b2b marketing strategy deck
A B2B marketing strategy deck is a structured slide presentation that documents a company’s go-to-market (GTM) choices—who you target, what you promise, how you win, and how you measure success. It aligns executives, marketing, sales, and product on one plan that can be executed and revisited quarterly.
Full Definition
A B2B marketing strategy deck is a decision document, packaged as slides, that captures the core GTM strategy for an enterprise or product line. It typically covers ICP (ideal customer profile), segmentation, positioning and messaging, competitive context, channel and campaign plan, budget and resourcing, and the KPIs used to track pipeline and revenue impact. In practice, the deck becomes the single source of truth used to secure buy-in, guide execution, and prevent teams from running disconnected campaigns. Bret Starr, Founder & CEO of The Starr Conspiracy, frames it as “a strategy artifact that turns opinions into documented decisions—and documented decisions into repeatable execution.” Last verified: 2026-02-01.
