At 45% the largest group of ABMers are at stage 3 of their account selection process They are more advanced here than in any other aspect of ABM This means they have selected scored and segmented their accounts and are delivering small scale ABM Andy Bacon lead advisor for B2B Marketing’s ABM Headstart programme On average ABM practitioners are at stage 2 of their data and insight collation but in reality most are either stuck at stage one (auditing) or have leapfrogged to stage three (delivering ABM) Either way this area requires a lot of investment in terms of time resource and in some cases cost Yet data problem exists independent of ABM For many years we have invited data into our organisations at a quicker rate than we could process or properly analyse This means the information we have is messy in duplicate incomplete and so vastABM is a great catalystto make improvements On average most ABMers are at stage 2 of their data and insight delivery that’s because the two largest groups are either side with 34% at stage 1 (where they are auditing their existing data) and 33% at stage 3 (delivering small scale ABM through the use of centralised data) Andy Bacon lead advisor for B2B Marketing’s ABM Headstart programme Technology is a wonderful tool for ABM’s delivery Although the early stages ABM can be carried out almost entirely independent of tech it’s prudent to scope the opportunities tech vendors provide and how others are deploying them The largest group (43%) are at stage 1 of their ABM technology development That means they’re simply scoping their existing tech and their needs This is both unsurprising and wise given that most ABM practitioners are in the early stages of their programme unless you’re running onetomany (programmatic) buying new tech isn’t advisable until you’ve delivered results David De Smedt European marketing and communications manager DS Smith Rushing into programme and content delivery before you’ve properly selected and analysed your accounts is money down the drain because of course you need to understand your audience in detail in order to create personalised outputs for them Yet that doesn’t mean you have to wait for months of analysis before you take action Our survey shows that ABM practitioners are at stage one of their programme and content delivery That means while marketing output may be in sympathy with ABM it’s not in adherence with ABM’s defined processes Simply put most aren’t actually deliver ABM campaigns just yet David Cotterill marketing director Europe Conduent.
