The B2B Growth Engine: Master True Marketing ROI from Click to Close

Are your ad campaigns generating leads but not revenue? The long, complex B2B sales cycle makes it nearly impossible to connect an initial ad click to a final, closed-won deal. You're left optimizing for top-of-funnel metrics, pouring money into channels that feel busy but don't actually impact the bottom line.


This playbook details how to build 'The B2B Growth Engine,' a powerful tech stack that connects every marketing touchpoint to actual revenue. By integrating the sales-focused Pipedrive CRM with Dreamdata's advanced B2B attribution platform and Lemlist's outreach data, you'll finally get a complete, unified view of your customer journey. No more guessing—just clear, data-driven insights into what's *really* driving sales.

Integration Logic

  • Dreamdata Pipeline Intelligence

    This integration establishes a one-way data flow from Pipedrive and Lemlist into Dreamdata. Pipedrive sends all CRM data, including contacts, companies, deals (and their stages, values, and status), and activities. This becomes the foundation for pipeline and revenue data in Dreamdata. Simultaneously, Lemlist sends data on all outreach campaigns, including emails sent, opened, clicked, and replied to. Dreamdata then processes and stitches this data together, mapping Lemlist's sales touches and Pipedrive's deal progression to the same user and account journey. The result is a comprehensive, multi-touch attribution model that reveals which Lemlist campaigns are most effective at creating and accelerating Pipedrive deals.
