In this episode, we have another top-notch RevOps guest, Greg Poirier, CEO of CloudKettle, a consultancy that helps enterprises build and optimize their Revenue Operations.

He has even gone through multiple acquisitions, including one by Salesforce. After wearing many hats, Greg knew his passion lied in what we now call Revenue Operations, and thus CloudKettle was born, where he gets to handle RevOps for many enterprise organizations. The gang chats with Greg about the limitations of doing RevOps internally, role specialization on your RevOps team, and his very HOT TAKE on attribution models (imagine that, a RevOps leader from Salesforce has strong opinions on how attribution should be done!).

Episode Description:Executive Producer Ben Wilson sits down with Lauren to discuss her predictions for 2021, including the evolving interface between digital and brick and mortar, how to connect when in-person meetings aren’t possible, the future of data and what some of her personal predictions will be in what we all hope will be a better year than 2020.3 Takeaways:Data trust will become increasingly important in 2021. It will be vital for organizations to know where their data is coming from, how much they can trust it, and what systemic errors might be present in their data sources.Brick and mortar retail isn’t going to return to the pre-pandemic way of doing business. A new hybrid model is emerging that will likely continue going forward. Digital events are going to be with us for a while - if they are done the right way. Digital events that can offer meaningful, high-quality interaction or access to valuable people and information will still be valuable, even as in-person conferences make a comeback.Key Quotes:“This was the forcing function for every single business to lean into digital. I even think about, all of the restaurants and there are so many restaurants that are impacted by this. I was speaking with a friend about this who had worked for software companies specifically for restaurants, and what they had mentioned to me was sales are up and I went, how are sales up? I thought the restaurant industry has taken such a big hit, and it was well now all of these restaurants that never really had to care about digital, they didn't really have to think that much about takeout or touchless ordering. That has to happen.”“It's really similar on the marketing side, both marketing professionals and IT professionals have had to adapt more quickly this year than probably any other profession. And it's this idea of don't rely on your laurels, adapt pivot as fast as possible for marketers, especially enterprise marketers who really heavily relied on in-person events, field marketing, that one-to-one interaction that's gone, but I don't know a single marketer who had a quota reduction because this year we all had to keep driving demand.”“I want to say in 2021, it'll be a little bit lighter, it'll all be easy. It hasn't happened yet in 2021. Maybe it will, but it's just going to keep going, and the added complexity that'll happen in 2021 is optimistically the second half of the year we'll be able to see each other in person again. So now IT professionals and marketers now have to go, ‘we knew the old world we pivoted and made this new fully remote world work. Okay. Now you have to make both work and they have to work together.’”Bio:Lauren Vaccarello is an award-winning marketing executive with a track record of accelerating revenue growth for the fastest growing SaaS companies in Silicon Valley. With a strong background in demand generation, she excels at building scalable integrated campaigns that leverage cutting edge marketing techniques. Although performance is at the core of who she is as a marketer, she believes businesses need to tell compelling stories and build a brand if they want to own a category.Lauren also co-authored the highly-regarded books “The Retargeting Playbook” and “Complete B2B Online Marketing.” She has held executive leadership roles at Box, at AdRoll, and at Salesforce.

This episode features an interview with Lauren Vaccarello, CMO of Talend.Lauren is an award-winning marketing executive with a track record of accelerating revenue growth for some of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in Silicon Valley including Box, AdRoll, and Salesforce.On this episode, Lauren talks about how to hit your numbers in the short term while working to expand the scope of who you’re selling to in the long term. She also discusses how to leverage your executive team to build brand trust, and shares a couple uncuttable budget items that may surprise you...Key TakeawaysThink of demand gen and marketing in both the short term and long term. How are you going to hit your numbers while also expanding the scope of who you’re selling to.Demand gen must start with defining who you are, why you matter, and who you’re selling to, then you can determine how you’re going to execute.With large enterprise deals, it's about emotional connection as much as it's about your product and your messaging.Invest in the backend and the “unsexy” things like tech infrastructure, because they’ll make everything else you do easier and faster.Quotes“Investing in things like executive programs, executive engagement, and building deeper relationships with senior level executives at your target audience is the gift that keeps on giving. You’ll hit your numbers today, and the more they see you as a strategic partner, the more your deal size is going to grow.”“Every CMO who comes in has to get points on the board quickly. The shine wears off our penny probably faster than any other function. You have to show momentum, and I find getting those short term wins buys you time to get long term wins as well.”“What's going to make or break every single demand gen person in the foreseeable future is your ability to be agile and adapt. If you can't move quickly, you're dead in the water. The world is moving too fast...So invest in the backend, invest in the unsexy things that no one sees or understands why you're doing it, because it's those backend, unsexy, tech infrastructure things that make everything else you do faster and easier.”“Our job as leaders is to remove every blocker and every obstacle and to give the people that work for us the ability to be creative.”“Because what we do is so visible, every single person in your company will have an opinion about what you do. And you have to listen to every single person and you have to have thick enough skin to not take it personally.”“I won't cut PR. I cannot ascribe a dollar return to my PR program, but what I've seen in the past is the anecdotal qualitative that just proves that it works...I've seen it enough times-–you're going to get better candidates, better employees, faster velocity, and your inbound interest and brand awareness just start to tick up.”LinksTruth Be Known Podcastwww.talend.comSponsorDemand Gen Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com, the #1 Conversational Marketing platform for companies that use Salesforce and the secret weapon for Demand Gen pros.

Taking on a larger and older competitor can be intimidating. They have more people, money, and resources to throw at you and try to knock you out. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. With the right strategy and execution, newer entrants can out-compete and eclipse their larger competitors. On this episode of Marketing Trends, we talked to Daniel Rodriguez to find out how. Daniel is the Head of Marketing at Alyce. Previously, he served as the VP of Seismic, where he helped it eclipse, and eventually acquire, the previous market leader. In this interview with host Lauren Vaccarello, Daniel also talks about ABM, the importance of consistency, and how to approach new channels. Links: Full Links, Quotes, & Notes: http://bit.ly/2MVnWV9 Daniel’s LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/drodriguez4/ Daniel’s Twitter: twitter.com/dlrdaniel Website: alyce.com/ 3 Key Takeaways: - When implementing an ABM strategy, it’s not enough to target the right accounts. You need to create an experience that wows your target audience. - All marketers should think of themselves as innovators or fast-followers when it comes to finding and exploiting new channels. - Consistency is key. It’s easy to get bored with your messaging when you create it and hear it every day, but your target market hears it far less. --- Marketing Trends is brought to you by our friends at Salesforce Pardot, B2B marketing automation on the world’s #1 CRM.

Tune in for an extra bonus episode hosting SaaStock LatAm speaker André Baldini, CEO of Superlógica. Superlogica was started back in 2001 as an ERP software for condominiums. André Baldini started out as VP of Sales In 2017 he was promoted to CEO. Previously his career path had traversed a variety of industries including banking, health and EdTech. The common denominator between each was the use of technology and making an impact on people's lives. He has certainly had a massive impact on Superlógica. In the last three years, it has grown from 60 to 225 in headcount, 10x in revenue and now serves 4 different verticals. The biggest reason behind that growth is a switch to a full blown SaaS model starting in 2016. In my conversation with Andre we get deep into the story behind that switch, how pricing plans were created and the pitch adjusted. André is one of the speakers we will host in São Paulo for SaaStock LatAm on April 23-24th. There, he will be joined by speakers such as Aaron Ross, Co-CEO of Predictable Revenue, Lauren Vaccarello, VP Marketing Box, Eric Santos, CEO of Resultados Digitais and many others. As Andre told me on the podcast, conferences like SaaStock coming over to Latam are key to helping the SaaS industry mature from its Early stages. I certainly hope we can contribute to the strengthening of the community. Join us SaaStock LatAm and grab your ticket before we sell out.
