“With remote and hybrid work environments, increasing data privacy regulations and evolving economic conditions, buyers are harder than ever to reach,” said Natalie Cunningham, CMO of Terminus. “Add to that, increased budget scrutiny and B2B marketers can’t afford to miss opportunities to engage with their ideal customers. Advertising is the lifeblood of marketing programs, and Terminus’s solution clearly leads the way in helping marketers maximize their spend and drive meaningful revenue impact.”
“With remote and hybrid work environments, increasing data privacy regulations and evolving economic conditions, buyers are harder than ever to reach,” said Natalie Cunningham, CMO of Terminus.

6sense | September 28, 2022
Today, Latané Conant, Chief Market Officer at 6sense, announced the second edition of her book, “No Forms. No Spam. No Cold Calls.,” a modern, must-have manual for sales and marketing leadership seeking to hone their craft and forgo the status quo by truly embracing their customers’ needs and habits. After the initial release of the book in 2020, Wiley, global leader in publishing, education and research, picked it up to distribute internationally. Over 15,000 first edition sales indicates the book’s intrinsic value and demonstrates the need to continue to help more teams with this expanded second edition.
“No Forms. No Spam. No Cold Calls.” shines light into an opaque business environment where an estimated $2 trillion in waste prevents companies from achieving predictable revenue growth. It is a step-by-step guide that will transform how professionals think about marketing and selling in the modern age, equipping them with the strategies and tools they need to eliminate guesswork and other outdated practices.
“This book was born to meet the needs of a new generation of sales and marketing leaders who are ready to ditch the traditional strategies, tactics, and technologies that are no longer working,” said Conant. “The nature of our work at 6sense and the scope of cross-industry customers we serve gives us a profound view of the need for a how-to guide to revolutionize sales and marketing efforts and enable all businesses to proceed with confidence. We put these strategies to work at 6sense, enabling us to achieve 1,136% three-year revenue growth and rank #550 on the 2022 Inc. 5000.”
In the two years since the book’s initial release, Conant has compiled more critical information to better equip sales and marketing leaders with the latest strategies and tactics to succeed in 2023 and beyond. As a result, in this version, readers can expect:
Conant’s and 6sense’s collective knowledge and industry expertise on modern marketing strategy and the tactics to make them happen.
An all-new chapter, “The Modern Sales Organization,” authored by Mark Ebert, 6sense’s Senior Vice President of Global Sales, dives deep into the latest and most effective selling principles from the Chief Revenue Officer perspective that put sales teams in a position to win.
Foreword by Jason Zintak, CEO of 6sense – someone who started and grew his own career as a business development representative (BDR), outlines the credibility and timeliness of the book, provides solid rationale for change and calls to action to create better B2B buyer and go-to-market experiences.
An FAQ chapter answers questions about how to put these modern sales and marketing approaches into practice — including a step-by-step guide to implementing an authentic, spam-free nurture program.
Key sales and marketing topics spanning data, AI, technology stacks, customer experience, B2B buyer behavior, prospecting, personalization, pipelines, the role of BDRs, lighting up the Dark Funnel™, all things account-based marketing, and more.
The mindset shift required to be a market expert, how it benefits your entire organization, and what you’ll need to leave behind to drive change.
“This book challenges sales and marketing leaders to engage customers the right way, in the right place, at the right time to achieve predictable revenue growth. It lays out exactly how to enable sales and marketing teams to take pride in the customer experience and put prospects at the center of everything,” said Ebert. “It’s a prescriptive roadmap to uncover customer demand, prioritizing which accounts to work, engaging the entire customer buying team, and measuring real success and revenue growth.”

BUYER INTENT DATA
TechTarget | September 30, 2022
TechTarget, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTGT), the global leader in B2B technology purchase intent data and services, today announced that it has launched Priority EngineTM for Healthcare to help sales and marketing teams leverage its proprietary prospect-level intent data to fuel more opportunities and pipeline with buying groups at top companies across the healthcare industry. This new offering provides direct access to Xtelligent Healthcare MediaTM (acquired in August 2021) and TechTarget’s combined opt-in audience of healthcare tech and business decision-makers in one SaaS solution delivering customized insights specifically for B2B organizations targeting healthcare.
“Being able to provide our customers with 1st party intent data on the largest healthcare technology and information audience on the web is a true game changer in our industry,” said Sean Brooks, Co-Founder, Xtelligent Healthcare Media. “Sales and marketing teams will now have direct access to entire healthcare buying teams, including Clinicians, Line of Business and IT Decision-Makers, to find more opportunities and accelerate technology deals.”
These new enhancements:
Add thousands of new accounts and 400,000+ new contacts into Priority Engine to provide better visibility into and opportunities to engage with full buying teams across the entire interconnected healthcare ecosystem, including: Providers, Health Systems, Payers, Pharmaceuticals, Life Sciences, Accountable Care Organizations and Federal/State Healthcare Agencies. This includes 90% coverage of health systems in the US.
Deliver increased access to opt-in business decision-makers directly involved with healthcare purchasing. Xtelligent Healthcare Media’s audience consists of more than 70% Business & Finance Executives and Clinicians who have critical involvement across healthcare technology purchases that are becoming increasingly complex.
Provide highly relevant, customized intent insights on topical interests, content consumption and vendor engagement of healthcare technology buyers at both the account and prospect-level to help marketing and sales teams to convert more opportunities and accelerate deals with better informed, personalized and timely outreach.
TechTarget purchase intent insight is uniquely powerful because of how it is made and how it is delivered to B2B tech marketers and sales professionals. The actionable insights within the Priority Engine platform are achievable because of the depth of original editorial and vendor content spanning thousands of unique IT and business topics across TechTarget’s network of over 150 technology-specific websites and 1,125 channels. As enterprise technology buying teams grow and purchasing becomes more and more complex, we provide the information and resources to help every member of the team to research and make decisions.
Priority Engine for Healthcare helps TechTarget to continue to grow and help its customers succeed in a relevant adjacent market that includes high levels of purchasing complexity and buying dynamics.
“By expanding the amount of permission-based, relevant 1st party purchase intent data our customers have access to and delivering a full suite of marketing, sales and go-to-market services to engage real buyers, we help companies of all sizes achieve better results at scale in this market,” said Michael Cotoia, CEO, TechTarget. “As a leader in coverage of B2B enterprise tech for more than 20 years – combined with working very closely with our almost 3,000 customers – TechTarget has unique visibility into the buying dynamics across every major sector of the market. Our experience positions us well to bring our model to adjacent vertical markets with similar attributes to enterprise B2B tech – long/complex-sales cycles, large purchases, multiple members of the buying team and a strong need for 1st party data to enable marketers and sellers – just as we have done in Healthcare.”
