The most foundational shift I have experienced due to the T2D3 masterclasses is my new ability to step back, holistically assess a company’s situation, and know where to aim their go-to-market strategy in a way that sets them up for success.
I see how everything works together. The masterclasses have exponentially grown my marketing knowledge and allowed me to really feel like a B2B SaaS marketing expert.
I’ve used the T2D3 model to help my clients understand how they fit into the market and what their growth stage means for their goals. It gave me new language to get buy-in from the executive teams to rethink their original direction in favor of efforts proven to be more effective for their products, markets, competition, and capabilities.

Frequently asked questions
Will this program also work for beginners?
Yes. This program complements the book. It's designed for both existing (and aspiring) marketing leaders, founders, and growth teams building B2B SaaS companies.
While an existing foundation of marketing and business knowledge will help you move quicker, beginners can certainly use this program to skill up quickly.
These materials are designed for any go-to-market leader who wants to improve their strategic and managerial toolkit.
Who should (or shouldn't) join the program?
This course is for: B2B SaaS startup founders, executives, investors, and marketing leaders who want to understand and maximize the role that marketing plays in their startup's success.
This course is not for: People looking for marketing gimmicks or short-term growth hacks. The T2D3 Masterclass is about doing things at the right level, in the right order, and understanding that sustainable growth comes from combining strategic patience with tactical impatience.
Is team pricing available? Can I use this course to train my team?
Team pricing is available at a rate of 10% off per seat added, up to 40%. For example, if you buy 3 licenses, you'll get 30% off total price.
As a customer put it, getting everyone to "speak the same language" in your organization can be extremely helpful and useful.
If you've recommended the book to your team, the next logical step could be masterclass purchases.
Please email support@t2d3.pro to purchase multiple licenses at a discount.
How is the program different from the book?
The program compliments the book and builds upon it. If the book is a textbook, the program is a college course. Where the book goes, the course goes deeper and gives you examples, takeaways, and hands on learning.
Why should I get the masterclass and the playbook?
While the playbook can be very helpful for someone with the right background and tools, the masterclass gives you a full understanding of what you're doing, how to do it, and why.
As one of our customers described it, the masterclass helps with the "why and how", whereas the playbook helps with the "when" and the "step by step".
Can I expense this?
Many employers may recognize this course as something to be included in a learning budget. We believe that this is valid, as the course furthers your tactical and strategic marketing skills.
