In fact, <strong>87% of marketers<\/strong> measuring ROI say that ABM outperforms other marketing investments.

Consequently, you proactively pursue them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">According to Bev Burgess, Senior VP at ITSMA (Information Technology Services Marketing Association) and ABM pioneer, this model is revolutionizing marketing and delivering great results by its focus on three different things &#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1) Reputation\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM improves the reputation a company has with its customer. What is marketing? Building shareholder values by building strong brands, so we can charge more than the competitor for the same thing year after year among customers who love us.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>2) <strong>Relationships<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM can help you build relationships and keep relationships \u2018warm\u2019. Think about selling a company, the relationships the company has make an enormous impact on the price that the company is valued at.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>3) <strong>Revenue<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM increases revenue and also opens doors to long-term revenue opportunities from a single company.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Benefits_Most_From_ABM\"><\/span><strong>Who Benefits Most From ABM?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM primarily benefits B2B companies and organizations that are focused on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesmate.io\/blog\/enterprise-sales-guide\/\">enterprise sales<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM requires account-level personalization and therefore, costs more to implement. However, it ensures clarity on your return of investment and prevents you from spending time or resources on projects with no clear business value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">In the words of Joe Chernov, VP of Marketing at InsightSquared, \u201cABM aspires to be \u2018zero waste\u2019 marketing. It\u2019s a model that targets only the companies and contacts that are likely to buy your product and that sales are looking to close\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27179\" src=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IDMK_blogImages_3-1.jpg\" alt=\"ABM\" width=\"902\" height=\"502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IDMK_blogImages_3-1.jpg 902w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IDMK_blogImages_3-1-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IDMK_blogImages_3-1-768x427.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IDMK_blogImages_3-1-900x502.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 902px) 100vw, 902px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/sales-marketing-alignment-increases-revenue-infographic\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.6667px;\">Source<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_ABM\"><\/span><strong>Advantages of ABM<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>1. Highly Personalized, Builds Relationships. <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Marketing campaigns that cater to a large audience cannot ensure that each member of the audience feels like their individual needs are met. On the other hand, ABM allows you to personalize your content and efforts to a small group of people. This also helps build a relationship with the client from the very beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Shortens Sales Cycles &amp; Eliminates Waste of Marketing Efforts. <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM ensures there is a focus on the right prospects. This helps prevent sales teams from spending a majority of their time grooming leads from the initial outreach that may or may not convert. They can thus use that time on an account that most likely will, thereby shortening the time between the initial pitch and the closing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Clear, Higher ROI &amp; Ease of Measuring Campaign Effectiveness.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM ensures you know exactly where your marketing funds are going, and what you stand to gain at the end of the campaign. You\u2019re not gambling and investing in a campaign and hoping for the best. A 2014 ITSMA survey by Julie Schwartz showed that nearly all B2B solution providers that measure account-based marketing (ABM) ROI find that ABM delivers higher ROI than other marketing initiatives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Analyzing your campaign\u2019s effectiveness is easier because you\u2019re only focusing on a small set of target accounts as opposed to a large set of metrics.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Alignment of Sales and Marketing. <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">ABM naturally helps align Sales and Marketing teams. That&#8217;s because when a marketer is running an ABM campaign, they\u2019re thinking with a Sales mindset &#8211; accounts, methods to build a relationship with an influencer\/decision-maker, and generating revenue.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Key_Steps_of_Any_ABM_Process\"><\/span><strong>The Key Steps of Any ABM Process <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>1. Discover and Identify Your Target Accounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Who is your ideal client? What industry? What size are the companies? Which tools do they use? What do they spend on? Who are the decision-makers and influencers?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><em>Research is KEY<\/em><\/strong>. This also requires a collaborative effort between Marketing and Sales to arrive at your ideal clients and organizational-level personas.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Engage Your Targets With Personalized Campaigns And Content<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">The reality is, the clients probably don\u2019t care about your company as much as you\u2019d like them to. But they want things that can add value to their own, address pain points or solve a problem they\u2019re facing. Your content here is your bait and how you promote your content is key. You have to truly engage your leads through the right channels. At <a href=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/\">Outgrow<\/a> we use a mix of well-researched quality blogs, interactive quizzes, and calculators to do the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-27176\" src=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1-3.jpg\" alt=\"ABM\" width=\"388\" height=\"291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1-3.jpg 388w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/1-3-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 388px) 100vw, 388px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartbugmedia.com\/blog\/mapping-your-content-to-the-buyers-journey\" rel=\"nofollow\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Educational Content<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Your company\u2019s marketing content (informative blogs, webinars, infographics) can play an important role in garnering interest from the accounts you are targeting. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Two ways to do this is &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; By addressing their pain points in your content.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; By recognizing your target account in your content. When you share or write about ideas they have established expertise in and recognize the same, it opens up doors to discussions. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">How? <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Here is an example &#8211;<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Say you\u2019re targeting a Social Commerce company X to do business with your SaaS company Y, you could write about Social Commerce, mention in it how X is revolutionizing the social commerce space and how your product can benefit the companies in the same space.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Not only does the X feel recognized, but they also know about what exactly you do and how you can contribute. In the best case scenario, they engage with your content and give you the opportunity to start a discussion!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Event Marketing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Getting face-to-face with decision-makers of your target accounts speeds up your sales cycle. Roadshows, Networking Events, and plugging into Industry Conferences with booths\/stalls could be great ways to do this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">According to Melissa Macatuno, Marketing Manager, DiscoverOrg as mentioned on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizzabo.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Bizzabo<\/a>, <em>&#8220;With ABM, event marketers can now invite the right people with decision-making power and attract them with topics and speakers that resonate.&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">According to a 2016 report by <a href=\"https:\/\/atneventstaffing.com\/experiential-marketing-stats-2018\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">EventMarketer<\/a> as published in Bizzabo, 80% of attendees said that live demonstrations and free samples significantly help define their purchasing decision and 98% of users feel more inclined to purchase after attending an activation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-52223 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/event-marketing-new-300x166.jpg\" alt=\"event-marketing\" width=\"850\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/event-marketing-new-300x166.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/event-marketing-new-1024x566.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/event-marketing-new-768x425.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/event-marketing-new.jpg 1213w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Source<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Social Media<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Not only does social media provide information on our target accounts &amp; companies, but it\u2019s also a great platform to interact and engage with decision-makers and influencers of the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Social media interactions can set the stage for a more personalized engagement later in the sales cycle. Platforms like LinkedIn provide the option to send in a Direct Message, and share, like &amp; comment on your connections\u2019 posts. Make use of these features! Share your clients\u2019 informative posts, leave insightful and positive comments that spark a discussion, send in a Like. Not only does it make the client feel good, but it also makes them warm up to conversation which you can eventually begin via Messages!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">You could also make use of social media for ABM by getting targeted content in front of your key accounts. You can do this by running micro-targeted ads on either LinkedIn or Facebook. These ads can be lead to landing pages that are personalized for those particular accounts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. Measure Results<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">It is important to ensure you measure and optimize the results of your ABM campaign thoroughly by asking the right questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Have you successfully increased the number of decision-makers\/influencers at your target company? How much revenue were you able to generate? What content or which aspects of your campaign are working better?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">So if you\u2019re a B2B organization still following the traditional approach to marketing, it might be time to upgrade to an ABM approach and increase your ROI!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">What are your thoughts on the same?
