๐Ÿ”ฅ Fresh content ๐Ÿ”ฅ

On the PMA platform, we covered the following:

๐Ÿ’ญ Are you involved in GTM in your organization?

Whatever your contribution to Go-to-Market, we want to hear from you!

With this yearโ€™s State of Go-to-Market survey, weโ€™re doing things differently. Thereโ€™s no one team that makes up a GTM strategy, which means a comprehensive Go-to-Market report canโ€™t focus on just one team either.

With this report we're focusing the spotlight on you, the people who make Go-to-Market happen, to ensure your peers understand your responsibilities and challenges in the GTM process. Because when you're all speaking the same language you'll be able to Go-to-Market better, together.
