The Future of GTM: What FY26 Growth Will Really Take

Let’s Call It: The GTM Playbook Has Changed for Good

What worked in 2020? Won’t survive FY26.

We’re now selling into a completely different world—one shaped by AI acceleration, buyer self-sufficiency, and a new generation of decision-makers. If your GTM still hinges on legacy lead gen, static campaigns, and generic sales messaging… it’s not just underperforming. It’s invisible.

What a Winning FY26 GTM Looks Like

Forget the 40-slide GTM deck and top-down push. In FY26, high-performing organisations are embracing GTM as a cross-functional, data-led ecosystem.

Winning strategies now share four key traits:

✅ Digital-first, not digital-onlyBuyers still want to talk to humans—but only when it’s relevant and adds value. Human-led, AI-enhanced is the new sweet spot.

✅ Self-serve at every stageThink ROI calculators, product configurators, chatbot triage, and smart content engines. Modern GTM respects autonomy and makes it easy to buy.

✅ Unified across sales, marketing, and customer successRevenue isn’t a single team’s responsibility anymore. True GTM success requires shared language, handoff rhythm, and consistent messaging.

✅ Enabled by AI—not overwhelmed by itAI isn’t optional anymore. It’s the difference between reactive and predictive GTM. From content personalisation to pipeline prioritisation, it needs to be embedded across every touchpoint.

Enablement: The GTM Growth Multiplier

Here’s what many teams miss: you can’t execute modern GTM without enablement.

Gartner research shows that sales orgs that invest in enablement see 2.6x greater commercial growth. And it’s not just about sales training. Modern enablement includes:

• AI skills and tool adoption

• Cross-functional GTM frameworks

• Messaging mastery for revenue teams

• Real-time adaptability to buyer signals

Enablement turns strategy into action. Without it, your GTM is just a slide deck.
