm more likely to evaluate you as a vendor if you can better articulate what you're going to bring to my business above and beyond just technical specifications, and if your solution can help impact those inherent risks in the business, you provide significantly more value.” - Brian Gilman Brian shows how M&A rigor and an outcomes-first mindset help executives cut through AI-fueled sameness. He explains why quickly getting into the room with the C-suite re-centers discovery on measurable business value. He also highlights how cross-functional alignment protects roadmaps and accelerates adoption in complex deals. Follow Brian Gilman on LinkedIn Follow host Steve MacDonald on LinkedIn

    How to 3x Your Sales: Building the Trust Funnel

    Episode #223: Patrick McGuire, Chief Revenue Officer at Kompound, unpacks a trust-first system for scaling sales. He shows how short videos, tailored one-to-one demos, and service-led follow-through turn credibility into revenue, and why involving customer success early keeps wins compounding long after the close. “I really believe that the secret sauce is trust. It's doing business the way it's supposed to be done. If I can't trust you, we can't do business, it's not going to work, and you're not going to close deals. So, I believe the way to 3, 5, 10x your sales is by gaining trust and sharing and loving and giving excellence to people when you get a chance to. It's that trust funnel.” – Patrick McGuire Patrick highlights a practical “Trust Funnel” that maps value-first touches to buying intent. He recommends a lightweight video sequence that diagnoses the buyer’s biggest problem, shifts into focused one-to-one sessions, and brings customer success into motion to sustain momentum with the goal of creating a human-centered path to higher win rates, lower CAC, and repeatable growth.

That’s where the great decisions and ideas come from.” - Stephanie Davis Smith Marketers will learn how Stephanie trims channel sprawl, repurposes content for efficient reach, and uses customer psychology to turn early excitement into lasting advocacy.
