About this episode
Signal-based demand generation requires tracking the right data points. Nick Zeckets, Chief Fire Starter at Smoke Signals AI, brings expertise from two MarTech exits and building AI-first HubSpot programs. He identifies SEC filings as the most valuable signal for enterprise sales, revealing executive discussions about business risks, projections, and budget allocations. Executive hiring patterns at VP-level and above indicate strategic shifts and fresh budget priorities, while M&A activity creates 18-36 months of organizational change and new problem sets.
