Problems We SolveBy Use CasePipeline Generation

Playing the long game with pipeline generation

While many marketers still focus on top-of-funnel lead generation, which remains the most predictable foundation for pipeline generation, more and more marketers are being measured for their contribution to pipeline, which requires an expanded approach and greater alignment with sales. Pipeline generation in today’s environment isn’t getting any easier!

Pipeline generation challenges

Buyers are getting more complex

As our data indicates – and we’ve all experienced, buying groups are getting bigger, and when combined with today’s digital-first buyer, companies are struggling to cut through the noise and drive effective engagement let alone standout amongst the sea of competitors!

Sales and marketing aren’t aligning

Oil and water. Mars and Venus. Pizza and pineapple. Despite our best efforts, sales and marketing alignment remains a core challenge. In fact, our data shows that only 15% of Sales and Marketing teams have overlapping KPIs. How can there be alignment without shared goals and metrics?

Budgets and targets aren’t matching up

It’s no secret – reductions to budgets and resource constraints remains marketers’ top challenge. Combine that with increasing targets that to many marketers (42% actually!) seem nearly impossible, and the idea of generating pipeline can be overwhelming!

Despite these challenges, we’re confident that there’s a bright future for marketers to not only generate pipeline, but to align with sales, and to be on the front lines of accelerating growth within their organizations.

It’s time for marketers to embrace this new norm!

We’re not saying it’s easy, but with the right approach we’re confident that Marketers can embrace these challenges and come away as heroes!

Strengthen alignment

Alignment begins and ends with shared goals and metrics. Understand what matters to your sales counterparts. From there, it’s key to ensure you are targeting the same set of accounts. And then align on your campaigns. Which means the messages and set of motions that are going out into market. Who, what, where, when, why, how often and to what extent. See – as simple as grade school English!

Increase efficiency

We all know we must do more with less. But how? Combining our data with our experience, we believe it starts with strengthening your foundation – your data. Too much precious time is being spent cleaning up incomplete if not wrong data, and that’s time that should be spent better understanding and engaging your prospects and accounts. From there, build with scale in mind. For example, create great content that can be easily personalized to better engage your unique audiences. And last but not least, embrace new emerging technologies such as GenAI. From ideation to summarization, GenAI can be a marketer’s best friend if you embrace it.

Improve performance

With a few small steps, marketers can see significant improvements in their campaign performance and ultimately their impact to pipeline. It starts with taking an integrated approach – thinking beyond the lead. Understanding your buyers journey and aligning your efforts around it. And even as a demand marketer, it’s imperative you both understand and appreciate the importance of creating memorable brand experiences. In fact, it’s the best way to differentiate your product from your competitors!
