|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
- Tag all assets (landing pages, emails, ads) with campaign ID
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **UTM Parameter Structure** (critical for attribution)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
utm_source={channel} // linkedin, google, facebook
|
||||||
|
utm_medium={type} // cpc, display, email, organic
|
||||||
|
utm_campaign={campaign-id} // q2-2025-linkedin-abm-enterprise
|
||||||
|
utm_content={variant} // ad-variant-a, email-1
|
||||||
|
utm_term={keyword} // [for paid search only]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Lead Scoring Configuration**

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
- Channel quality: LinkedIn +5, Google Search +10, Organic +15
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
- First-touch: Awareness credit
|
||||||
|
- Multi-touch: Full journey credit
|
||||||
|
- Build custom report: Marketing → Reports → Attribution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1.4 International Expansion Considerations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**EU Market Entry**:
|
||||||
|
- GDPR compliance: Double opt-in for email, explicit consent tracking in HubSpot
|
||||||
|
- Localization: Translate landing pages, ads, emails (DE, FR, ES priority)
|
||||||
|
- Payment: Display prices in EUR
|
||||||
|
- Partnerships: Local co-marketing partners for credibility
|
||||||
|
- Paid channels: LinkedIn most effective for B2B EU, Google Ads second
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**US/Canada Market Entry**:
|
||||||
|
- Messaging: Direct, ROI-focused, less formal than EU
|
||||||
|
- Paid channels: Google Ads + LinkedIn equal priority
|
||||||
|
- Partnerships: Industry associations, review sites (G2, Capterra)
|
||||||
|
- Content: Case studies with $ impact, not just features
|
||||||
|
- Sales alignment: Faster sales cycles, need immediate lead follow-up
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Budget Allocation** (Series A recommended):
|
||||||
|
- EU: 40% LinkedIn, 25% Google, 20% SEO, 15% Partnerships
|
||||||
|
- US/CA: 35% Google, 30% LinkedIn, 20% SEO, 15% Partnerships

||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Targeting Best Practices**:
|
||||||
|
- **Company Size**: 50-5000 employees (Series A sweet spot)
|
||||||
|
- **Job Titles**: Director+, VP+, C-level (use LinkedIn's precise targeting)
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Creative Frameworks**:
|
||||||
|
1. **Thought Leadership** - Industry insights, no product pitch
|
||||||
|
2. **Social Proof** - Customer logos, testimonials, case study snippets
|
||||||
|
3. **Problem-Solution** - Pain point + your solution in 3 seconds
|

|
||||||
|
- **Landing Pages**: Lower conversion, higher quality, use for BOFU/demo requests

||||||
|

||||||
|

|
4. Scale winners, kill losers fast (2-week test minimum)

||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Keyword Tiers**:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tier 1: High-Intent BOFU** (target first)
|
||||||
|
- "best [product category]"
|
||||||
|
- "[product category] for [use case]"
|
||||||
|
- "[competitor] alternative"
|
||||||
|
- Volume: 100-1k/mo, Difficulty: Medium, Intent: Commercial
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tier 2: Solution-Aware MOFU**
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
- "[problem] solution"
|
||||||
|
- "[use case] tools"

I'm [Your Name] at [YourBrand] - we help [ICP] with [value prop].

## 6. Experimentation Framework
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 6.1 A/B Testing Prioritization (ICE Score)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Formula**: ICE = (Impact × Confidence × Ease) ÷ 3
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Rate each factor 1-10:
|
||||||
|
- **Impact**: How much will this move the needle?
|
||||||
|
- **Confidence**: How sure are you it will work?
|
||||||
|
- **Ease**: How easy is it to implement?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Example Tests** (sorted by ICE score):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Test | Impact | Confidence | Ease | ICE | Priority |
|
||||||
|
|------|--------|------------|------|-----|----------|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 6.2 Test Design & Execution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Test Template**:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Hypothesis: [Adding a case study carousel to the pricing page will increase demo requests by 20% because users need social proof before committing]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Metric: [Demo requests from /pricing page]
|
||||||
|
Sample Size: [1000 visitors per variant]
|
||||||
|
Duration: [2 weeks or until significance]
|
||||||
|
Success Criteria: [20% lift, 95% confidence]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Variant A (Control): [Current pricing page]
|
||||||
|
Variant B (Treatment): [Pricing page + case study carousel]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Tools: [HubSpot A/B test, or Google Optimize]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Statistical Significance**:
|
||||||
|
- Minimum: 95% confidence, 1000 visitors/variant
|
||||||
|
- Use calculator: Optimizely Sample Size Calculator
|
||||||
|
- Don't stop tests early (false positives)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Test Velocity** (Series A target):
|
||||||
|
- 4-6 tests/month across channels
|
||||||
|
- 70% win rate not realistic (aim for 30-40%)
|
||||||
|
- Document losers (learnings matter)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 6.3 Common Experiments
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Landing Page Tests**:
|
||||||
|
- Headline variations (problem-focused vs. solution-focused)
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|

## 7. Handoff Protocols
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 7.1 MQL → SQL Handoff (Marketing → Sales)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**SQL Definition Criteria** (customize for your ICP):
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Required:
|
||||||
|
✅ Job title: Director+ (or Budget Authority confirmed)
|
||||||
|
✅ Company size: 50-5000 employees
|
||||||
|
✅ Budget: $10k+ annual (or Qualified Need confirmed)
|
||||||
|
✅ Timeline: Buying within 90 days
|
||||||
|
✅ Engagement: Demo requested OR High intent action
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Optional:
|
||||||
|
✅ Industry: Target verticals
|
||||||
|
✅ Geography: US/CA/EU
|
||||||
|
✅ Use case: Matches product capabilities
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**HubSpot Workflow**:
|
||||||
|
1. Lead reaches MQL threshold (lead score >75)
|
||||||
|
2. Trigger: Automated email to SDR
|
||||||
|
3. SDR qualification call (BANT: Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline)
|
||||||
|
4. If qualified → Mark as SQL, assign to AE
|
||||||
|
5. If not qualified → Recycle to nurture, adjust lead score
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**SLA** (Service Level Agreement):
|
||||||
|
- SDR responds to MQL: 4 hours
|
||||||
|
- AE books demo with SQL: 24 hours
|
||||||
|
- First demo: Within 3 business days of SQL status
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 7.2 SQL → Opportunity Handoff (Sales → RevOps)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Opportunity Creation**:
|
||||||
|
- AE creates opportunity in HubSpot after first demo
|
||||||
|
- Required fields: Company, Deal value, Close date, Stage
|
||||||
|
- Pipeline stages: Discovery → Demo → Proposal → Negotiation → Closed Won/Lost
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Marketing Support Post-SQL**:
|
||||||
|
- Retargeting ads to target accounts (ABM)
|
||||||
|
- Send case studies, ROI calculator
|
||||||
|
- Invite to customer webinar
|
||||||
|
- Executive briefing (for Enterprise deals)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 7.3 Lost Opportunity Handoff (Sales → Marketing)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Recycle to Nurture**:
|
||||||
|
- Reason: No budget, bad timing, wrong fit
|
||||||
|
- Action: Move to "Nurture" list in HubSpot
|
||||||
|
- Sequence: Quarterly check-in emails, invite to webinars
|
||||||
|
- Re-engage: After 6-12 months, SDR re-qualification
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Closed Lost Reasons** (track in HubSpot):
|
||||||
|
- Price too high
|
||||||
|
- Missing features
|
||||||
|
- Chose competitor
|
||||||
|
- No budget
|
||||||
|
- Bad timing
|
||||||
|
- Champion left company
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Use lost reasons to inform**:
|
||||||
|
- Product roadmap
|
||||||
|
- Pricing changes
|
||||||
|
- Competitive positioning
|
||||||
|
- Messaging adjustments
|
||||||
