Stacking Growth | The B2B Marketing Podcast

On this episode of the Marketing Movement, our talented trio of creatives (Maria, Courtney, and Devon) guide is ways to augment the client/customer relationship through actionable, beneficial, and constructive feedback. No longer will you have to deal with vague terms like "make it pop!" or "could this be more dynamic?". Listen up and make your feedback sessions more positive and productive!

We are back for PART TWO of our self-reported attribution breakdown. Ashley (Director of Demand Gen), Silvia (Director of Demand Gen), Tory (VP of Demand), and Dan (Performance Marketing Manager) are back with a vengeance. They came back for two things: to uncover actionable insights that will fuel your future growth and to chew bubble gum... and they're all out of bubble gum. 

In Part One of this series, a star-studded cast of demand gen experts dissect what makes a great attribution strategy. Ashley (Director of Demand Gen), Silvia (Director of Demand Gen), Tory (VP of Demand), and Dan (Performance Marketing Manager) discuss how to find that memorable moment that potentially moved your prospect into the process of becoming a customer. It's not a fix-it-all button, but it can augment your data with qualitative insights. Keep an eye out for Part Two coming soon!

Jessica Williams (VP of People), Jordan Anderson (People Operations Manager) and Hope Wood (People Operations Coordinator) from our People team hosted an episode all about whether Unlimited PTO is a sham or a value add.

Jessica Williams (VP of People) and Rebecca Hart (Talent Advisor) hosted another episode of The Marketing Movement to talk about transitioning from a traditional workforce to a distributed workforce, like we have here at Refine Labs. They cover the difference between remote and fully distributed, pros and cons, and how we approach team building and employee morale as a fully distributed workforce.

This episode was repurposed from an episode Sam Kuehnle (VP of Demand Gen) recorded for the Mastering B2B Marketing podcast. He discussed common challenges he notices when working with B2B SaaS companies and how to fix them as well as the importance of customer research in determining how your market likes consuming information. He shared insights on content mediums and topics as well as lead gen vs. demand gen and how we differentiate the two at Refine Labs. 

Todd Clouser, Senior Brand Marketer at Refine Labs, and Mateo Elvira, Founder at Elvira Media, discuss how the SDR role is evolving into a content creation role to build brand affinity. They explore the dynamics between sales and marketing calls, the use of TikTok for content creation, overcoming imposter syndrome, and the value of understanding the end user and repurposing content.
