How to Create an Inbound Lead Engine Your Sales Team Doesn't Hate

Dixa's inbound lead generation process—better than the rest.

This week's guest is Jennifer Montague, Director of Marketing at Dixa (the Europe-based customer service platform that just raised their $105m series C round).

Dixa has been absolutely killing it in recent years, in part thanks to their incredible marketing team.

In this episode, we dig into Dixa's marketing inbound lead generation process, and learn a thing or two about setting up a process that your sales team don't secretly hate you for.

Expect to learn:

  • What content you should create
  • How to think about persona segmentation
  • Whether you should gate or ungate content (we get a clear argument to add to the debate)
  • Which leads, when, and how to hand them over to your sales team

Hope you enjoy the episode.
