B2B Marketers Connect Signals to Decisions

At LinkedIn's B2Believe event, a panel featuring SAS, HubSpot, and Dentsu discussed how B2B organizations are turning customer signals into actionable decisions. The panel, moderated by Kyle Poyar, explored the need for precise signal definition, the rise of the dark funnel, and the role of AI in joining qualitative and quantitative data. Key takeaways include HubSpot's two-axis demand mapping (fit and intent), SAS's investment in brand and 'share of prompts', and the importance of speed-to-lead and multichannel engagement. SAS's new measurement framework focuses on reach, relationships, and revenue, using LinkedIn's clean room data to show that brand exposure increases deal size and velocity. Dentsu emphasized moving beyond proxies while acknowledging their necessity. The consensus is that the signal is already there, but the system to connect data, teams, and decisions is the missing piece.

• SAS found that deals exposed to brand and thought leadership activity were 24% larger and closed 13% faster, based on LinkedIn's clean room data.
• HubSpot now maps demand on two axes: fit and intent, and uses LLMs to identify signals from chat conversations.
• SAS rebuilt its measurement framework around three pillars: reach, relationships, and revenue.
