Course: B2B Marketing Playbook: Align B2B Marketing With Business Needs
A top challenge facing B2B marketers is organizational fit — how to work effectively with other marketing teams and with sales, human resources, executives, and internal clients. Align your B2B marketing with business needs by convening all the principals with a say in marketing under a big tent to co-create your marketing strategy, metrics, and message together and get everyone on the same page. Also, use employer branding to help your company recruit, retain, and energize talented people. Prepare employees to become brand ambassadors who extend your brand’s reach by sharing content on their social media networks. This course will help you use co-creation to trigger a cognitive bias called the IKEA effect: People assign higher value to what they helped create.

Course: B2B Marketing Playbook: Generate Demand
B2B brands need marketers to generate buyer demand, capture that demand, and turn it into sales. Marketing works side by side with Sales to grow the sales pipeline, win customers, and generate growth in revenue and profits. Demand generation also involves creating content and staging trade shows and events — enabling brands to attract buyers’ attention and convey a message buyers recall. This course will help you diagnose and address conversion problems, enabling your brand to win customers and revenue, generate content that educates and enables the capture of buyers’ information, and maximize value from live events and trade shows.

Course: B2B Marketing Playbook: Empower Sales
In many B2B organizations, Sales and Marketing operate in silos, leading to missed opportunities for strategic alignment, personalization, and consistent messaging. When sales enablement, account-based marketing, and customer experience strategies are unified, organizations can deliver targeted, value-driven interactions that deepen customer relationships and help the brand beat revenue goals. This course will provide you with a strategic foundation for co-creating across disciplines, with practical tools for fostering collaboration, personalizing outreach, and enhancing the customer experience.
