Creating a new category and disrupting an existing one require very different strategies. One asks buyers to understand something unfamiliar, while the other asks them to leave behind what they already know. So how should companies approach each challenge?

Drawing from years of marketing leadership across startups and multibillion-dollar companies, Steve Keifer sees category creation and disruption as difficult in different ways. Creating a new category requires educating the market, building awareness, and earning credibility before traditional demand generation can work, while disruption means overcoming entrenched habits with a product that is meaningfully better than what buyers already use. Steve recommends investing in thought leadership, early adopters, customer proof, and consultative selling while making sure leadership, sales, product, and customer success are aligned. The real advantage comes from understanding which market challenge you face and building the go-to-market strategy around it.

Amanda Dyson, an enterprise B2B SaaS marketing leader with deep experience in pipeline generation, says the answer is an authentic voice supported by a clear point of view. Instead of using AI to manufacture finished thought leadership, she recommends using it for ideation, then bringing people back in to add judgment, originality, and trust.

Eric Williamson is the Chief Marketing Officer at CallMiner, an AI-powered customer experience automation platform that analyzes customer interactions to uncover insights and improve service performance. In his role, he oversees global marketing across brand, demand generation, events, and growth strategy. Eric brings more than 20 years of experience across B2B technology, consumer marketing, agency leadership, and content strategy.

AI is changing the economics of customer service, but the real shift is not just replacing people with bots. Enterprise teams are being forced to rethink what they automate, what they build internally, and where outside platforms can still create value. When everyone can access powerful AI tools, how do companies decide what is worth building themselves?

As a B2B technology marketing leader with expertise in AI, automation, brand strategy, and enterprise growth, Eric Williamson explains that the answer starts with intelligence. Companies need to understand which customer interactions are best suited for automation before they deploy AI agents at scale. Eric emphasizes that many teams underestimate the long-term cost of building AI tools in-house, especially when those tools need to match the depth, reliability, and insight of established platforms. The stronger approach is to start small, identify the right use cases, create a seamless handoff between AI and humans, and use customer interaction data to guide automation decisions.

Matt previously held marketing leadership roles at Chef Software and LeanData and brings a people-first perspective shaped by his background in theater and community building.

Marketing to technical audiences exposes weak assumptions quickly. These buyers rarely respond to vague promises or generic campaigns. So how can marketers create marketing systems that earn trust, generate demand, and keep improving?

Matt Lyman, a B2B marketing leader with expertise in demand generation, technical audiences, paid media, and community-led growth, explains that the answer starts with understanding the human behind every technical buying decision. Instead of treating messaging as a static brand exercise, teams should treat it like a hypothesis: test it, listen to feedback, and adjust based on what the market reveals. Matt emphasizes the importance of tailoring messages to executives and practitioners, choosing events based on audience fit, watching leading indicators before pipeline slips, and using AI to accelerate work without replacing human strategy. The result is a more focused marketing engine built around precision, context, and continuous learning.
