Account profiling
Account profiling
Every business is different when it comes to why they invest in working with an account-based marketing company. For example, you may want to target a specific account, like a current client. Or, you’re looking to use account-based marketing to improve your company’s acquisition strategy and client value.
No matter why you’re investing, our account-based marketing services include account profiling. With account profiling, your dedicated account manager takes an in-depth look at your business. Using our research, we can create an ideal customer profile (ICP) for your company.
With an ICP, we look at several factors, including:
- Employee count
- Customer base size
- Annual revenue
- Industry
- Technology
- Geography
- Budget
Once you have an ICP, our account-based marketing agency can streamline the process of evaluating and valuing potential accounts. This expedited process makes choosing targeted accounts easy. You know the potential value of the account, as well as its similarities with your ICP, which helps you decide about pursuing it with ABM marketing.
Target account analysis
Target account analysis
Following your ICP, as well as approval for a target account, your dedicated account manager begins the process of analyzing that account. This step is critical because it provides the foundation to your account-based marketing strategy.
As a part of their research, your dedicated account manager investigates the following features:
- Number of key decision-makers
- Company size
- Company requirements for services or products
- Company budget
This research provides your dedicated account manager with several helpful pieces of data. For example, they can determine how many decision-makers you need to convert, as well as the location of those decision-makers in the buying funnel.
All this information plays a direct role in your strategy.
Competitor evaluation
Competitor evaluation
Before your dedicated account manager creates your account-based marketing plan, they look at your competitors. With this step, your account manager can determine which businesses are also competing for your account. They can also see what strategies your competitors use in their campaigns.
With our competitor analyses, we like to look at the following factors:
- Budget
- Strategy
- Management (outsourced or in-house)
Understanding the budgets, plans, and management approach of your competition can help your account manager and business develop a competitive and effective campaign for reaching and converting a target account.
Even better, a competitor evaluation reveals the strengths and weaknesses of your competitor. With our award-winning team, you can target those weaknesses and incorporate those strengths into your strategy.
Strategy development
Strategy development
Next, your dedicated account manager starts outlining your account-based marketing campaign. With their research, they can develop a strategy that captures not only your brand but also the attention of key decision-makers at your target account.
During this stage, your dedicated account manager references their research, as well as discussions with your team. They review your brand standards, product or services features, and preferences to build a strategy that adheres to your guidelines and goals.
When creating your strategy, your dedicated account manager aims to answer five questions:
- What questions do we need to answer for company decision-makers?
- Which channels, like search or social, can help us reach company decision-makers?
- What short- and long-term goals do we want to accomplish?
- How much should we spend on each channel?
- How can we target decision-makers in different stages of the buying funnel?
While this process can take time, you can trust your account manager to provide a fast turnaround. As an extension of your team, they understand how valuable this account is to your business. They prepare your strategy and help your company launch it without delay.
Campaign optimization
Campaign optimization
Once your dedicated account manager launches your campaign, they start the process of optimizing it. With optimization, your dedicated account manager looks for areas of improvement. These areas can have a direct impact on your strategy, as well as your bottom line.
As an example, if your account-based marketing strategy includes a social media advertising campaign, your account manager may have a few suggestions after the first month. For instance, they may recommend revising ad copy, updating ad images, or refining ad targeting to get better results.
While some businesses look at optimization as a sign of failure, it’s not. With optimization, you can improve your strategy, as well as leverage additional data. In the above example, for instance, you gain a better understanding of your audience when it comes to targeting.
If you don’t optimize your campaign, you’re giving away accounts to competitors that do.
Routine reporting
Routine reporting
With all our services, from account-based marketing to voice search optimization, we provide your team with regular monthly reporting. Depending on your business, preference, and service package, you may receive reports on a weekly, rather than monthly, basis.
While you can access a significant amount of campaign data via MarketingCloudFX, our client-exclusive marketing software suite, your routine account-based marketing consulting check-in with your dedicated account manager provides additional insight into your campaign.
For example, your manager may discuss which aspects of your campaign work well. They may also highlight areas of improvement, providing action-based (and data-backed) recommendations for increasing the performance and results of these areas.
When you chat with your dedicated account manager, it’s also an opportunity to ask questions. If you’re unsure about a specific strategy, term, or tool, feel free to ask your account manager about it. You can also message your dedicated account manager with questions too.
As your account-based marketing firm, it’s essential for us to provide all the information you need. Whether you have a simple or complex question, we’re always ready to share our knowledge and offer advice. That’s why more than 90 percent of our clients stay with us.

FAQs about ABM services
What is account-based marketing?
ABM is a marketing strategy in which you target a set of highly qualified, high-value accounts with campaigns personalized to each account’s needs and preferences. This approach makes your marketing and sales processes more efficient, and the tailored customer experiences increase satisfaction and loyalty.
What are the benefits of ABM services?
Why should you consider ABM services? Here are some of the top benefits of account-based marketing:
1. Increased efficiency
With ABM, you focus on only the accounts with the most potential value, cutting out other less-qualified prospects. Because you’re targeting only the highest-value accounts, you can achieve more with less. The result is fewer wasted resources and a simplified marketing and sales process.
2. Reduced risk
Devoting your resources to only the most qualified leads also reduces your risk. Since you know these accounts are highly qualified, there’s a higher chance you’ll get a sale. Because the accounts are high value, the reward is also higher.
3. Marketing and sales alignment
ABM requires your marketing and sales team to work together to provide a personalized experience for each account. This alignment creates a more consistent experience for the buyer and makes your processes even more efficient.
4. Easier campaign monitoring and results analysis
Tracking your campaigns and analyzing your results is easier with ABM since you have fewer accounts and a clearly defined plan for each account. This simplicity makes it easier to analyze your campaign’s effectiveness.
5. Increased sales and customer satisfaction
Along with the fact that the leads you’re targeting are highly qualified, the personalization that ABM provides can increase sales and customer satisfaction. According to a survey by ITSMA and the ABM Leadership Alliance, 87% of B2B marketers say that ABM improves return on investment (ROI), and 74% say it has improved their relationships.
