Hey there! We've got our next webinar coming up on ABM & Customer Marketing! Register here: https://bit.ly/45rkiZa
Shahin chats with Steve Watt, Director of Market Insights and Seismic Social Selling expert, about how to incorporate social selling into your ABM strategy.
The episode covers the following:
- Defining social selling
- Social selling and its importance to ABM
- The common mistakes people make
- Where to start with social selling
Steve believes that many sales and marketing mindsets, strategies, metrics and tactics are beyond their “best before date”, and that B2B leaders need to reject many of the approaches that have gone unquestioned for too long.
He does whatever he can to challenge sales, marketing, and enablement leaders to cast aside old mindsets and approaches to social and build something entirely different and much more impactful.

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.
The agency works with regional sales and marketing teams to identify priority accounts, develop coordinated campaigns and turn commercial opportunities into measurable growth.
