Editor's Notes
- #2 - Introduce yourself, tell story of getting hired by Sangram, had lots of experience in marketing, but was new to ABM, so I’ve had to learn a lot, I’m just like you. - Going to share how Terminus has built an ABM program with Terminus at the center
- #3 With Terminus, We have at least 5 campaigns always on running. We are always running a pre-targeting (which is awareness to cold accounts), lead-to-account nurture, and then 3-4 campaigns for the stage of our sales pipeline. I’m going to share with you our always on campaigns and an example of my first highly targeted ABM campaign.
- #5 - Our SDR team plays a key role in driving pipeline for our team. We use a variety of tools to identify accounts in our ICP and once selected, we immediately drop those accounts into a “Pre-targeting campaign” OurSDRs then begin by completing the account profile with contacts aligned to our target personas. What’s great about Terminus is that we are able to begin getting in front of our folks at our target accounts with our message before an email goes out. Our SDRs reach out with cadences that are personalized by persona. KPI – Demand gen and SDRs are both held accountable for creating pipeline. We even have ”allbound” which are opportunities created from a combo of marketing and SDR efforts. We celebrate with a song that you heard walking up.

- #7 First starting running “Pre-Targeting” campaigns on Terminus, we used branded ads. Improved with a message that is aligned with what the SDRs’ message. Better engagement with this ad and heard from SDRs that people get it better.
