How You Can Start Small
Outline your target
accounts, then what
do you want to say,
through-out the
funnel.
Even starting with one
new content when
they shift position is
great to start.
Decided how, when
and who will visit the
inbox? Sales,
marketing?

Focus on thewho? And thewhy you will come
• ABM is meant to focus on the who first, then the “why you”
• Madison Logic Platform and Marketo ABM Essentials features are two
promoters of holistic ABM approaches to pull all of your data into one place and
then action on that data
• Let technology be your tool. Let it work for you.

ContentShifts– Concept of ChangingYour Messages
Why do we want to
change
messaging?
• Freshness, Relevancy,
• It’s all about engagement.
Engagement leads to education
and higher lead and account
scoring, and helps sales be
operationally ready to talk.

• After key content is downloaded—
complimentary content
• After the discovery call is booked—
emails, content and ads about
who your company is
• After a webinar or event registration
• If your intent data shows a change

Tactics to Use When SwitchingGears
• Use your CRM, ABM Tech (like ML) and MAP to help you identify stage changes
• Marketo Engage or even ABM Essentials.
• Build out a smart campaign to ring fence people and accounts who are
moving from one stage another.
• Then use that segmented audience to transition into new content via email,
display and even lead gen.
• ML Journey Acceleration™ helps me automatically and dynamically do some
heavy lifting.

Editor's Notes

  • #5 Focused Investments Track Record of Delivery Innovation
  • #10 How do you deliver value? We think the answer for marketing boils down to three simple rules: Listen, Learn and Engage. To win, you need to change your paradigm: Start listening to each individual customer across every touchpoint, Your marketing channels: web, mobile, ads, social email, SMS, events, etc. All your organizational touchpoints: Sales touches, Services touches, Operations like billing or fulfillment, how people are actually using your products Business technologies across your organization that provide insights about your customers Imagine what it would be like to have all of that data in a single hub – where you could have a 360 degree view of your customer. 2. Learn what they want, and When you look at all your customer information, what picture does it paint about your customers? What topics do they care about? What channels do they use? How often do they want to hear from you? 3. Engage them wherever they are, whenever they are ready, with the perfect message for that moment. This is relatively easy to do with 10 customers. But to scale the formula to thousands or even millions, across individual touchpoints and over each customer’s lifetime…  you have to have technology. Luckily, technology has evolved to help you keep up with expectations. You have to transform your processes and even your culture to start with the individual customer in mind. And while transformation is a not always easy, you can minimize the complexity with a platform approach to customer engagement that seamlessly brings together the right customer data and touchpoints and content.
