Organizing Account-Based Attribution For B2B

Account-based attribution is a technique for organizing data. It’s about tying your efforts directly to revenue so you can optimize for the right outcome. In most B2B organizations, the marketing team and the sales team have their separate data, and the two rarely overlap. But that needs to change. Your marketing team should care about the sales data as it holds the ultimate key for success revenue.

If you want to be able to grow your pipeline marketing, Deck 7 experts can expand all the stages of the funnel, instead of focusing on just one stage of it. By using multi-touch/full-path attribution analysis to measure the ROI of their efforts, ABM practitioners can make better decisions regarding their budget allocations.

  • ABM is more than just marketing – it is a customized strategy based on the mix of customer-facing functions, marketing, sales development, and sales.
  • When doing a data-driven research on what factors contribute to ABM success, TOPO concluded that Orchestration was by far the most effective. It not only coordinated sales and marketing’s efforts but also allowed organizations to direct those efforts against the ICP.Then defining the Ideal Customer Profile was found among the top three success factors by 15% of the survey respondents. Having a strong base of ICP has been one of the key differentiators for big players and remains one of the reasons for success.Most businesses look to the right technology for their account based orchestration, however, finding the right technology should not overshadow the need to establish a strong account based strategy first. The same is reflected in the research results, where only 11% of respondents chose technology as a key contributor to account based marketing’s success.
