If you have read or considered great books like ABM is B2B by Sangram Vajre or A Practitioner’s Guide to Account-based Marketing by Bev Burgess, you will enjoy this fresh and up-to-date take on ABM.

Adam and Ben speak with hundreds of sales and marketing leaders every year. Several recurring issues come up: How to get started with ABM, how to win and grow a more profitable customer base and how to turn marketing into a competitive advantage.

This book will answer these questions about ABM and propose a new, more holistic model for making your sales and marketing more effective.

ABM is part of the answer and is emerging as the way to acquire new and more profitable customers. In addition, a relatively new concept has emerged called “account-based experience” (ABX) that addresses how to cross-sell, upsell, and convert customers into evangelists.

This book proposes a new more efficient model that combines ABM, ABX, and other account-based strategies. We call it…
