A cybersecurity expert found an intelligence-inspired hack to revive B2B webinars
“Webinars didn’t stop working. Marketers stopped treating them like intelligence. Most teams pick topics internally, then ‘promote harder’ when attendance is weak. We flipped it: start with audience signals, bring in voices the market already trusts, then run a repeatable, LinkedIn-first distribution motion. That’s how webinars become a brand engine again.” — Asaf Katz, CEO, LinkedOtter (Grow With Events)
Asaf Katz, a cybersecurity educator and creator, launched Signal-to-Show Up, a B2B webinar marketing system delivered through Grow With Events. It uses public LinkedIn engagement signals to pick topics and credible guests, then runs a repeatable, LinkedIn-first distribution motion. Past events have seen 100+ registrations, and in some cases reached several hundreds. Results vary.

Asaf Katz, cybersecurity educator and creator, today announced Grow With Events, a B2B webinar marketing program designed to help CEOs and brand-first marketing teams turn real market attention into repeatable webinar turnout.

Webinars are not “dead,” Katz says. But the default playbook is.

“Hope isn’t a distribution strategy.”

Most teams treat a webinar like a calendar invite: pick a topic internally, book the most available speaker, publish a page, then try to “push it” at the last minute.

That’s what makes the failure so expensive. Even a terrible webinar takes real work: coordinating calendars, writing copy, building registration pages, creating slides, setting up email reminders, doing dry runs, handling speakers, and running the live session. When it underperforms, teams don’t just lose results, they lose momentum and appetite to try again. When turnout is weak, they conclude webinars don’t work and abandon a channel that can build trust, shape category perception, and create demand.

“Most teams hope the market shows up,” said Katz. “Hope isn’t a distribution strategy.”

Grow With Events was built after Katz saw outbound performance drop as inboxes and LinkedIn DMs filled with AI-driven personalization. As companies shifted toward content and thought leadership, many tried webinars and got disappointing turnout, often a few dozen registrants, reinforcing the belief that the channel no longer delivers.

“Everyone got ‘personalized’ overnight,” said Katz. “When everything sounds tailored, nothing feels true. Webinars are how you earn trust in public again.”

“Internal brainstorming is not market research.”

Grow With Events is built around what Katz calls Signal-to-Show Up: a LinkedIn-first approach that starts with observable audience behavior and builds the event around what the market is already reacting to.

“Internal brainstorming is not market research,” Katz said. “If buyers aren’t reacting to it publicly, you’re guessing.”

The program’s thesis is simple: if a topic already has real engagement from the right audience, it’s easier to turn that attention into registrations. If it doesn’t, heavy promotion rarely fixes the underlying problem.

“Signal is the difference between a webinar people tolerate and a webinar people want,” Katz said. “We don’t start with what the company wants to say. We start with what the market is already proving it cares about.”

“Speed is part of the strategy.”

Across multiple events, Grow With Events reports results ranging from 100+ registrations to several hundreds, depending on topic, guest, timing, and distribution. Results vary widely by topic, timing, audience scope and execution.

“Timing matters,” Katz said. “If a topic goes cold because approvals take two weeks, you pay for it in turnout. Speed is part of the strategy.”

100+ Registrations Commitment

Grow With Events includes a 100+ Registrations Commitment. If an event falls short, Grow With Events will run up to two additional events at no additional service fee, subject to participation requirements. Registrations are counted as unique sign-ups, measured through the webinar platform and/or LinkedIn event RSVP data. Third-party costs are not included.

“Like any distribution motion, it works best when teams move fast on approvals and keep the target audience broad enough to reach.”

“Every agency claims they can ‘drive awareness,’” Katz said. “We’d rather put a number on the table and be accountable.”

Who it’s for

Grow With Events is built for CEOs and brand-first B2B marketing teams that want a repeatable way to build thought leadership and demand over time, not a one-off webinar that disappears after 48 hours.

“This is built for teams that want to become the place the market learns from,” Katz said. “Not teams that want a one-time spike and then disappear.”

Who it’s not for

Grow With Events is not designed for teams looking for sales tomorrow, a quick lead spike, or one webinar to save the quarter. It’s also not a fit for teams that treat webinars as a one-and-done content asset, or teams that can’t move fast enough to capitalize on a topic while it’s still hot.

“If you want a magic trick, you’ll be disappointed,” Katz said. “This works when you commit to earning attention repeatedly and shipping events while the market still cares.”
