ABM is core to growth, but common shortcuts are slowing results.

With 73% of respondents indicating that launching or optimizing ABM is a key initiative this year, strong partnership between marketing and sales is more important than ever. In practice, a significant number of organizations lack tight alignment in at least one key area—most notably in goals and objectives of the ABM program.

Approaches have changed, but measurement has not.

B2B organizations are prioritizing metrics that are inadequate for measuring ROI in today’s marketing mix. Case in point: 76% of respondents who state that ABM is an important part of their organization’s growth objectives review MQLs daily or weekly, while only 49% review MQAs that frequently.

Personalization ≠ humanization.

84% of B2B tech marketers believe personalizing marketing tactics to individuals rather than to a persona significantly improves effectiveness. But truly successful personalization remains elusive. Marketing leaders we surveyed identified a lack of high-quality content and the right technology as barriers to creating the connected and human experiences buyers seek.
