Taking a holistic approach to growth across every stage of the customer journey will not only help you overcome acquisition fatigue, but also uncover new revenue opportunities, transform into a healthier business, and stop customers from leaking out unnecessarily.

The 5-step process for conducting actionable customer research in B2B SaaS

According to CoSchedule, marketers who conduct audience research see 466% more success in marketing than those who don’t.

In this session, we’ll cover a proven 5-step process for gathering useful (and stealable) insights from your audience.

Using data for personalization at scale

The era of personalization at surface level (e.g. Hey {{first_name}}!) has lost all efficacy. We’re collecting more first-party user data now than ever before—clicks, purchases, messages, payments, activation, etc.—so why are we not using it to create more value and utility for our customers?
Personalization doesn’t have to be so hard. In this talk, I’ll share how to use first-party data to identify the right audiences and 10 examples of how to personalize user experiences to reach those audiences with an offer that resonates and (more importantly) converts.

Followed by a live Q&A + fireside chat w/David Abrams
2:00 PM to 3:00 PM
Kristen Bryant from Wistia
Content Strategies that Drive Brand Affinity

Brand affinity is becoming ever more important in a world where markets are increasingly crowded and products are less differentiated. In this session, Kristen will explain how to create a content strategy that focuses on affinity rather than awareness, and why the best route to creating brand advocates is to produce longer form, binge-worthy content.

The traffic to lead doubler™ - how to convert more traffic into leads & demos
