GTMnow shares insight around the go-to-market strategies responsible for explosive company growth. GTMnow highlights the strategies, along with the stories from the top 1% of GTM executives, VCs, and founders behind these strategies and companies.<\/em><\/p>\n ZoomInfo<\/a> just made a bold move: they changed their Nasdaq ticker from $ZI to $GTM.<\/p>\n From our lens, this is a brilliant move and signals something far bigger than a rebrand.<\/p>\n The market also took notice. ZoomInfo shares jumped 7.4% to $10.04 on the day of the announcement!<\/p>\n It\u2019s a bet and a signal that go-to-market isn\u2019t just a function, it\u2019s the system every company needs to win.<\/p>\n To really understand what\u2019s happening, let\u2019s zoom out.<\/p>\n Shipping product is easier than ever. AI has eaten chunks of the stack. Cursor, Poolside, Create, GitHub Copilot \u2013 tools like these are turning weeks of engineering work into prompts.<\/p>\n Even Sam Altman said Cursor might be the most exciting app-layer product he\u2019s seen because it can basically write code for you.<\/p>\n What that means for founders is simple: the technical moat is shrinking.<\/p>\n So if the playing field is leveling on the build side, what\u2019s left? Distribution.<\/p>\n Go-to-market becomes your edge.<\/p>\n This is the wave ZoomInfo is riding. And it\u2019s the same one we\u2019ve been building around at GTMfund for years.<\/p>\n For years, ZoomInfo was known as the best B2B data company in the world. \u201cData\u201d was their identity. But they\u2019ve transformed from just B2B data to a broader scope, a full platform for go-to-market operators. CEO Henry Shuck shares a quick video on this here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
