  • Ep. 8 - Leverage B2B Community Development to Reach Thought Leadership With Your Core Customers - with Rob Gonzalez
    Aug 12 2026

    A few years into scaling one B2B software company, its cold outreach had become exactly the kind of generic, forgettable email everyone else in the industry was sending. Close rates cratered. Once the team rebuilt outreach around actually being useful to prospects, win rates climbed higher than they'd ever been.

    In today's episode of LEADERS IN B2B MARKETING, host Sammy Gebele sits down with Rob Gonzalez, Co-Founder of Salsify.

    You'll learn:

    1. How Salsify started building its digital DNA, and Rob's major responsibilities as CMO
    2. The crucial role of the right customer for successfully scaling your product-market fit
    3. Top advice on how to create and test valuable content efficiently
    4. The evolution of B2B marketing, and why quality over quantity ultimately wins
    5. How Salsify defines its own product category and builds thought leadership through community development
