Overview

Building target account audiences in the Demandbase ABM Platform enables you to use and manage them for key ABM campaigns throughout the buyer journey. Once you create audiences in the ABM Platform, you can manage and use them from one central location across all funnel stages for advertising, site personalization, sales team insights, and measuring the effectiveness of your ABM tactics.

Tip

The size of your target account list depends on a variety of individual factors, including your business goals, team size and broader company initiatives. If you’re struggling to define accounts or need help proving the value of ABM within your organization, consider running a pilot program with a small number of accounts. As you start to see success, you can scale your ABM initiative and support a larger list of companies.
