Ep 17 – The Dark Funnel and Moving Away from the Fakery of the MQL with Latane Conant CMO at 6Sense
Manage episode 304884134 series 2943493
Every once in a while you have a conversation that truly changes how you think about the world. This episode was that kind of experience for me. Latane Conant is a thoughtful and thought-provoking proponent of a new way to think about marketing for B2B marketing leaders.
In one of the densest 30 minutes you'll invest in your marketing career, Latane covers these topics and more:
- Calling for CMO title to mean Chief Market Officer, in recognition of the larger role CMOs should play vs the questionable KPIs they are often forced to report on
- Abandoning the MQL in favor of a more holistic view of how organizations buy and qualifying them vs individuals
- Targeting people and companies that fit your ideal customer profile AND who are in-market now, relying upon intent data to help reach your "dark funnel"
- CMOs must be maniacally focused on predictable pipeline, sales velocity formula and net retention, the foundations of the SaaS business model
This episode and #16 with Casey Carey are really must-listens for CMOs that see the writing on the wall but don't have the blueprint for how they are going to move their SaaS companies forward. You've realized that stuff you've been doing is declining in effectiveness, but what next?
Let's discuss after you've had a listen!
