What You'll Actually Do

Time Breakdown

Account Research (25%) | Campaign Building (30%) | Sales Alignment (25%) | Reporting (20%)

Key Activities

  • Account Selection & Research: Work with sales to define ICP, build target account lists, research buying committees, map organizational structures. This is detective work - LinkedIn, ZoomInfo, 10-Ks, earnings calls.
  • Campaign Development: Build account-specific nurture tracks, coordinate direct mail, create custom content for target personas, set up intent monitoring. You're creating 1:few or 1:1 campaigns, not mass email blasts.
  • Sales Enablement: Create account intelligence briefs, competitive battle cards, case studies for specific industries. AEs come to you before big calls asking "what do we know about this account?"
  • Performance Tracking: Build attribution models that connect your activities to pipeline and revenue. Lots of Salesforce/MAP reporting, proving ROI, defending budget.

The Honest Reality

What's Hard

  • Attribution is messy - proving your ABM program created a deal vs sales would have gotten it anyway is constant negotiation
  • Enterprise cycles are long - campaigns you launch today won't show pipeline for 3-6 months, making it hard to iterate quickly
  • You're stuck between sales wanting more leads NOW and leadership wanting strategic programs that take time to build
  • Budget battles - ABM is expensive (data tools, direct mail, events) and you'll constantly justify spend
  • Sales alignment sounds nice but means endless meetings debating account prioritization and whether your MQAs are actually sales-ready

What Success Looks Like

  • $X million in sourced/influenced pipeline per quarter that sales agrees came from your programs
  • Target accounts moving from cold to engaged (meetings booked, content consumed, intent signals rising)
  • Sales actually using the materials you create and asking for more
  • Deals closing where you can trace back your touch points through the journey

Who You're Selling To

Primary Buyers:

  • Enterprise decision-makers (likely VP+ level given ABM focus)
  • Multiple stakeholders in complex buying committees

What They Care About:

  • Business outcomes specific to their industry/role
  • Risk mitigation and vendor credibility
  • Integration with existing tech stack
  • ROI and time-to-value

Requirements

  • Experience running ABM programs with measurable pipeline impact
  • Comfortable with revenue metrics, not just marketing metrics (pipeline created, influenced revenue, not MQLs)
  • Strong sales partnership skills - you need to work closely with AEs and get buy-in
  • Hands-on with marketing tech stack (MAP, Salesforce, intent tools, ABM platforms)
  • Account-based mindset - thinking in terms of accounts and buying committees, not individual leads
  • Analytical - building attribution models, ROI analysis, campaign performance reporting
  • Enterprise B2B experience where sales cycles are months, not weeks
