Join our vibrant community of B2B sales and marketing professionals

Bloom logo - no border

Bloom is an informal, invitation only, group of B2B marketers and sales people. The aim is to open our minds, share our ideas, allow new and untested ideas to sprout and mature, discuss challenges that may be holding us back in a safe environment, supported by your peers, free of sales pitches.

PANDEMIC UPDATE:

As you'd imagine we are cancelling all face-2-face Bloom meetings during this time. We'd like to continue to run free-of-charge virtual Bloom get togethers, for as many of us in the industry as possible, both in and out of work. So please register your interest and we will be in touch with dates.

WHO IS IT FOR? 

Australian B2B marketers and sales people, typically from mid-sized firms.

WHY HAVE WE SET UP BLOOM? 

There is so little support out there for heads of B2B marketing and sales, especially If you don’t work for the big enterprise scale firms with large budgets and multiple agencies at their beck and call and a posse of specialists in their team. 

WHAT'S THE FORMAT?  

Informal get-togethers, each session will have a core topic nominated by the group themselves. We’ll have a facilitated workshop discussion around the topic for around 45 minutes, and on occasion depending on the nature of the topic, we may have an invited specialist speaker. The aim is to foster an engaging and interesting forum and provide a supportive network of peers to provide ideas, input and advice.

The events are held in the early evening, usually around 5.30pm and run until approximately 7pm. There is ample time for networking with your fellow members and a chance to have a glass of wine and some tapas.

HOW OFTEN? 

In person, once every 8-12 weeks. We’ll also share content on an ongoing basis between the meet ups.

COST 

The group membership is free for invited members, we’ll just ask for a small fee to cover any venue cost and refreshments (about $50 per meeting). Invoices will be issued for "B2B Marketing & Sales Professional Development Workshops" when you register for each session.
