CRM for account-based sales

Account-based sales (ABS) is a strategic sales model in which organizations invest significant resources in pursuing highly targeted accounts.

In a typical ABS strategy, the sales team first builds a list of high-value companies it wants to target that match the organization’s ideal customer profile, then develops a list of contacts within these accounts to pursue.

Rather than working off scripts and templates, account-based sales teams tailor their outreach to the specific accounts in question, focusing on personalized, higher-touch interactions with multiple stakeholders. It’s a quality-not-quantity approach that treats each named account as a market of one.

Success in account-based sales depends on interdepartmental collaboration—a “full-court press” that involves sales, marketing, and executive management working together to win deals. But since most CRMs don’t match leads to accounts, it can be hard for ABS teams to find a sales platform that’s built for their needs.
