Marketing Leadership Pathway: Building Marketing Maturity in Strategic Client Growth

Hands-on session with Rob Leavitt, SVP, Advisory, Momentum ITSMA

Many clients and members are talking to us about orientating their marketing teams on the highest growth segments, cutting back on investing in lower tiers of accounts. What does this mean for the role of marketing: how you’re organized, the sales collaboration, and the use of insights?

Join Momentum ITSMA’s Rob Leavitt who will step you through our Strategic Client GTM Maturity Framework and assess your readiness to focus your go-to-market strategy.

2:30 - 3:30 pm

ABM Leaders Pathway: Martech in ABM

A deep dive discussion on martech in ABM with Adam Bennington, Head of Consulting, Momentum ITSMA

We’ve spent the past three months working across the martech stack to better understand what’s getting deployed, what the vendors want you to know, and how best to consider tech in your martech strategy.

Marketing Leadership Pathway: Driving Performance with Thought Leadership

Hands-on session with Andy Rogerson, Executive Director, Thought Leadership, Momentum ITSMA

There are few firms in the professional services, financial services, or tech space that do not use thought leadership within the marketing mix. Thought leadership, done well, drives reputation, revenue, and relationships.

Demand is also increasing. 60% of the senior executives we spoke to recently said their need for it has increased over the last 12 months. They want help with their decision-making, and not just on our terms. Great individual pieces of thought leadership are no longer enough. Leaders need to think strategically, embed thought leadership, and use it as the focal point of their marketing efforts.

Join Momentum ITSMA’s Andy Rogerson for this session where he will draw on our recent survey of 225 thought leadership professionals worldwide to explore the barriers and enablers to achieving thought leadership maturity and the full benefits that can bring.

Agenda topics include:

  • Driving a theme-based marketing calendar
  • Customizing for buyers and accounts
  • Co-creating with clients and partners
  • Innovating with thought leadership

3:45 - 4:45 pm

Brad Bortner, Head of Research, Momentum ITSMA and Adam Bennington, Head of Consulting, Momentum ITSMA

Earlier this year in Wave 1 of our annual CBX (Client Buying Index) Research, we provided recommendations to meet cautious buyers with confidence and conviction based on three key insights:

  • Continue to invest in programs that are inherently collaborative

Looking ahead to Wave 2 of our flagship research, we’ll learn how these insights have changed or shifted, how buyer behavior is changing ABM strategies and GTM approaches—and what new trends and priorities have bubbled to the surface.
