When things don’t work
We’re taught to …push harder
This is traditional wisdom & doesn’t seem to work always
But if you’re trying to accelerate deals in your pipeline
Sending 12 emails in 2 days is DEFINITELY not going to work
Doing this will ensure you get spam-blocked
So, what do we actually do to increase pipeline velocity?
Now here are 4 effective tactics you can add to your ABM playbook:
1. Follow your champions
Satisfied customers who join a new company are very likely to recommend you and your product/service.
Follow the train and use the relationship to your advantage
You may get into a new company because your champion moved there
2. Right Data > More Data
There may be 10,000 data points out there
The trick is in choosing the right signals (the ones you can act on)
The ones sales can use to close faster
And of course, act on this data with personalized attention
3. Brand Awareness
Use targeted ads as air cover to stay top of mind.
If running too many 1:1 personalized ads seems like a lot of work to you
You know which platform will help (enter Recotap)
4. Demand Acceleration
Figure out your prospects’ pain points
Now run ads that specifically address these concerns only to that account (Recotap can take care of this)
Now that your pipeline velocity is up, don’t forget the payload
Choose the right ICP fit accounts ONLY to ensure maximum lift-off
