When you know who your most profitable and high-profile clients are, why wouldn’t you want to attract more organisations just like them? Well, that’s exactly what account based marketing (ABM) enables businesses to achieve. By targeting a hand-picked group of ‘dream’ prospects, companies can focus their energy and resources on creating highly targeted messaging and activity.

This account based marketing approach enables businesses to increase their average order values, work with bigger brands, and effectively measure their ROI. However, it’s not for everyone.

Do they have a clearly defined list of dream prospects? Do they have the resources in-house to manage this resource-intensive activity? For businesses that are unable to meet this criteria, their marketing budgets are better spent on other activity.
