I'm Jeffrey Vocell, Director of Product Marketing at Iterable. Prior to this, I led and grew the product marketing team for six years at HubSpot, as the company went from pre-IPO to where it is today.
I’ve been in Product Marketing overall for a little over 10 years now, so I've seen a lot of different go-to-market plans succeed and some, frankly, go not so well. I’m excited to talk through how you can build your go-to-market process in a smaller company and have it evolve with you as your company starts to scale.
Let’s take a look at our agenda. First, I’ll go through the foundations of your go-to-market (GTM) strategy. Then, I'll go through the four initial steps for your first GTM strategy.
Next, I'll go through some foundational GTM plans for companies at around $20 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR). Finally, we’ll wrap up with the go-to-market processes that you need as you scale to $250 million in ARR and beyond.
Let’s break it down here:
- Defining GTM
- Foundations of your GTM strategy
- Four steps for your first GTM strategy
- GTM plans at $20m ARR
- Your GTM process as you scale to $250m and beyond
