whitePaper | June 1, 2022

Waiting on hold to get help is inevitable. That being said, long wait times, being bounced around to multiple people, and inability to resolve issues contribute to overall poor experiences for customers and businesses. Time flies when we’re having fun, and it drags on when we’re bored. Sometimes it’s on our side, and other times it’s racing against us. 90-seconds can feel like an eternity when you’re sitting on the phone waiting for help, or answering automated voice prompts, or even waiting for a response from an agent on live chat agent.

Smarter Go-To-Market Powered By Account Intelligence

whitePaper | February 1, 2023

The information you need to target your ideal accounts efficiently is scattered across your systems and processes (or just plain hidden, such as buyer intent). As a result of the broken and incomplete data, your sales and marketing teams have account blindness. They have no choice but to make hunch-based decisions. It doesn’t matter how much training you’ve put them through. They will end up spamming prospects (and maybe even existing clients) because they don’t have the intelligence-based insights to guide them.

Your buyers’ lives, preferences, and expectations have changed. Two-thirds or 67% of buyers prefer remote or digital interactions - and they expect those interactions to be substantive and valuable. They hold your sellers to a high standard. That means the buying experiences of the past - in-person meetings, transactional conversations, and linear sales funnels - no longer deliver. So forget your old sales playbook. Your best value proposition is an impactful buying experience that guides people to the best possible decision.

Everywhere marketers turn, people are talking about Intent data. After all, 94% of marketers believe that using data to track buyer Intent gives them a competitive advantage. But Intent data is now a term whose meaning, like most buzzwords, has gotten diluted. There’s a false belief that Intent data is a silver bullet, alleged to solve any and all marketing woes. But in reality, many organizations are barely scraping the surface of how Intent data can benefit them and, more importantly, their bottom line.

The Marketer’s Roadmap To Mature Omnichannel Account-Based Experiences

whitePaper | June 10, 2022

Responsive buyer experiences and relevant content across channels have always been the top criteria for mature, highperforming, omnichannel account-based orchestrations. But much of today’s conversation revolves around linear, top-down campaigns, where the target account is placed in a marketing or sales play, operating within a siloed platform throughout the buyer’s journey. The result is often antithetical to the desired buyer “experience.” Operating without the necessary data management, intent, prediction, and consistent personalization, these platforms cannot deliver high-performing orchestration simply by slapping a new name on the same old ABM technology. In a rush to accelerate the delivery of “account-based experiences” (ABX), the platforms that support it have become a critical bottleneck, creating yet another siloed system that adds to the complexity and undermines the outcomes it is intended to improve.
