Alignment, Engagement, Revenue 💰

As marketers, we're well aware of the friction that maybe, possibly, sometimes exists between Sales and Marketing (but you didn't hear that from me).

If you're keen on avoiding that friction, you'll want to check out the RevGrowth Virtual Summit event from our friends at Drift.

It's about Sales-Marketing alignment to the nth degree—by moving beyond account-based marketing to account-based engagement.

The event is on April 6, so it's the perfect warmup for the MarketingProfs B2B Forum, April 7-8.

Check it out!
