5 KEY GAINS OF AN ABM STRATEGYEXAMPLES


#1 SALES ENBLEMENT (collaboration)

Email Desk DropInternal Assets

Sales needs to be told what’s new, don’t expect them to ask

Same Message


EMAIL – onboarding Launching a new white paper, webinar series, or other large content asset?

Think about rolling this out with ABM and sales enablement. The ABM program is already running, but how does your sales team know about it, or know the value of it?

You Have To Tell Them.


50% of best in class marketers use email

onboarding. Only 1% of under performers do.

• Flow of the campaign • Goals of the campaign • How it will be evaluated

This month’s Attack plan


INTERNAL PROGRAMSMAP Use your MAP to automate actions

• Use journeys in combination with moving leads through, but also in creating tasks for the sales people to do

• Example: Their account score increased by 10 points, so set up a task for them to call and offer the new asset.

#3 ZERO WASTE A New Idea in Marketing – Zero Waste

ONE TO ONE IN REAL TIME

WEBSITE EMAILADS


WASTE… If you are targeting a person, and you place an ad where others see it, that is called waste.

So if you are only wanting to target one person, yet paying to target 10,000 you have a massive amount of waste.

THERE IS A BETTER WAY. An ad in a magazine has a ton of ‘waste’


REAL TIME BIDThe ability to buy one ad for one person, in real time.

This is the power of all modern advertising platforms, and how things such as ‘re-targeting’ work.

The power now is now in our hands to use to target accounts in real time.

An ad placedvia RTB
