What is a B2B go-to-market strategy and how does it differ from a business plan?
A B2B go-to-market strategy is the revenue plan for one specific product or market segment, covering how you create pipeline, close deals, and retain customers. It includes positioning, pricing, sales process, marketing channels, and success metrics, not the broader operational vision of a business plan. The Starr Conspiracy's enterprise-ready B2B GTM strategy framework organizes these decisions into five core pillars that align teams under board scrutiny. When you blur GTM and business plan, sales targets one ICP while marketing chases another, making pipeline unpredictable.
