What Is a Go-to-Market Strategy?
A go-to-market (GTM) strategy is the plan for how you reach and win your target customers — who you sell to, how you reach them, and how you convert and keep them. Lead generation is the engine inside it.
Why GTM matters
A great product with a weak go-to-market struggles; a focused GTM turns effort into efficient growth.
It aligns product, marketing, and sales around the same customer and motion.
The pieces of a GTM
A clear ICP and personas, a sharp value proposition, the channels you will use, and the metrics — CAC, LTV, conversion — that tell you it is working.
GTM and lead generation
Lead generation executes the demand side of the GTM — finding and converting the right accounts at scale.
