Getting closer to revenue

Most of your buyers aren’t ready to buy right now. And if you’re only focused on the people who are, you won’t hit your revenue goals. Jason Widup, VP of Marketing at Metadata, will get into why it’s your job to not just capture demand, but to create it too. Because doing this right leads to revenue.

Opening keynote: Stop pitching your product and start marketing your point of view

Your buyers have more choices than ever. And only focusing on your product doesn’t make it any easier on them. April Dunford, Founder of Ambient Strategy and Author of Obviously Awesome, will give you the full rundown on why you need to develop a point of view narrative. So you can give your prospects and customers a better (and more clear) way to think about their choices in a crowded market.

How-to session: Getting to revenue faster with experimentation

B2B marketers know they need to experiment more with their paid campaigns. But they don’t always know where (or how) to get started. Silvio Perez, Head of Ad Operations at Metadata, will share his approach to campaign experimentation so you can get to revenue faster.

10:15am - 10:45am
How-to session: Planning for demand and revenue targets

If you’re the type of marketer who thinks your job is done after you hit your MQL goals, then this how-to session is NOT for you. Jason Widup, VP of Marketing at Metadata, will give you everything you need (except his Pierce Brosnan-like hair) to start planning for demand and revenue. And if you don’t know what a demand model is, you have no reason to not attend this. Like we almost made it a requirement.

Jason Widup

VP of Marketing, Metadata.io

10:45am - 11:15am
How-to session: Activating your intent data

You bought some expensive intent data, you’re stuck importing .CSV files and you’re still not sure what to do with it all. The good news is you’re not alone. Megan Boone, Director of Demand Generation at ThoughtSpot, will share how she helped ThoughtSpot get off the .CSV hamster wheel and activate their intent data (like actually).

Megan Boone

Director of Demand Generation, ThoughtSpot

10:45am - 11:15am
How-to session: Running LinkedIn Conversation Ads that generate revenue

We’re going back to the LinkedIn Conversation Ads well one last time. The same well that helped generate $7.5M in pipeline and $1.5M in revenue for Metadata. Jason Widup, VP of Marketing at Metadata, will give away his entire playbook for running LinkedIn Conversation Ads. With real examples for you to start using tomorrow.

Jason Widup

VP of Marketing, Metadata.io

11:15am - 12:00pm
Keynote: Using your brand to drive demand

Two names in B2B marketing who don’t really need an intro. And two names who know a thing or twelve about building legit brands. From finding your brand’s point of view to telling your brand story to creating unique brand experiences - you don’t want to miss this one.

Dave Gerhardt

Chief Brand Officer, Drift

Kyle Lacy

SVP of Marketing, Seismic

Afternoon

12:00pm - 12:30pm
A little "pep talk" from everyone's favorite sales rep

In classic Metadata fashion - we don’t have all the details finalized yet for Corporate Bro. But know that we’re scripting it right now and it’s going to be very funny. Or else we wouldn’t be doing it.

Corporate Bro

12:30pm - 1:15pm
Panel discussion: Using content as the new demand strategy

They say Rome wasn’t built in a day. And neither are B2B content engines. We gathered three of the most legit content marketers we know to share what they’ve learned about building content engines from scratch. The ones that actually generate revenue. From building your brand to growing your audience to figuring out if you’re on the right track.

From evaluating past performance to building new audiences to avoiding costly mistakes before you launch your next campaign.

Closing keynote: Making revenue focused bets like a VC

Investing in companies and running campaign experiments have a whole lot more in common than you might think. 90% of the time, you’re going to fail. But the key is knowing when to take big, revenue-focused risks where you will succeed and the return is worth it. Learn from two of the biggest names in the experimentation game. This is going to be a good one.

The advertising platform to rule them all!
Metadata has been the most efficient platform for managing LinkedIn and Google ads all in one place. I can easily manage audiences, ads, creatives, offers, and more. The budget grouping allows me to control how much spend to allocate by campaigns, geos, and more.
