Earlier this year, we launched GTM Innovators, a series where I sit down with industry leaders and experts, striving to answer one question: “How can B2B organizations create a unified go-to-market (GTM)?” As a current CRO and former marketer working daily to align Sales and Marketing, it’s an understatement to say I’m passionate about effective GTM strategies.
This is why I’m truly excited to share the launch of the GTM Awards – a new awards program we’re partnering on with Pavilion (the 10,000+ member international community of GTM leaders!).
