Why 2020 Became the Year of Evolving from ABM to ABX

This post is brought to you by Lauren Barraco, Head of Sendoso Product Marketing.

Account-Based Marketing has revolutionized how revenue generation teams go to market. In a recent Forbes article, TOPO analyst, Eric Wittlake cited that over 80% of B2B organizations report they are operating an ABM model. But the business landscape isn’t the same as it was a year ago…or even six months ago.The sales, marketing, and CX playbooks have fundamentally changed in 2020. Our businesses can’t use the same tactics in the same ways we have in the past, which is forcing us to evolve. The customer segmentation that comes with ABM allows you to be more relevant and efficient, but to deploy it correctly, your entire organization must shift its mindset to build programs that employ these segmentations across sales development, sales, and customer success.

That’s why today, we launched new features that will help you evolve your strategy into a more effective and efficient account-based approach: Account-Based Everything (ABX).

A successful ABX strategy requires relevance, timing, and customized experiences. With Sendoso, the leading Sending Platform and #1 Account-Based Execution solution on G2, B2B revenue teams can continuously humanize, scale, and measure their ABX efforts.

New Sendoso features will enable teams to produce the most ROI and revenue growth and help marketing, sales, and CX teams to work together to collectively drive a cross-functional account-based strategy. Learn more about these exciting updates below.
