Written for senior executives, this new book delivers strategic context for changing buyer behaviors and B2B revenue growth in a digital world

Online PR News � 13-August-2018 � Business is strong for many companiesbut will it last?

Complex sales pipelines are increasingly elongated, forecasting is inaccurate, and deals are stagnating all despite growing investment in sales training and marketing technology.

Senior executive teams sense that while things are OK now, theyre not sure which sales and marketing levers to pull to accelerate and sustain growth, or when and how to pull those levers. Theyre right to worry.

The solution is simple, but hard. Its about shifting their mindset from the inside looking out, to a more customer-centric point of view. Successful companies will replace selling TO customers with buyer empathy which enables them to understand and adapt to the changes in the B2B buyer journey and complex sales.

Content marketing or digital advertising arent enough. Neither is technology, nor is social media. Yet, despite a profusion of books that offer tactical tips for successfully implementing digital sales and marketing, few resources exist to help senior executives associate buyer-driven disruption with necessary organizational change and playbooks for success. The cycle of confusion perpetuates itself, as companies continue to invest in the latest MarTech and sales training without realizing desired outcomes.

In Common Sense Revenue Growth authors John McTique and Ed Marsh provide the strategic context, the organizational roadmap and an execution framework to help CEOs and executive leadership teams build a revenue growth organization that is responsive to the key factor that will determine success meeting or exceeding buyer expectations.

Ive spent years studying why some companies drive amazing revenue growth results with digital marketing and technology, while others invest without reaching their goals comments John McTigue. When contemporary tools and tactics are plugged in to simply replace traditional approaches, it just doesnt work. Companies that succeed are those in which senior leadership creates a culture that solves for customers.

Ed Marsh agrees. Teams, tools and tactics all have to be aligned around an uncompromising focus on rapidly evolving buyer behaviors and expectations. John and I have seen what works, and what doesnt. The differentiator is always the top-level commitment to change.

Published by Riptide Business Press, Common Sense Revenue Growth moves readers quickly through understanding evolving buying behaviors and sales methodologies. It explores the key organizational changes that will enable some companies to outperform over the next decade, and it tackles the role of technology with an independent perspective.

If youve ever wanted to review proposed budgets and investments with the assurance of knowing what will work for complex B2B sales in tomorrows markets, this book is for you. It will help you design and implement a revenue growth structure that embraces changing buyer habits and expectations.

Common Sense Revenue Growth is available in printed and ereader editions at Amazon.com. The audiobook version will be released later in 2018.
