The First Playbook Designed to Unleash the Power of Partner Ecosystems.
For years, GTM teams have centered their efforts on the core pillars of inbound and outbound – the only problem is, they no longer work. The fact is, while it’s true, B2B buying has changed dramatically with the rise of ‘digital,’ in terms of how buyers gather information and evaluate possibilities, the way that they actually make decisions has not.
This is especially true in relation to decisions that bear higher risks, such as those seen in the majority of B2B buying cycles. When faced with critical decisions, buyers turn to the same sources they always have – insights formed through trusted relationships. This contradicts what nearly every expert has been preaching for the last two decades – but this book unveils the path that actually works.
