Account-Based Marketing
Account-based marketing is a B2B strategy that focuses marketing and sales effort on selected high-value accounts with personalized engagement.
Primary keyword
account based marketing
Plain-English definition
Instead of marketing broadly to anyone who might convert, ABM treats target accounts as markets that deserve tailored plays.
Why it matters
ABM can improve pipeline quality when target accounts are complex, high value, and require coordinated buying committee engagement.
Example
Marketing builds a custom executive briefing, sales sequences into the buying committee, and RevOps tracks engagement across one strategic account.
Common mistakes
Calling a named-account list ABM without personalization, ignoring sales capacity, or measuring only engagement instead of account progression.
