The ABM Effect: How to Win, Retain, and Grow Valuable Clients for Market-Beating Growth by Alisha Lyndon

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Conventional sales and marketing strategies typically involve pitching to broad markets to establish brand recognition and stimulate demand, ultimately leading to revenue generation.

However, a more efficient and impactful approach is to acknowledge and treat each client as a distinct market in its own right.

Account-Based Marketing (ABM), pioneered by Alisha Lyndon, is quickly emerging as the number one growth strategy for firms selling high-value solutions to large and complex clients.

Packed with real-life stories and insights, this book reveals how-to approaches for:

• Enabling clients to make purchase decisions by meeting them on their terms and overcoming buyer caution
• Removing friction from the buying processes through the alignment of selling and marketing efforts
• Navigating the dynamics of buying teams, fostering genuine connections, and cultivating trust-based relationships

The ABM Effect provides a radical rethink of the role of selling and marketing when it comes to strategic clients, creating a win-win scenario for both the firm and its clients.
