"A strong ABM vendor will also have different methods for measuring attribution since not all businesses are alike, and marketers love seeing attribution models so they can measure the success of their marketing efforts and ROI." - Ruth Juni @Demandbase zcu.io/utPV

"For better engagement, ABM programs should focus on multiple pieces of personalized content. Display ads are complementary, and serve as just a foot in the door to reaching your target accounts." - Tyler Heuple @triblio zcu.io/2RUD

"Salesforce recently published the eighth edition of its “State of Marketing” report, and statistics indicated 31% of B2B marketers still find it challenging to obtain a unified view of customer data." - Krystle Vermes @KoMarketing zcu.io/qX4N

"With robust intent data, account-based marketers can optimize their strategy by layering intent on top of the account list to understand which accounts are currently in-market further down the funnel." - Andrew Mahr @triblio zcu.io/QdyX

"Stirista, the leader in data-driven performance marketing solutions, released new research showing that 70 percent of B2B digital marketing leaders plan to invest in Account Based Marketing (ABM) technology in 2023." @MarTechSeries zcu.io/t1PB

Make sure you use data-driven insights to select your targets, not anecdotal information from the sales team. Critical to ABM success is having real-time intent, analytics and past conversion data. - Christine Slocumb @Forbes zcu.io/HqB0

"Data needs to be pulled and processed continually and then applied to the ABM list for dynamism. The right intent solution must integrate with ABM tools and efforts in real-time." - Andrew Mahr @triblio zcu.io/MZsE

"Automated ABM efforts that use intent signals, starting at the account list-building stage and progressing through 1:many, 1:few, and 1:1 efforts, will drive a lift in the business’s revenue from marketing." - Andrew Mahr @triblio zcu.io/Hrv8

"ABX enhances every aspect of the buyer experience, throughout the B2B lifecycle, and dramatically out-performs simplistic ABM and traditional demand gen."- Jon Miller @Demandbase zcu.io/vf3a

"A recent study found that virtually 100% of buyers want to self-serve part or all of the buyer journey (up 13% from 2021). That’s major, and speaks to the need for organizations to facilitate self-conducted research." -Jon Miller @cmswire zcu.io/o8Yy

"While targeting “all” accounts is ambitious, you’re better off identifying and targeting accounts that will make the biggest initial impact. This may be a smaller segment of the market, but you can always expand on your strategy." - Tyler Heuple @triblio zcu.io/UZi4

"Account-based marketing isn’t easy. It requires changes to the structure of your marketing and sales teams, gathering and leveraging deep data and insights into your target accounts and prospects, and thinking about content differently." @Forbes zcu.io/QHrE

"ABM is a learning process that never stops. With any strategy that you’re trying to implement, there’s a good possibility that someone else has already done it and figured out all the missteps along the way." - Brad Beutler @Terminus zcu.io/HVla

"As B2B marketers continue to discover the value of creating and delivering content, new research indicates that they are beginning to see measurable success in this area." - Krystle Vermes @KoMarketing zcu.io/zmHq

"B2B sales cycles are notoriously long. ABM helps solve this problem by putting the right messages in front of key decision-makers at target accounts. As a result, ABM opportunities move through the pipeline more quickly." - Pamela Parker @martechismktg zcu.io/H7Cw

"ABM marketers can jump ahead of the competition with account-based insights that give visibility into purchase intent and engagement for both anonymous and registered stakeholders." @triblio zcu.io/Xz0x

"People like to play, so include an experience marketing component when possible and remember that ABM is about creating relationships. I recommend utilizing business-to-human tactics, too." - Gily Netzer @Forbes zcu.io/VvcG

"Deciding if your company needs any marketing software application starts by answering a couple of simple questions. Deciding if your company needs an ABM platform is no exception." @martechismktg zcu.io/vRQ9

"B2B marketing also requires more patience, as nearly 75% of B2B sales to new customers take at least four months to close, and nearly 50% take seven months or longer." - Tom Regan @cmswire zcu.io/a3Yc
