What is GTM Engineering in B2B Sales w/ Michel Lieben, CEO at ColdIQ

Hello and welcome back to the Collin Cadmus Podcast. Today I’m joined by Michel Lieben.

Michel received his bachelor’s degree in economics in 2016 and then started his career as a Marketing Specialist and Growth Marketer for 4 years before starting his most recent and current venture, where he serves today as the Founder & CEO of ColdIQ, an agency that helps B2B companies scale their outbound prospecting activities.

Michel is a certified expert with modern growth tools like Clay, Instantly, and Smartlead, and has built outbound systems for over 100 B2B sales organizations. So I’m particularly excited to get his thoughts on all that’s changing in B2B sales and to find out specifically what he thinks is working and what isn’t in the world of outbound prospecting.
