How ABM tactics
can make your client
portfolio bloom
ABMIs it possible to explain ABM, a complex but rather
by means of a gardening metaphor?
Yes, it is. Just watch us.
popular
marketing strategy,
Imagine a beautiful
flower garden
colourful
Even more
That’s it!
that every flower
is a happy customer
Now
imagine
(and one that buys like a happy customer)
Beautiful sight,
isn’t it?
Well, this is possible
But instead of shovels,
you have
ABM
utensils and —
soil,uh —
ABM
is too.
And just like
is a process,
good gardening
A skilled gardener starts by
selecting the flowers
he wants to grow
In the same way,
you have to select your
desired prospects or clients
Base your choice on:
How much revenue or profits
would a project bring you?
Can you offer something that
others can’t?
Are they compatible with
your organisation?
How strong is your relationship
today?
The attractiviness
of the client for you:
How attractive
you are for the client:
Map it,
if you
have to
sweet
spot
your attractiveness to the client
attractivenessoftheclienttoyou
Next
a gardener has to know
the plant through and through
Time for you to
fully understand
the chosen accounts
Hereyou mainly look for:
Which aspects or changes are important to take into account?
#employees, sector, location, structure etc.
Do you want more volume or more margin?
Where do they want to go in the market?
How do they want to differentiate themselves?
Where your solution can help them to do so.
The marktcontext:
The firmographics:
Your goals:
The strategic goals
of the company:
People who have to carry
out the strategic goals:
Now he knows what his plants
need, our gardener starts
developing the ideal growth mix
Now you have to determine for
every account what value
you can bring.
Connect
Product A
Product B
Product C
Valueproposition A
Valueproposition B
Valueproposition C
Goal B
Goal A
Goal C
their goals to
your offer
Value-propositions are always
the center of your communication
What your account needs
or wants to achieve How your product contributes
Just throwing a bag
of soil over the plant
makes little sense
- or so we think
That’s why you have
to get your message
across, bit by bit.
This is when you
start to plan.
A plan can look like this
Month 1 Month 2 Month 3 Month 4 Month 5 Month 6
Team LinkedIn updates
(Social selling prep)
Assets for sales
Brand awareness campaign
Ongoing LinkedIn sponsoring to relevant profiles
Influencer event
Webinar with influencer + communication
Innovation video 1
(Li, video, e-mail)
Innovation video 2
(Li, video, e-mail)
Newsletter 1 Newsletter 2
Finance & Strategy profiles
Strategy profiles
Finance profiles
Extra tips
Share the plan with the whole team for long-term success,
trust us.
Use shared contacts to your advantage,
ask them to introduce you to the
person you want to reach.
Don’t choke up on overambitious plans:
start small and scale when possible
Closing note:
a good gardener regularly checks the growth of
his plants and changes the mix if necessary.
So:
observe and adjust when needed
There,
client portfolio
this is your journey to a
beautiful
Not a simple feat...
But it’s worth it
One of our clients
tried the approach
His top customers became
even more satisfied
And where the relationship
was withering, it now bloomed
Want to start with
Send us a message.
but feel like you could
use some help?
ABM
You wouldn’t mind calling in
the experts for your garden
right? ;)
