Defining the MQL
Featured guest
Jamie Feigenbaum
Demand Generation Manager, RFPIO Inc.
“Having a strong MQL definition — one that’s enough to get a sales rep’s attention — is really important. Otherwise, you’re closing the door on a lot of opportunities.”
Jamie Feigenbaum was pursuing a master’s degree in sociology (urban studies) when she first discovered her passion for marketing. Today, in her role as a demand generation manager for RFPIO, she leverages her unique skillset to straddle both big-picture strategy work and granular analyses.
On today’s episode, Jamie joins host Amanda McGuckin Hager to share how and why even the most exciting short-term marketing wins sometimes don’t translate to results — and what to do about it.
