You can't measure ABM success with traditional demand-gen metrics. To elevate your account-based marketing (ABM), you need to implement the right metrics. This will allow you to accurately gauge how well your ABM efforts are driving success. Here's the blueprint to align your metrics with strategic goals: New Executives Contacted: Track how many new executives your ABM initiatives connect with. Engagement should be meaningful and personalised, more than just a marketing-qualified lead. Target Stakeholders Engaged: Measure the frequency of engagement from key target account stakeholders. Are they responding to your campaigns and joining your webinars? Meeting Frequency: Regular, strategic meetings with current clients indicate high engagement. If stakeholders reach out with questions, your ABM strategy is working. Calls with Decision-Makers: Secure more calls with key decision-makers, increasing relationship-building and the chances of conversion. Customer Advocacy: Monitor your executives turning into advocates who share your content and refer your services. NPS Scores: Use Net Promoter Scores and satisfaction scores to gauge the alignment of sales and marketing efforts. Deal Size: Growing deal sizes point to solid ABM strategies. Share of Wallet: Track how your campaigns drive out competitors, increasing your stake. Sales Velocity: Assess how your campaigns are accelerating pipeline movement. Using these KPIs will help create holistic ABM strategies that deeply influence revenue growth, relationships, and reputation. #B2BMarketing #DemandGeneration #SaaSMarketing #ABM #GTM #ABMEffectiveness #ABMKPIs #StrategicABM #ExecutiveEngagement #StakeholderActivation #CustomerAdvocacy #SalesVelocityAcceleration

Digizuite came to Personal ABM - Account-Based Marketers wanting stronger pipeline growth with their existing #ABM program to fuel 4X revenue growth over a 4-year period. However, after reviewing the business, we saw that the real issues didn’t lie with the pipeline as the firm faced heavy discounting pressures from competitors like Bynder and they continually lost enterprise deals to trusted legacy platforms like Sitecore and Adobe. #GTM teams focused on marketing departmental pain points just like their competitors, so they were not able to drive engagement across the organization. They failed to teach to differentiate and show target accounts how Bynder, legacy platforms and other competitors do not integrate into the enterprise organization even though Forrester and Gartner reports show that most DAMS are under-utilized and are not leveraged outside of marketing. They didn’t show gaps and impacts across marketing, advertising, PR, eCommerce, sales, operations, customer service, CX, account management, finance and business leadership teams. By changing how they think about their business, how they GTM, how they engage future and existing customers, how they communicate their value prop, Digizuite was able to drive revenue results as shown in the image below. They needed to change their interactions and the account experiences they deliver. When you schedule a free ABM strategy session, you can see why your ABM programs may be under-performing when it comes to revenue growth. You'll see opportunities to drive greater stage progression, improve enterprise win rates, increase deal sizes and create stronger ARR/GRR/NRR growth.

The number of CMOs responsible for sales enablement has doubled over the past year 📈 According to a recent study conducted in collaboration with LXA (formerly MarTech Alliance), the number of CMOs responsible for sales enablement has doubled over the past year. 🎯 This trend reflects a shift in sales enablement accountability, with more organisations assigning ownership to the marketing function. 📢 The study reveals that this shift presents a promising sign for overcoming operational siloes between business functions, as they align their goals and unlock data-driven decision-making in a digital-first world. To learn more about this trend and its implications, check out the article below. 👇 Link: https://lnkd.in/euW99mTv #salesenablement #marketing #cmo #marketingstrategy

Very well explained!! ABM is evolving from just a set of tactics into the core GTM strategy, especially as more big and small organizations adapt to this approach. The distinction between Growth ABM and Enterprise ABM is spot on, and businesses must understand the complexities and benefits of each. I completely agree that we’re entering an era where Account-Based GTM is becoming essential, not just an option. It will be interesting to see how large and small organizations navigate the challenges and opportunities ahead.

ABM adoption → is rapidly expanding throughout the entire GTM. Account-Based principles will overpower demand gen in 5 years. ABM ≠ paid display ads to a list generated by 3rd party intent. ABM ≠ auto populating an account’s logo and name on a landing page. ABM ≠ a GTM motion that is *only* for accounts with the highest $$$ potential. ABM → is the underlying GTM strategy. Whether you like it or not, we’re now in the era of Account-Based GTM. 1. Demand Gen / Integrated Marketing are transitioning into leveraging the Growth ABM (Tier 1, 2, 3) deployment model. 2. Orgs above $1B ARR are also using the Enterprise ABM (1:1, 1:Few) deployment model, on TOP of their Growth ABM, which checks out given their resources available and larger ACV (think +$1M)... smaller orgs too where it makes sense. 3. The degree of difficulty implementing a holistic Account-Based GTM strategy across various organization sizes varies greatly… ↳ Larger orgs = high complexity, deeply specialized GTM functional teams, process-driven, a bunch of red tape, and more people leading to more enablement needs. ↳ Smaller orgs = greater agility, but far less budget and resources, often need an agency to help properly structure the data infrastructure. Fewer people so enablement can move faster, but things break faster too, with less resources to fix - and often higher expectations. TAKEAWAY The account-based awakening is a movement that’s just getting started. Account-Based GTM is the future of B2B.
