Accelerating the Revenue Impact of Your ABM Program

Watch our video to see why your ABM program isn’t driving as much revenue as it can be

Shifting Your Focus to Optimizing GTM Performance and Revenue Results

If you are already executing ABM campaigns and programs, your focus should shift to how you can optimize GTM performance and revenue results. But, as 60% of SMB and enterprise teams are seeing longer sales cycles, lower deal sizes, greater discounting and higher churn, the focus has turned to scaling ABM.

Teams should be looking at the interactions they are having with new and existing accounts as well as the experiences that are being delivered to human buyers in key accounts. If we are having the wrong interactions it does not matter how much you scale ABM. Teams will still see similar results and end up with accounts going dark, longer sales cycles, lower deal sizes, weaker GRR (retention revenue) and NRR (expansion revenue).

Watch this video to see how a focus on scaling ABM can limit revenue growth!

Call Center Conversation AI Firm Was Challenged with Driving Stage Progression

Uniphore came to Personal ABM because they were building a pipeline of accounts using Demandbase but they were challenged with accounts going dark after initial engagement because there was limited alignment with tier 1 banks they wanted to win.

For example, one of the banks had a huge IT team that developed, integrated, and is now expanding the capabilities of its own AI virtual assistant system (Erica). Awareness and generic “consideration” content and messaging will not move this account forward. Our client needed to show:

  • The gaps in the bank’s current system and how it’s creating challenges in the use cases that our client focuses on: collections, complaints management, and compliance.
  • Their understanding of the bank’s strategic vision, product road map, the desires of the 8 different lines of business and the impact they can have on the bank.
  • Why the bank should outsource vs. spend time and resources on having their internal team build the infrastructure and implement the changes.

Digital Asset Management Firm Continues Growth Journey As Planned

Digizuite came to Personal ABM 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.

Apptricity Wins Largest Deal Sizes Ever with Enterprises Like Verizon

Even though marketing leadership repositioned the company and its solutions and they put an ABM program in place, the company was challenged to break into and win large enterprise accounts. They were challenged to make their new positioning, messaging and content relevant to target accounts, their strategic priorities and the human buyers within those accounts.

By looking at the interactions across the complete buyer’s journey and realigning the firm with its target enterprise customers, Apptricity was able to create a buying vision with some of the largest Fortune companies and government organizations in the world.

A Facility Management Company Wants to Reach $1B Market Share By 2030!

OpenWorks came to Personal ABM because they have the aggressive growth goal of reaching $1B market share by 2030 and despite having an ABM program in place with another firm, they consistently missed quarterly and yearly goals as teams were only engaging facility managers vs. VPs and the C-suite. They were only getting 1 to 3 locations vs. regional and national accounts.

They did not have the right KPIs, processes and content in place to engage VPs, COOs and CFOs that did not put a focus on facility management as it’s only 2%-5% of the total budget. They also failed to identify their true ICP – organizations like food manufacturers, healthcare manufacturers and 3PLs/4PLs that have different types of locations with their own nuances and cannot afford to take a blanket approach to commercial cleaning as it adds operational, financial and governmental regulatory risk.

Scaling ABM would not have accelerated ABM revenue results.
