The 30/60/90 Day Plan for Customer Marketing in Cybersecurity with Antu Buck
Episode Summary:
Antu Buck didn’t plan to end up in customer marketing. She started in sales, carrying a bag as a BDR and enterprise rep, before realizing the part she loved most was building customer relationships. That path led her to McAfee, Intel Security, and now Gigamon, where she’s the Senior Director of Customer Marketing & Community.
In this episode, Antu explains customer marketing, how it grew from “reference calls” into a core pillar of modern marketing, and why advocacy, community, and lifecycle programs all matter. We also discuss the common mistakes companies make when they treat community as a checkbox, how to prove ROI in a low-disclosure industry, and what it takes to turn a happy customer into a true superfan.
Listen in as Antu previews her 30/60/90-day playbook for building a customer marketing program and catch the full plan live at CyberMarketingCon.
