Talked to 100+ GTM leaders this year 📌 Here's the pattern: 🪜 Rung 1: Manual everything. "We'll automate later." 🪜 Rung 2: Basic Zaps. Breaks constantly. 🪜 Rung 3: Clay workflows. Needs an agency to maintain. 🪜 Rung 4: 12 specialized tools. $42K/year. Nothing integrated. 🪜 Rung 5: Describe what you want. It runs. Most teams think they're on Rung 4. They're actually on Rung 2 with better branding. The jump from 4 → 5 isn't adding another tool. It's removing the ladder entirely. Swipe through to find where you actually are 👉

One thing we see in every scaling GTM org: Reps keep asking the same questions, even when documentation exists. Not because people aren't trained... But because knowledge lives everywhere. - Slack threads - Outdated docs - PM tribal memory - One-off answers in someone’s head - The “only happens sometimes” answers The best enablement content is useless when it's buried.

Your SDRs spend 70% of their time researching leads. Meanwhile, your best opportunities stay buried. The difference between rule-based scoring and AI prioritization? 25% more conversions + 30% better ROI. Rules rank activity. AI predicts conversion. That’s the shift from chasing every lead to focusing on the ones that actually matter. Lead volume doesn’t win deals. Lead intelligence does. The real question isn’t: “How many leads did we generate?” It is: “Did we prioritize the right ones?” 👉 Read the full analysis here- https://lnkd.in/dt3THd92 Hot Take: Rule-based lead scoring is quietly costing B2B teams revenue.

𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝? Pause. ⚠️ More reps won’t fix weak targeting. More sequences won’t fix stale data. More volume won’t fix broken workflows. Outbound doesn’t fail at execution.

We analyzed 100+ B2B SaaS teams… and the results were wild. Most companies are scaling wrong: bloated budgets, weak attribution, and zero clarity on what actually drives pipeline. We turned the findings into a simple breakdown you can steal. Read the study (it’ll change how you plan 2026). https://lnkd.in/dQABfPBa

📈 GTM Intelligence Tip : Track Movement — Not Just Moments A single signal can spark interest. But momentum builds pipeline. Don’t just log “one-off” actions. Watch how intent evolves: ✅ From topic browsing → competitor comparisons ✅ From whitepaper download → pricing page visits ✅ From passive research → active engagement Pattern > point-in-time. When you track movement across stages, you stop reacting — and start anticipating. 📊 That’s how GTM teams stay one step ahead. Try Lead Onion for Free - https://d36.co/1bSTb #intentdata #gtm #sales

Your RevOps problem probably isn't attribution, alignment, or tools. It's data decay. But nobody wants to talk about it because it's not sexy. You don't just wake up to a broken dashboard. It's more like... someone repurposed a field six months ago and you are just noticing it now. We just broke this down in a new blog. Link is in the comments!

We're delighted to share that Jim N. Curry joined the Team Ignite Ventures podcast to talk about rethinking venture capital, building with long-term conviction, and why data is the key to product excellence. 💬 As Jim puts it: “Whether you’re planning to sell in two years or twenty, you’re best served by having a long-term strategy. Even if you don’t deliver on it, the vision creates value.” And on how BuildGroup’s product-first thesis evolved: “I became fascinated by the idea of turning workflow data into smarter products, apps that don’t just guide you, but act for you. That vision has naturally evolved into AI-enabled workflow investing.” 🎧 Listen now: https://lnkd.in/eS8uaj5J
