Align Sales & Marketing to Turn Leads Into Revenue
Is your sales and marketing team pulling in different directions? I'm leading a workshop at HARDI Focus Conference on aligning sales and marketing across your customer buying journey.

I'll share practical, real-world ways to bring your sales and marketing teams together through better messaging, collaboration, and content - so they stop working in silos and start working as one. Going to HARDI Focus? Connect with me here on LinkedIn and drop your questions ahead of time - I'll make sure we work through them together. 🗓 Date: May 12–14, 2026 📍 Clearwater, FL 🎟 Registeration: https://lnkd.in/ea8ap2R9 #B2Bmarketing #SalesEnablement #marketing #sales #teamwork
