Q&A with Dmitry Chervonyi, Chief Marketing Officer at Belkins

Dmitry Chervonyi, Chief Marketing Officer at Belkins, works towards shaping growth-boosting marketing strategies as well as fueling sales funnels with qualified leads, exploring opportunities, and developing exclusive campaigns for every business he works with.

I believe that a successful business is not about money, it is about the benefits of society. Money will inevitably come if your product or service is really good.



MEDIA 7: Could you please tell us a little bit about yourself? What inspired you to pursue a career in marketing?
DMITRY CHERVONYI:
Ever since childhood, I loved to invent stories with the help of which I involved other children in the games that I wanted to play. It took me about 10 years to realize that I wanted to work in marketing. I have 2 degrees - I am a design engineer and a Master's in Intellectual Property. In my specialty, I did not work even a day. But there was a good school. When it came time to decide what I wanted to do all my life, God gave me memories from childhood and wisdom to understand what my talent was.

M7: What is the process of effective lead generation at Belkins?
DC:
An effective lead generation process at Belkin's consists of 3 simple steps:
1. Business analysis and search for quality leads.
2. The best set of automation tools and the best copywriting of email templates.
3. Our unique approach - multichannel outreach, Linkedin influencer services, and Folderly - service for increasing email deliverability. It allows us to be more effective than our competitors because our emails always get into the inbox.


In addition to regular personal calls with the team lead, training, and mentoring, we have very good motivation. Our goal is the success of our client.



M7: How do you ensure that your sales team understands and presents the products in an engaging manner?
DC:
Good question. In addition to regular personal calls with the team lead, training, and mentoring, we have very good motivation. We are not an agency that only provides outreach or cold calling, lead research. Our goal is the success of our client. Because this way we will earn more. We have extensive experience in many business verticals, so we know the average success rates of our campaigns. We also evaluate the complexity of the product, this affects the conversion to a meeting. For each project, we have a number of meetings that we must provide to our clients. And each of our SDRs is interested in fulfilling this quota by 100% because for this he will receive very good bonuses.

One more thing - we only hire the best SDRs.

M7: What marketing channels do you use and which ones do you see as the most promising, given your target customers?
DC:
We now have some good channels:
- Referral
A lot of clients come on the recommendation. Because they are not ashamed to do this, and they are sure that we will make every effort to bring results.
- Content marketing
We share our knowledge in lead generation, sales, and marketing. Because we believe that the more successful companies there are, the more potential customers we will have.
- Organic search
Google loves our content and shows it to people looking for answers in sales and marketing. I cannot reveal all my plans, but we have actively taken up YouTube for the last few months. I think B2B marketing will also transform into video formats.


A lot of clients come on the recommendation. Because they are not ashamed to do this, and they are sure that we will make every effort to bring results.



M7: How do you target content to your audience, and what are the challenges that you face while producing effective content?
DC:
We know our clients' profile very well. We have several, depending on the size of the company. One of the challenges is how to make quality content faster. You may notice that each article is unique with cool pictures and different graphics. It's not fast. But the result is worth it. We make our content as for ourselves.

M7: What do you believe are the top three product marketing challenges in the post COVID-19 era?
DC:
Difficult question.
1. Trust in the brand. No cheating. I believe that a successful business is not about money, it is about the benefits of society. Money will inevitably come if your product or service is really good.
2. Automation with a human face. It seems to me that now everyone is okay with automation. But it is important that the user can very easily contact a company representative and solve their problems. We all now lack human communication. People want to communicate with people, not bots.
3. Probably, the safety of the user's personal data and privacy. This is really getting to be missed.

M7: What is your marketing mantra to stand out in an overly saturated MarTech space?
DC:
Customers first. If you don't solve your customers' problems and make their lives better, then it is a waste of time to do this kind of business.

Marketers Given Marginal Grades for ABM-Driven Revenue Growth

GlobeNewswire | January 25, 2024

Seeding and harvesting the sales pipeline — the process of acquiring, capturing, qualifying and converting business opportunities — are essential to the growth and profitability of B2B marketers across every industry and geographic sector. Marketing is largely responsible for driving this business process, yet nearly two-thirds of lead gen and engagement strategies are underperforming. A new Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) Council report, produced in collaboration with WM America, entitled “Fire Up Your Revenue Generation Engine,” covers critical aspects of lead generation and engagement. This includes models and metrics for tracking and measuring performance, best practice demand-gen execution, ways to score effectiveness, and more. The latest CMO Council research finds scores of marketers falling behind in lead scoring, account-based marketing, accelerated pipeline, and intention-based marketing. Key findings from a Q4 survey of over 170 B2B marketing, sales, revenue, growth, demand gen and campaign execution leaders include: 63% say marketing must own and optimize a company’s revenue-generation engine 64% say their lead gen and engagement strategy underperforms 78% of highly evolved marketers are satisfied with their accelerated pipeline, compared to only 15% of lesser evolved marketers “In today’s competitive data-driven environment, marketers should no longer be satisfied with paltry returns on their sizable lead-gen and ABM investments,” the report notes. “It’s time to turn the tables on inefficient, ineffective, and outdated practices for anticipating, adapting, and responding to customer needs and opportunities.” “Marketers must climb the evolutionary ladder and leave behind outmoded and dated practices,” notes CMO Council executive director, Donovan Neale-May. “Using AI-derived, intention-based buyer data and advanced sales intelligence are among the ways growth marketers bring more precision, predictability, and performance to B2B account marketing investments.” The CMO Council’s research revealed the top five skill sets contributing to improved ABM-driven business outcomes: Better segmentation and precision targeting of buyers and influencers On-demand customer business intelligence and personal buyer insights Tighter integration of demand gen, channel, direct sales, and support teams Greater utilization of tools and data sources for richer prospect profiling Proactive and timely pre-sales follow up and cultivation strategies The CMO Council has uncovered widening gaps in performance between highly evolved marketers and lesser evolved marketers. Gaps are occurring in four core capabilities: lead scoring, account-based marketing, accelerated pipeline, and intention-based marketing. This report tiers factors that make up a model for better identification, engagement and conversion. The model coincides with the CMO Council and WM America’s thought leadership initiative to advance lead revenue science practices through a certified Lead Evaluation and Assurance Process, or LEAP model. “Marketers will need to take a few LEAPs of faith in the coming months, because sticking to the status quo is just not practical or possible anymore. As data becomes more critical than ever before, CMOs need to extend their visions for innovation and forward-thinking strategies,” according to Lee Salem, WM America’s Vice President of Sales. Methodology The report is based on a survey of over 170 heads of B2B marketing, sales, revenue, growth, demand gen and campaign execution in Q4 2023. It also included content from in-depth interviews with executives from Netline, Autodesk, T-Mobile, NTT, ABM Consortium, TechTarget, IBM, B2B Marketing, Reachdesk, Momentum ITSMA, and Xometry.

GlobeNewswire | January 08, 2024

IGLeads enables marketers to construct qualified, target audiences based on intent signals such as conversation topics and interests, rather than traditional firmographic filters. “IGLeads has built a unique way to deliver verified target audiences based on interest, intent, and social engagement versus traditional firmographics. IGLeads is well suited for Banzai’s customers, and we’re excited to have a chance to integrate its capabilities into our other offerings,” said Joe Davy, CEO and Founder of Banzai. “Brandon has built an efficient, profitable, and high-growth business. We’re excited to take it forward to the next stage of growth.” Compelling Strategic and Financial Benefits Profitable growth business: IGLeads is a highly profitable, rapidly growing business that Banzai can leverage to drive additional scale and acquisition opportunities. Complementary product offering: Banzai intends to integrate IGLeads’ all-in-one lead generation platform to better serve existing customers with cross-sell opportunities.
