Shahin Hoda chats with Brett Chester, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Deputy, about how marketers can leverage the novel concept of customer-led growth to create powerful content pieces and drive better engagement.

Brett starts by defining this approach and talks extensively about why and how marketers should bring in customer success stories, customer quotes and testimonials in their go-to-market content pieces.

Brett also shares his views on humanising the sales cycle and emphasises the importance of having a solid product marketing function. Brett concludes the discussion by advising marketers to take inspiration from B2C marketing trends to innovate in the B2B space.

APAC's B2B Growth Podcast

APAC's B2B Growth Podcast (formerly Growth Colony) is a bi-weekly interview show unpacking trends, busting myths and delivering insights B2B marketing and sales leaders across Asia-Pacific can put to work today.

Each episode, host Shahin Hoda sits down with a marketing leader, sales leader, founder or operator who has a real point of view, not a generic take.

Guests bring specific stories from inside their own companies: what worked, what failed and what they'd do differently.

We cover what's actually driving B2B growth in the region: account-based marketing built for APAC rather than adapted from a US or UK playbook, sales and marketing alignment, and founder and operator commentary from people doing the work, not just talking about it.

If you're a B2B marketing or sales leader in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore or anywhere else in Asia-Pacific trying to build pipeline from strategic accounts, this show is for you.

Hosted by Shahin Hoda, founder of xGrowth. xGrowth is an account-based marketing and go-to-market agency helping global B2B technology companies improve customer acquisition, build qualified pipeline and win strategic accounts across APAC.
