Overview
To build credibility with your stakeholders and gain buy-in and resource allocation decisions for your ABM Strategy going forward, use the reporting available in the ABM Platform to highlight the business impact of your ABM campaigns.
Recommended Approach
Use ABM Analytics to generate and share reports that show successful progress of accounts through the buying cycle and impact on revenue. Use the results to facilitate conversations across your organization to highlight performance data and drive decision making on next steps and resource prioritization.
Note
When having discussions with your stakeholders about the incremental impact of marketing investment, it's critical to acknowledge that some accounts would have been expected to convert through the funnel regardless, but those that are receiving additional investment SHOULD be converting at much higher rates.
