Rethinking Marketing ROI: A Holistic Approach

In this week’s live event, Chris starts by discussing the misconceptions surrounding marketing ROI within the B2B space. He criticizes the conventional wisdom that overly focuses on attributing ROI at the campaign level and stresses the necessity of examining ROI from an entire department perspective. This shift, he argues, allows for more creative and impactful marketing strategies that align better with business-level outcomes.

Throughout the episode, Chris discusses real-world scenarios, including his consultation with a large SaaS company struggling with declining marketing efficiency. He emphasizes the importance of viewing the GTM strategy as a cohesive "revenue factory," where various departments work together harmoniously to drive core business metrics. He shares insights on diagnosing and resolving inefficiencies by using data smarter, stressing the dangers of being too granular with metric segmentation and the flaws of the four-funnel model that many companies adopt.
