Account-based reporting is a lead generation strategy that tracks, analyzes and reports on leads at the account level rather than the lead level. This approach allows businesses to focus their efforts on accounts that are more likely to convert into customers.
ABR can be used to:
- prioritize accounts based on criteria such as budget, company size, or industry
- track account engagement across multiple touchpoints
- measure ROI of account-based marketing campaigns
1. Develop a targeted list of accounts and decision makers within those accounts.
2. Personalize your messaging to speak directly to the pain points and goals of each account.
3. Utilize a combination of channels, such as display ads, social media, email campaigns, and events, to reach multiple decision makers within an account.
4. Measure success by tracking engagement and conversions from targeted accounts.
5. Continuously analyze and optimize campaigns for maximum effectiveness.
There are a number of benefits that come with using account-based reporting:
1. You can get a more holistic view of your business performance by tracking specific accounts rather than just general metrics.
2. You can better identify areas of opportunity and potential issues within accounts.
3. You can track the impact of specific account-based marketing initiatives.
4. You can better understand the sales pipeline and where deals are in the process.
5. You can more easily measure account-level ROI.
6. You can use account-based reporting to inform your business strategy and decision-making.
7. You can improve communication and collaboration between sales and marketing teams by aligning around specific accounts.
8. You can build stronger relationships with key accounts by tailored and targeted reporting.
9. You can increase customer retention and satisfaction by providing account-level insights.
10. You can reduce costs associated with poor account management.
There are four types of account-based reporting:
1. Single-Account Reporting
2. Multi-Account Reporting
3. Aggregate Account Reporting
4. Custom Account Reporting
Single-Account Reporting is when you focus your reporting on a single account. This type of report is useful for giving you an in-depth look at a specific account.
Multi-Account Reporting is when you focus your reporting on multiple accounts. This type of report is useful for giving you an overview of multiple accounts.
Aggregate Account Reporting is when you focus your reporting on an aggregate of accounts. This type of report is useful for giving you an overview of a group of accounts.
Custom Account Reporting is when you focus your reporting on a custom selection of accounts. This type of report is useful for giving you an overview of a specific set of accounts.
ABR can be used for both inbound and outbound marketing purposes. However, account-based reporting is generally more focused on outbound lead generation efforts. This is because outbound lead generation tends to involve more targeted marketing to specific accounts, rather than just casting a wide net and hoping for the best. As such, account-based reporting provides more detailed insights into the effectiveness of outbound lead generation campaigns.
Many analytics tools collect lead intelligence data points after a lead has been generated. This is too late to help you optimize your lead generation strategy. ABR uses predictive modeling to give you the ability to see which leads are most likely to convert, so you can make changes to your lead generation strategy in real-time. This allows you to focus your resources on the leads that are most valuable, and increase your conversion rate while decreasing your cost per lead.
