With guests like Jeff Pedowitz (CEO of the Pedowitz Group), we've talked a lot about why 2/3 of ABM Programs fail. In this podcast, Kristina Jaramillo, Eric Gruber and their guest Jess Larkin (one of Okta's top strategic ABM marketers) will talk about the 6 key elements that are missing from most ABM programs:
1. A clear understanding of what ABM is.
2. An ABM strategy that is not just a list of tactical activities and cadences.
3. The right ABM vendors (a partner like Personal ABM)
4. A balanced approach as only 1/3 of ABM programs are executing 1:1, 1:few AND 1:many.
5. An account plan for how sales and marketing teams will prospect, nurture and close tier 1 accounts.
6. Greater relevancy with the human buyers in the accounts that GTM teams want.
