    Discussion of Go-To-Market worksheets from homework

Go-To-Market (GTM) effectiveness is surpassing the importance of the product to become the dominant reason why companies succeed or fail. A phenomenal product has become table stakes; a successful GTM strategy is not.   

What is Modern Revenue Generation?

In this new world, companies are increasingly required to orchestrate and leverage every function of the company to align around complex and coordinated GTM motions. It is no longer enough to simply point to the sales organization and expect them to deliver a functioning GTM. Instead, sales, marketing, customer success, and even product must work together to bring products to market.

Delivered by serial entrepreneur and MIT Entrepreneur in Residence Adam Blake who will draw on a wealth of real-world experiences to bring relevant examples, data and knowledge to this workshop.

This workshop will cover the principles underlying the four major Go-To-Market motions: Product Led Growth, Inside Sales, Field Sales, and Partnerships, with deeper dives into the newer motions (Product Led Growth and Inside Sales).

In addition, traditional GTM stages will be explored with a focus on how each role in your organization (not just your sales team) needs to behave to maximize the ability to generate sales leads, perform growth marketing and operate a modern customer success organization.

This event is supported by the Department for the Economy.
