Senior ABM manager who is in charge of campaign orchestration, goal setting, developing playbooks for marketing and sales, and managing campaign execution.2. SDR who is in charge for activation of engaged accounts.3. Copywriter to write personalized pitches, landing pages, etc.4. Intent & research specialist.Most B2B companies skip this function because they neglect the importance of research. But if you want to land enterprise clients, you must do your homework:- Understanding account's needs, goals and priorities- Defining the goals and challenges of the buying committee members- Understanding at what buying stage the account currently is- Figuring out how well this account is aware of your productThese insights are priceless for a proper ABM execution.5. Designer is responsible for creatives, landing pages, and direct mail swag.--------These roles should be managed and coordinated by a senior ABM manager.Generating enterprise 6-figure deals requires a lot of customization and personalization, but many B2B companies do it the opposite way.They use the same tactics they used to sell to SMB or obsolete playbooks like:1. Create a wish list of accounts they want to have as clients2. Upload accounts to LinkedIn or 6sense/Demandbase3. Run display ads that lead to gated content or a landing page4. Track clicks and transfer the accounts who clicked the ads to sales5. Sales reach out But enterprise customers don't buy because they saw your "personalized" ad, or they loved your great gated report.They buy if:- They know, like, and trust your company- Every buying committee member sees how exactly your product might help and what's the ROIIt's 2022.Don't expect to generate enterprise 6-figure deals by running "growth hacks" or the same tactics you used to sell $10 subscriptions.Vladimir on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vladimirblagojevic/Andrei on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/azinkevich/On-Demand B2B Marketing Courses: https://fullfunnel.io/b2b-marketing-cFull-Funnel Insider - A Marketing Newsletter For B2B Marketers: https://fullfunnel.io/marketing-newslJoin our community for B2B marketers - The Trenches: https://sendfox.com/trenchesUpcoming events: https://lu.ma/fullfunnel/eventsFull-Funnel Marketing Content Hub: https://fullfunnel.io/blogFrederic on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frederic-linfjard/
