Sales and Marketing: B2B’s New Power Couple
Adam Blitzer, GM & SVP of Salesforce Pardot
When Marketing and Sales are in lockstep, revenue soars. Unfortunately,
many companies still struggle to make Sales and Marketing alignment a reality.
Conflicting goals, a history of failed strategy, and lack of technology all too often
keep these two departments at each other’s throats. What if you could unite
these two teams and sell more effectively than ever before? Adam Blitzer, GM
& SVP of Salesforce Pardot, has been on both sides of the fence in Sales and
Marketing and will cover best practices for closing the gap with the help of
marketing automation.

Account-Based Marketing: Welcome to The New Reality in B2B
Megan Heuer, VP & Group Director, SiriusDecisions
It’s the classic disconnect: While Sales talks accounts and opportunities,
Marketing talks segments and solutions. Smart marketers know the secret to
fixing this: Account-Based Marketing (ABM). Now a major trend in B2B, ABM
aligns marketing efforts with sales goals and customer needs. In this session,
we’ll share the types of ABM and how they fit into a best-in-class B2B marketing
portfolio. We’ll also explain the toolkit that enables a scalable approach to ABM
and improves alignment with Sales. Finally, we’ll share examples of success
along with findings from our survey about the current state of ABM in B2B.

nirvana still exists more in slideware than the real world. In this session, we

reality, including the following:
