Account based marketing isn't just another channel or tactic. It's a strategic approach that flips the traditional funnel. Instead of casting a wide net, ABM teams select high-propensity accounts. From there, marketers align revenue teams around orchestrated, personalized, and multi-channel programs tailored to buying groups within those accounts. So, marketing doesn't "throw leads over the wall." In ABM, marketers co-own an account plan with sales or customer success, share a single view of the buying group, and run coordinated touches across channels to amplify engagement.
Is B2B lead generation feeling like a one-sided conversation? You're not the only one who's noticed. Despite access to more channels than ever to connect with leads, a survey by Exclaimer (an email signature software provider) found that 55% of B2B marketers say it's harder to reach customers now than it was five years ago. In fact, 54% cite capturing high-quality leads as their top challenge.
