Why ABM Outperforms Traditional Lead Gen

Account-Based Marketing flips the funnel. Instead of casting a wide net and hoping the right fish swim in, you identify your ideal accounts first and build campaigns specifically for them.

ABM results vs. traditional marketing:

Metric	Traditional	ABM	Improvement
Deal size	$25K avg	$85K avg	3.4x
Win rate	15%	28%	1.9x
Sales cycle	90 days	65 days	28% faster
Customer LTV	$75K	$180K	2.4x

The ABM Implementation Roadmap

Build your target account list using firmographic, technographic, and intent data. Score accounts on fit and engagement.

Phase 2: Intelligence Gathering (Week 3-4)

Map the buying committee for each target account. Understand their business challenges, strategic priorities, and competitive landscape.

Phase 3: Content & Campaign Creation (Week 5-8)
