Nearbounders, mount up! 🤠

 

marketing Nick and Mark.9

 

So pumped to be speaking at the biggest B2B online event of the year in a couple of weeks. I could not be more passionate about my topic. Here’s why.

People-first GTM is an evolution of inbound marketing. Something that I lived and breathed for more than 10 years.

Inbound marketing is about using content to attract, engage, and delight customers. It has worked incredibly well. But its performance is starting to suffer.

But here’s the thing, we know content isn’t enough anymore. You need content + events + free tools to build an audience. And you need a great story with an opinionated point of view to match it.

And here’s the other truth.

Outbound marketing and selling don’t work like they used to unless you have a well-known and trusted brand. Even then, the economics are starting to get pretty sketchy.

So, enter nearbound.

Nearbound is about surrounding buyers and customers with the right people, relevant messaging, and the right offers to turn them into lifetime customers.

During my upcoming presentation with Nick Bennett, we’ll teach you how to use a People-first GTM approach + nearbound to evolve your go-to-market to help it perform better and be the talk of the town.

To say I’m excited is an underestimate. Giddy up!

Learning is important, especially when we do it out loud, and especially when we do it together. 

 

But we only see real change when we are brave enough to take action on what we’ve learned. 

 

Writer, investor, and entrepreneur, Justin Welsh, recently reminded us all of the importance of this balance on LinkedIn.

And we have just the tool to help you do it. 

 

Workbooks 1-min 1

 

With the Nearbound Summit Workbook, the virtual meets the physical, and your learnings can become your guidebook for the future.  


Participants can follow sessions, get summaries, write down key takeaways and notes throughout the event, and create their plan of attack in a beautiful book delivered right to your door.

Order yours today to get it in time for the Summit!
