I spend a lot of time looking at the potential of account based marketing and how it can help solve the challenges marketers face today and tomorrow.
The ability to scale account based marketing beyond targeting a small number of accounts is the driving force behind its accelerating adoption. Marketers are increasingly turning to account based marketing because it can transform the buying experience and drive more revenue faster.
As the last few weeks have unfolded, marketers have had to react rapidly to a changing environment. Both channel and messaging has had to be changed in a short time.
