"The role of the CMO is evolving in a few key ways. Now more than ever, the CMO is being held accountable to defining efficient growth strategies. This includes leaning into new technologies that help drive scale, especially generative AI. In B2B especially, CMOs are focusing more and more on customer-centricity – helping drive advocacy, retention, and ultimately expansion of the existing customer base. This is absolutely critical in an economic downturn when winning new logos is difficult for most vendors. Last but not least, CMOs are fighting the Brand Relevancy Crisis - trying to overcome the fact that there’s saturation across channels and it’s never been harder to rise above the noise, compounded by a cookie-less world and the explosion of AI-generated content.”
If 95% of your ideal buyers are not “in-market” right now, and said market is completely oversaturated no matter what channel you consider, what does that mean for your business? Well, it means that you’re likely facing irrelevance. Not because you don’t have a great brand or product, but because it’s harder than ever to engage your buyers with experiences and content that keep you relevant. And it's compounded by the fact that the rules have changed, and "growth at all costs" has been replaced by "efficient growth."
