In this podcast session, I had the opportunity to speak again with Debbie Qaqish who is the Principal and Chief Strategy Officer of The Pedowitz Group – a Revenue Marketing™ firm that helps B2B companies and their marketing leaders transform marketing from a cost centre to a revenue centre.

In it, we discussed the topic of marketing enablement, which is an emerging marketing function. Specifically, we consider what it is and how it could help B2B companies align marketing and sales to drive revenue growth.

For those not familiar with Debbie, she is a nationally recognized thought leader, innovator and speaker on the topic of Revenue Marketing with more than 30 years of experience applying strategy, technology and process to help B2B companies drive revenue growth.

She is also the author of the award-winning book – “Rise of the Revenue Marketer,” Chancellor of Revenue Marketing University, and host of Revenue Marketer Radio (WRMR). Debbie has been at the forefront of the marketing automation phenomenon, first as a beneficiary, and now as an advocate and expert. Having coined the term “Revenue Marketer” in 2010, Debbie is considered, by many, to be the “original” revenue marketer.

Debbie is also a Ph.D. candidate, and her dissertation topic is on how the CMO adopts financial accountability in an e-marketing environment.

Enjoy!
