About this episode

Transforming revenue isn't just about cold calls and content—it's about having the audacity to try something new and alignment with your goals.

In this episode of Revenue Makers, Saima Rashid and Adam Kaiser chat with 2X CEO Domenic Colasante, about how he is boldly reimagining marketing tactics. Colasante's approach with 2X highlights a crucial point: traditional marketing methods are becoming outdated. By turning trucks into billboards and targeting CIO hotspots, he demonstrates how thinking outside the box can be a powerful force in enhancing brand visibility.

For high-achieving revenue leaders, consider this conversation a call to reevaluate your ABM strategies and empower your teams to courageously embrace new ideas. Throw out your old scripts and transform your sales approach by infusing your marketing with a human touch and turning faceless statistics into a narrative that drives engagement and conversions.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

The effectiveness of account-based marketing (ABM) strategies in driving sales adoption - Learn about Domenic's firsthand experience with an innovative ABM campaign for Siemens and take away key insights on how you can apply similar strategies to captivate high-value accounts and shift your sales organization toward more targeted and effective approaches.

The importance of aligning sales and marketing through not just data, but human interaction - Domenic delves into the necessity of educating sales teams on the transition from traditional marketing qualified leads (MQLs) to intent-driven ABM. Discover how to foster a culture of collaboration by bringing human conversations and joint efforts to the forefront of your marketing efforts.

Maximizing your existing marketing technology before seeking new solutions - Domenic explains how conducting thorough tech stack health assessments can unveil opportunities to enhance your capabilities and add value without significant additional investments. Embrace the power of using what you have to its full potential and learn how to drive better results while reducing costs.
