Hey - Dave here.
I missed writing these. So I’m back in your inbox.
Quick note on why:
So I’m going to be spending more of my time there and I’m shifting some of our budget around for some new ideas.

Your Success In B2B Marketing Will Come Down To This One Thing: How Well You Work With Others |
I have learned this lesson the hard way.
But guess what: you have to make sure people eat it 🙂
This is why so much of your success as a marketer comes down to your relationship inside the company.
Those are the keys to being successful (and doing good marketing) and they have nothing to do with coming up with creative ideas, developing strategies, campaigns, and "doing" the marketing.
P.S. Since this is my first email back, can you reply and let me know if you read it? Or just to say hello. Or that you didn’t like this email. Or that you loved it. Or that you like my hair (I’m bald). Just reply and say hey. |

📺 Upcoming Events
On January 31st we're hosting a live conversation with Natalie Marcotullio on "How To Improve The B2B Buying Experience With Interactive Product Demos." Natalie is the Head of Growth and Operations at Navattic, an interactive demo platform. In 2024 buyers no longer trust traditional third-party channels like ads or white papers. Instead, they want to get first-party information upfront on your product - before jumping on a live call or setting up a free trial. Learn how to build buyer trust through more hands-on product content, and how to tell a personalized, compelling story with those interactive demo assets. |
