Planning Your Account-Based Marketing Efforts
ABOUT THIS COURSE

Account-based marketing is complex. That’s one of the reasons it’s so effective. But if you don’t take the time to plan your campaigns… well, things can fall apart fast.

You need ample time up front to research and identify your best-fit accounts, so you can design campaigns that speak accurately to the pain points and needs of key decision-makers at those specific organizations.

In Planning Your Account-Based Marketing Efforts, Samantha Stone with the Marketing Advisory Network takes a practical approach to ABM. She shows you what you need to consider when you select accounts to target with your campaigns. You’ll see how to build account profiles and how to map contacts to target accounts. (This is a constant headache if you don’t do it right.) You’ll also discover the value of breaking your list of accounts into tiers so you’re dedicating the right kind of resources to your best prospects.

Finally, you’ll bring it altogether in a pilot program that ensures your initial efforts are working… and worth scaling.
