The GTM Standards

Proven standards that recurring revenue teams can use to achieve durable revenue growth.

Bowtie 1

01

A Standardized Data Model.

The market is in need of a standardized Data Model that supports recurring revenue businesses and supports the vision of a fully interconnected GTM.

02

A Uniform Customer-Centric Methodology. 

Recurring revenue comes from recurring impact; therefore, Customer Impact must be at the center of all GTM activities (Sales, Marketing, CS) and consistent throughout the entire customer journey.

03

A Common Language. 

Marketing, Sales, and CS currently use different terms, and different metrics. A common language streamlines and unites these disparate functions across the data model and across platforms, so that everything connects.

Why standards are needed

Hear directly from the Foundational Partners why they felt the need to bring these standards to the industry.

The GTM Principles

We believe the ultimate Goal of any GTM team in a recurring revenue business is essentially the same: Create growth from acquisition, retention and expansion, at a cost that is affordable, while delivering a quality customer experience (defined as the right impact to the right customers).

01

This Goal can only be achieved when GTM is run as one cohesive team, rather than separate functions of Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success departments.

02

It requires a uniform approach to GTM, rather than treating efforts as separate one-off initiatives (such as a lead gen campaign, product launch, or sales strategy).

03

The result of effective GTM should be a frictionless customer experience and increased recurring revenue.
