Our very first Flip My Funnel ABM conference was such a huge success! More than 300 of the best and brightest B2B marketing and sales leaders joined us in Atlanta for #FlipMyFunnel. We sold out the event and we received rave reviews. The content of our sessions, the stellar lineup of speakers, and our awesome attendees all helped to rock the event. We even trended above Kim Kardashian on Twitter by scoring more than 2,000 tweets mentioning #FlipMyFunnel in one day!
So what is #FlipMyFunnel, really?
Well, it’s an entirely new way to look at the sales and marketing funnel.
It starts by identifying your ideal customer, or account, then expanding your outreach by engaging your prospects on the channels which they are actively using such as social, mobile, display and video. Then, after your prospects become customers, you continue to actively market to them with the goal of creating customer advocates.
Your best fit customers deserve your best efforts through their entire customer journey and flipping the funnel helps you do that in the most efficient way.
It’s our mission to enable B2B marketers with account-based marketing techniques to reach and engage targeted accounts across all stages of the buyer’s journey.
When we came up with idea to host a conference all about flipping the traditional funnel on its head, we knew a few things:
- The market was hungry for a new way to do business-to-business (B2B) sales and marketing
- This event wasn’t about us, it was about the idea of flipping the funnel
- It couldn’t be vendor oriented or a product pitch
We wanted the #FlipMyFunnel event to be about something which could ultimately shape our industry for the future. And it worked.

Now, we’re taking our show on the road.
I’m delighted and privileged to announce that FlipMyFunnel will be hitting the road! At our Atlanta event, we heard from our conference attendees that they wanted more events outside of San Francisco or New York City. So we picked three more cities where we could get innovative marketers to come together for a one-day event.
In December, we will be heading to Boston and Chicago, and then on to Austin in January. With a power-packed lineup of account-based marketing speakers, you won’t want to miss #FlipMyFunnel.
I promise this event won’t a vendor pitch or product showcase. #FlipMyFunnel is hosted in partnership with ABM thought leaders from SiriusDecisions, Terminus, Engagio, and G2Crowd so we can learn together.
