Description

Episode #240:

Peter Dibbern, Chief Marketing Officer at COSMO CONSULT, explains why customer understanding shapes every part of a modern GTM system. He details how SaaS models require deeper, continuous customer relationships. He discusses how data supports but never replaces real conversations and emphasizes that trust grows through honest stories, not polished marketing claims.

“The customers are a lot better informed today, so we have to create solutions together in a dialogue. If you respect the customer, you will get insights from them, and those will be the best sellers of your product for future prospects.” – Peter Dibbern

This episode moves beyond the usual alignment conversation and shows why a modern GTM system cannot function without a living connection to the customer. Peter highlights how customer insight becomes the signal that guides every strategic decision and why authentic stories carry more influence than any crafted message. It reinforces the idea that customer truth is not an input but the operating force that shapes the entire GTM engine.
