Why Data is Still The Achilles Heel of B2B Marketing | Trust in Data Remains at Rock-Bottom for Enterprises — Maureen Blandford Explains What Marketers Can Do About It
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Maureen Blandford, Founder of Serendipitas and co-author of the Diginomica Enterprise Data Health Study. Together, they expose one of B2B marketing's most uncomfortable truths: that senior leaders across major enterprises don't actually trust their own data—even when they say they do. Could the data powering your most critical business decisions be far less reliable than anyone is willing to admit out loud?➡️ Maureen draws on nearly twelve years as a B2B tech CMO and frank conversations with eighteen senior practitioners—CEOs, CDOs, and commercial leaders—to unpack the dangerous gap between stated and behavioral trust in enterprise data. She introduces the "verification tax," where organisations are burning 30 to 70% of professional time simply assembling and reconciling data rather than analysing it. They dig into why 94% of organisations still have siloed data despite years of integration projects, why legacy MarTech was never built for strategic business needs, and why vendor-funded research is feeding a narrative that doesn't match reality on the ground. On AI, the findings are stark: vendor surveys claim 93% of organisations plan to deploy autonomous AI agents within two years—yet only 3 of 18 interviewed organisations have anything resembling agentic AI in practice. Maureen also shares what genuine AI readiness requires and, crucially, three things any senior marketer can do this week—with no new budget and no board approval—to start making real, lasting progress.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction to the B2B Data Trust Crisis02:28 - Why Data Became Maureen's Central Obsession04:10 - What the Current Data Narrative Gets Wrong05:37 - Stated Trust vs. Behavioural Trust: The Key Discovery11:26 - The Verification Tax and Its Hidden Cost14:12 - Why MarTech Was Never Built for Strategy15:55 - 94% of Organisations Still Have Siloed Data19:29 - Why Vendor Research Misleads Buyers23:39 - The AI Readiness Gap: 93% vs. Reality29:08 - The Three Types of AI Organisations (and the Most Dangerous One)31:00 - Rays of Sunshine: What's Actually Working34:41 - Three Things You Can Do Starting MondayFollow Maureen Blandford, https://linkedin.com/in/maureenblandford/ https://serendipitas.comIf you care about making B2B marketing more meaningful, useful, and memorable, this conversation is for you.

The Four Pillars of Success in The Agentic AI Era: Governance, Judgement, Taste and Orchestration | With Angela Tangas of Oliver
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Angela Tangas, CEO of Oliver, part of the Brandtech Group—the original pioneers of the in-house agency model. Together, they tackle one of the most urgent questions facing B2B marketing leaders right now: how do you move beyond AI experimentation and drive genuine, scalable transformation? And is the operating model you choose as important as the technology itself?➡️ Angela draws on her experience working with eight of the world's ten largest advertisers across forty-eight countries to deliver a frank, practical, and genuinely eye-opening conversation. She explains why 2025 became the year of "pilot purgatory" for so many organisations—and what separates the brands that broke through from those that didn't. She unpacks the layered pressures on B2B marketing teams today, from longer deal cycles and more decision-makers to the commoditisation of AI-generated content, and makes the case for why volume without effectiveness is a dead end. Angela also tackles the environmental footprint of AI adoption—an issue she argues deserves far more attention—and sets out a clear, actionable framework for marketing leaders who want to build momentum this quarter. From governance and change management to agentic workflows and the future of the resource mix, this episode is packed with real-world insight.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction to AI-Led Marketing Transformation02:09 - How Oliver and Brandtech Group Work04:05 - What's Driving Urgency Behind AI Adoption in B2B07:09 - The Capability Gap in B2B Marketing Teams08:15 - Where Marketing Teams Are Focusing Their AI Efforts10:37 - Efficiency vs. Effectiveness: Are Teams Getting It Right?14:02 - The In-House Agency Model Explained18:26 - How Oliver's Role Has Evolved with AI20:24 - Managing the Resource Mix: Internal Teams, Agencies & AI23:11 - The Environmental Cost of AI in Marketing25:59 - What's Holding Organisations Back from Real Transformation29:37 - What Marketing Operations Will Look Like in 2–3 Years32:39 - Where Marketing Leaders Should Start This QuarterFollow Angela Tangas, linkedin.com/in/angelatangas oliver.agencyIf you care about making B2B marketing more meaningful, useful, and memorable, this conversation is for you.

Is PE killing the B2B ROI imperative? | Nick Eades on what PE-backed marketing teaches the rest of B2B
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Nick Eades, Chief Strategy Officer at Freemarket and one of B2B marketing's most experienced senior leaders, having served as CMO five times across PE-backed, publicly quoted, and VC-funded businesses at companies including IBM, Dell, BT, and Fujitsu. Together, they explore one of the most consequential shifts reshaping the marketing profession: the rise of private equity ownership in B2B — and what it demands of marketers operating inside it. Could the high-pressure, outcome-driven discipline of PE-backed marketing actually be making all of B2B better?➡️ Nick holds nothing back. He dismantles the cult of MQLs — sharing real-world cases where marketing leaders were measuring leads that never converted to revenue — and argues that closed-won SQLs sourced by the GTM function is the only metric that truly counts. He introduces his operating mantra of "evidence builds confidence," explains why he talks about reputation and positioning rather than brand, and breaks down what a genuine GTM engine looks like in practice: daily standups, zero ego, AI-powered tech stacks, and full sales-marketing alignment. He also speaks candidly about the personal demands of PE culture and how to manage your own capacity without burning out. If you're a marketer whose organisation has been acquired, is at risk of acquisition, or simply wants to sharpen your commercial instincts, this conversation will challenge how you think about your role and what it's really there to deliver.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction: PE and B2B Marketing 02:09 - Nick Eades: Background and Career 03:13 - How PE Transformed the B2B Landscape 06:06 - Buy and Build: The SaaS Era and Cheap Capital 08:08 - What PE Owners Actually Expect 12:09 - Marketing Inside a PE-Backed Business 14:25 - Why MQLs Don't Matter (And What Does) 17:03 - Building a GTM Engine That Drives SQLs 18:15 - The CMO Role in PE: Myth vs. Reality 22:02 - Riding Two Horses: Brand vs. Demand in PE 25:14 - Evidence Builds Confidence: Metrics That Matter 28:16 - Personal Wellbeing and Capacity in PE 32:18 - GTM as a Silo Buster 36:11 - The Death of ROI as a Standalone Metric 36:53 - Future-Proofing Your Career for a PE WorldFollow Nick Eadeshttps://linkedin.com/in/nickeades/https://freemarket.com/If you care about making B2B marketing more meaningful, useful, and memorable, this conversation is for you.

Chaos is B2B's problem. Coherence is the answer | Why B2B marketers need to fix their operating model, with Alastair Hussain of TMP
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Alastair Hussain, Chief Strategy Officer at TMP (The Marketing Practice), a specialist B2B marketing agency. Together, they confront one of the most pressing realities in B2B marketing today: the chaos most marketers are experiencing isn't a streak of bad luck—it's the symptom of operating models that have fundamentally broken down. Is coherence the cure, and what does it actually take to build it from the inside out?➡️ Alastair draws on TMP's Cost of Chaos Report—research spanning over a thousand B2B marketers and tech buyers—to map out the "chaos cascade": how macro forces like geopolitical instability, economic uncertainty, and rapid technological change filter down into fragmented teams, stalled deals, and burned-out marketers. He argues that the instinct to move faster or pile on more technology doesn't fix chaos—it accelerates it. The real answer is coherence: aligning brand, messaging, product, and strategy so every part of the marketing function pulls in the same direction. Along the way, they explore why product has become marketing's most disconnected discipline, how cognitive fluency underpins buyer trust, and why CMOs need to take back control of the strategic conversation rather than waiting to be handed objectives. Whether you're leading a stretched team or questioning the value of your marketing function, this episode delivers both the diagnosis and a clear direction forward.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction: The Chaos Facing B2B Marketers02:12 - What Is the Chaos Cascade?05:30 - The Human and Commercial Cost of Chaos09:00 - Why Faster and More Tech Makes Things Worse13:15 - Defining Coherence: What It Actually Means17:00 - The CMO as Chief Market Officer19:45 - Why Product Is the Most Disconnected Area22:20 - Making the Business Case for Coherence24:00 - 97% of Buyers Notice Vendor Coherence26:30 - Cognitive Fluency and Buyer Trust30:00 - Buyer-Side Barriers: Decision Makers, Messaging, and Trust33:45 - Realistic Expectations for CMOs Under Pressure36:00 - Where Coherence Breaks Down in Practice38:00 - Advice for Overwhelmed Marketing LeadersFollow Alastair Hussain,https://linkedin.com/in/alastairhussain/https://tmpb2b.comIf you care about making B2B marketing more meaningful, useful, and memorable, this conversation is for you.

Is fractional the future — or a warning sign? | Skip Fidura on what the rise of the fractional CMO really tells us about B2B marketing
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Skip Fidura, Fractional CMO, Non-Executive Director, and Board Advisor with over 20 years of experience across B2B and B2C marketing on the client, agency, and provider sides. The fractional CMO model is having a moment—but is it a real structural shift in marketing leadership, or just a buzzword that's been marketered up? And what does its rapid rise reveal about how organizations truly value marketing?➡️ Skip has been working fractionally since before it was fashionable, and he doesn't hold back. He breaks down the real distinctions between a fractional CMO, a consultant, and a contractor—and why getting that wrong can cost organizations dearly. He explores the cost and structural forces driving the fractional trend, from cash-strapped scale-ups to founders seeking an exit strategy. Skip also addresses the harder truths: how marketing's long-standing failure to speak the language of finance has made it easier for businesses to sideline strategic marketing in favor of cheaper, more piecemeal solutions. He shares how trust is built (and lost) when you're only present part-time, and offers a grounded take on whether this model is a genuine step forward—or a warning sign for the profession. If you're weighing up a move to fractional, hiring one, or simply trying to understand where senior B2B marketing leadership is headed, this is essential listening.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction to the Fractional CMO Trend02:13 - Defining the Fractional CMO Role05:00 - Fractional vs. Consultant vs. Contractor07:10 - Why the Term "Fractional" Has Exploded09:00 - How Skip Got Into Fractional Work10:30 - Cost and Structural Drivers Behind the Model13:35 - Marketing's Place in the Revenue Function18:20 - The Fractional CMO in Unstable or Transitioning Orgs21:55 - Marketing's Failure to Speak the Language of Finance25:00 - Is a Little Marketing Better Than No Marketing?28:00 - How Fractional CMOs Build Trust31:45 - The Gig Economy and the Fractional Lifestyle34:45 - Is the Fractional Model Here to Stay?Follow Skip Fidura,linkedin.com/in/skipfidura If you care about making B2B marketing more meaningful, useful, and memorable, this conversation is for you.

The Advocacy Gap: The huge missed opportunity of employee voices in B2B campaigns
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Robyn Hartley, Managing Director at Paper Kite Media. Drawing on a rigorous analysis of B2B Marketing Awards entries, they expose the uncomfortable truth behind employee advocacy: most brands are deploying it as content distribution, not genuine advocacy. And the data suggests they're missing a significant commercial opportunity as a result. Is your advocacy program building real trust—or just adding noise?➡️ Robyn and Joel explore why LinkedIn dominates employee advocacy (and why that concentration carries risk), why 70% of campaigns are triggered by brand moments rather than deployed always-on, and why measurement still stops at impressions even in commercially rigorous campaigns. They make the case for "inside-out" sequencing—activating employees internally before any external spend—and discuss how thought leader advocacy is increasingly powering ABM and demand gen strategies, not just brand activity. Robyn's perspective is clear: great advocacy isn't about scripted posts. It's about empowering your team's real experts to build genuine trust with buyers over time. This episode will challenge how you think about your people as a marketing channel.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction: The Promise and Reality of Employee Advocacy01:30 - Meet Robyn Hartley, Managing Director at Paper Kite Media04:30 - Defining Employee Thought Leaders vs. Employee Amplifiers06:00 - The Data: Only 14% of Award Entries Use Employee Advocacy10:00 - LinkedIn's Total Dominance: Strength or Structural Risk?13:30 - Why LinkedIn Works for B2B (And Where the Risk Lies)17:00 - Employee Advocacy Beyond Brand: ABM and Demand Gen20:00 - The Brand Moment Trigger: Episodic vs. Always-On Advocacy25:00 - Inside-Out Sequencing: Employees as the First Media Channel29:00 - The Commercial Measurement Gap: Why Reach Isn't Enough33:00 - CPM Equivalents: A Creative Workaround or a Misleading Metric?37:00 - Sales and Marketing Convergence Through Employee Advocacy41:00 - Where Employee Advocacy Is Headed and How to Stand OutFollow Robyn Hartley,https://linkedin.com/in/robynhartley/https://paperkitemedia.co.ukIf you care about making B2B marketing more meaningful, useful, and memorable, this conversation is for you.

Trust: the antidote to machine-gunned AI slop | Why AI's content explosion is putting humanity at the forefront, with Phil Treagus-Evans
In this episode of Trust and Influence in B2B Marketing, Joel Harrison sits down with Phil Treagus-Evans, Co-founder and CEO at Giraffe Social. Phil discusses his 2025 book, "Human First Marketing," which provides a framework for putting people back at the center of marketing strategy during a time of AI-generated content saturation. They explore why marketing has drifted away from human connection and how to rebuild trust in a cynical B2B landscape.💬 Can your brand survive the "AI slop" era by being more human, or will you get lost in the machine-gunned noise?➡️Phil argues that the trust deficit in marketing stems from an obsession with data-driven optimization that treats customers like spreadsheets rather than real people. He breaks down the three essential levers of human-first marketing—Audience, Team, and Personal Brand—showing how leveraging employee advocacy and authentic leadership can outperform any corporate facade. Phil also shares why the AI revolution actually makes humanity a "superpower" and a rare, valuable competitive edge for those willing to ditch the lazy templates for genuine community engagement.

About Trust & Influence in B2B
I’m Joel Harrison, founder of B2B Marketing.net (formerly B2B Marketing magazine) Propolis and the B2B Marketing Awards. It’s been my mission for the past 21 years to recognise, celebrate and evangelise for the amazing profession that is B2B marketing, which has evolved beyond that recognition in that time.In this podcast, I’ll be exploring what I believe is the biggest challenge facing B2B marketers today: Trust. Buyers have always been cynical, hard to reach and even harder to convince, and increasingly expect to be self-directed in their research. In other words, they only want to engage with you on their terms. As if that wasn't bad enough, media and content channels are fragmented whilst AI is opening the floodgates to a tidalwave of content of questionable quality and veracity. It all adds up to a crisis of trust in B2B. In this podcast, I'll be interviewing innovative and inspirational marketers in the front line of addressing this challenge, providing deep insights into the
