Key Takeaways:
-When B2B sales teams fail to empower their marketing teams with the right measurements, metrics, and goals, they limit their ability to conduct actual marketing — and that’s the missing piece in their strategy.
-Don’t focus solely on lead numbers. Look at how much pipeline your marketing brings in, where it comes from, and how it happens.
-Dark social is around 99% of the market. When potential customers are outside the buying cycle, you can’t collect or track their intent data, which keeps your approach reactive instead of proactive. And you’re going to miss out on a lot of sales.
