Outperforming the market with strategic client growth

“We’re struggling to hit our targets.” “I’m at maximum capacity.” “My team has been cut and morale is low.”

Burnout is on the rise. Marketers are faced with mounting pressure to deliver more with fewer resources while adjusting to organizational change and disruption.

How are you protecting yourself and your team?

Tamara Keserovic, Head of Marketing, Americas Region at Fujitsu and Robert Hollier, Partner at Momentum ITSMA, will share their thoughts on the rise of burnout in marketing and tips on how to tackle the insidious symptoms.

Hosted by Hannah Gresty, Senior Editor - Thought Leadership at Momentum ITSMA

This December webinar will help you prep for a more positive New Year and ensure your team returns from the holidays fired up and ready to tackle the next challenge.

From burnt out to fired up: How to energize your team

As we head into 2024, creating new pipeline has risen to the forefront of marketing priorities. In many cases, claiming the top spot.

In the second of our webinar series – Supercharge 2024 Growth – we’ll unveil exclusive insights for your strategic planning:

· Discover how marketing can deliver on this mission to create new pipeline and win in existing accounts
· Delve into fresh research shedding light on the buying behaviours of the world's leading organizations
· Uncover the robust case for investing in marketing, and learn how and where to direct that investment to accelerate your pipeline
· Gain clarity on the actions marketing leaders should be taking, and those they should leave behind

From your client's perspective, it's an uncertain world – often high on expectation but low on trust:

· We'll share valuable insights on navigating new complexities
· We’ll highlight where can marketing drive significant value
· We’ll give you a roadmap for marketing to most effectively support sales
· We’ll explain how to orchestrate your people and resources to maximum effect

We look forward to seeing you there!

Creating new pipeline and winning existing deals in your top accounts

Tired of the same old ABM echo chamber? Ready for a fresh perspective? We certainly are, and can’t wait to share it with you. We’re kicking off our webinar series – Supercharge 2024 Growth – to give exclusive insights for your planning.

 The missing ingredients: Why 8 out of 10 ABM programs aren't delivering real growth:

- When buying is becoming harder for clients, sales and marketing leaders are feeling the pressure to generate pipeline, accelerate live opportunities, and secure those big deals.
- ABM is a proven strategy, but it only delivers real impact when it’s done well. The 2023 Global State of Account-Based Marketing report reveals that while ABM programs are performing, there's a big gap when it comes to driving substantial impact where it matters most: revenue growth.
- Discover why your ABM program needs to be more than just a personalized campaign and learn how to bridge the demand-generation chasm.

ABM is a strategy that channels full marketing power to accounts. We’ll discuss why:

- In most organizations, ABM becomes a stop-and-start effort, influenced by leadership changes and a short-term focus.
- ABM programs should play a central role in building long-term reputation and driving year-round sales.
- Generative AI is a catalyst for change, but success depends on aligning the organization and the strategy.
- Marketing leaders must direct marketing at strategic clients and focus on impacting the three Rs – reputation, relationships, and revenue – over time.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Marketing to the C-Suite is more important than ever amid the continuous disruptions of the post-pandemic economy. 
 
Executive-level decision makers are moving faster and shifting strategic focus in ways that require solution providers to keep up or get out of the way. But many organizations struggle to connect and build trusted relationships at the CXO level, thus limiting their ability to achieve the trusted partner status that clients value most.
 
Join Rob Leavitt for a deep dive on executive engagement that builds on Momentum’s extensive research with CXO decision makers and hands-on experience with executive engagement programs at some of the world’s leading B2B firms. The session will explore practical approaches to strengthening executive engagement in five critical areas for C-Suite success:
 
*Identifying and understanding the executives that matter most
*Creating content that speaks to executive priorities
*Enabling sales to engage at the executive level
*Designing the right mix of executive-level activities and experiences 
*Measuring performance for continuous improvement
