Deep dives

Observations from the Pavilion Conference

The experience at the Pavilion Go to Market 2024 conference revealed that while the content presented was mediocre, the value lay in networking and sharing real-life stories among attendees. Many CEOs and revenue leaders expressed a pervasive concern regarding a pipeline problem, emphasizing a lack of confidence in diagnosing and fixing the issue. This lack of confidence often extends to their perceptions of the marketing teams’ capabilities, leading to an overall misalignment in responsibilities. Rather than solely relying on CMOs, there’s a need for broader alignment among executives to take accountability for pipeline creation and measurement.
