Accelerated Prospecting with Account-Based Marketing
Shopping around capabilities and case studies has become the single-most dated approach to prospecting.
When orchestrated strategically, methodically and efficiently – newer methods of proactive prospecting can open new doors in a matter of weeks. To that end, this live web training program has been completely updated for 2021 to addresses the market volatility and the shorter-term revenue needs of agencies.
Account-Based Marketing (ABM) will help to identify and convert your best prospects more quickly. This series will teach you a more strategic approach, starting with hyper-focused targeting. You begin by identifying the specific clients your agency can most quickly and easily turn into new assignments. One by one, those leads will receive a personalized call-to-action supported by value-rich, insight-driven content. With this approach, prospects are pulled into your pipeline with a sense of urgency and momentum. This prevents leads from stalling and never converting. Simple, but sophisticated, new tech tools help support this powerful approach.
In fact, there are small and mid-sized agencies using ABM right now to achieve unusually high growth. Because of the emphasis on focus and efficiency, this approach requires fewer agency resources, and ultimately leads to faster conversion.
