Course Overview

What this course is designed to develop

B2B marketing fails when teams treat a six-month, multi-person purchase like a one-click consumer sale. This course replaces that with the methods demand-gen teams actually use, including ICP and TAM-SAM-SOM sizing, the 6-to-10-person buying committee, the demand-creation versus demand-capture split, lead scoring and the MQL-to-SQL handoff, the SiriusDecisions and Bowtie funnel models, and a marketing-sourced-pipeline number you defend to a CFO. You will leave able to target the right accounts, build nurture that respects a long cycle, align with sales on a shared SLA, and report on pipeline and CAC payback rather than vanity metrics.
