This week, our host Ian Truscott chats with B2B marketing leader Lisa Bonnano, and then he and Robert tackle the topic of vibe coding killing SaaS software over a cocktail.
Lisa Bonanno is a revenue and customer-focused marketing executive with 20+ years of experience optimizing and scaling global pipeline engines from inquiry to advocacy for B2B SaaS businesses.
Ian dives into Lisa’s marketing leadership experience, what drew her to marketing as a profession, her views on getting a marketing education, what we can learn from B2C, and:
-
What is on Lisa’s rider when she’s considering a new gig
-
Where she starts when starting a new gig
-
The advice she gives to young marketers looking to follow in her footsteps
-
What she would chuck into our Rockstar CMO Swimming Pool - our portal to marketing hell
-
The tune that gets her marketing mojo working
After catching up with Lisa, Ian joins Robert Rose in the virtual bar, The Rose & Rockstar, for a chat about whether business users getting access to AI-generated code, or vide coding, is going to kill SaaS software.
If you have any comments or thoughts on this topic, we would love to hear them!
Enjoy!
