Let’s play a game….
#B2BMX
1) Iron Mountain has our ABM strategy mastered
2) Every B2B business should be doing ABM
3) ABM means different things to different businesses
Identify the LIE
#B2BMX
1) I get an average of 26 sales/marketing emails a DAY…on average, 24 (92%) mention ABM
2) Every marketing tech tool should be evaluated in consideration of how it can be leveraged in support of your ABM strategy
3) If you don’t have an ABM strategy at this point, you’re behind the curve
Identify the LIE
#B2BMX
1) B2B sales people get ABM
2) B2B sales people think all marketing (and sales) is ABM
3) Iron Mountain’s B2B sales people barely understand what marketing does, let alone what ABM is.
Identify the LIE
#B2BMX
1) Consulting and Martech vendors often promote ABM as a hot new strategy which requires incremental investment
2) Iron Mountain leadership believes ABM is a hot new strategy which requires incremental investment
3) Iron Mountain’s marketers treat ABM as a method of segmentation and messaging rather than a new or incremental way of marketing
Identify the LIE
