How to Create ABM Personalization Inside Your CMS

Before jumping to the details, here's a short video showcasing account-based personalization with Ninetailed:

Step 1: Defining the Audience and Creating Personalized Content

Understanding your audience is the first step towards effective personalization in account-based marketing. To achieve this, audience segmentation plays a pivotal role. Here are some of the methods you can employ to create distinct audience segments for your ABM strategy:

  • Paid Campaigns: Utilize UTM parameters to create audiences based on target accounts from your paid campaigns. This allows you to personalize your messaging for these specific accounts, enhancing their user experience and increasing the likelihood of conversion.

  • Intent Data Sources: Platforms such as Albacross, Clearbit, 6Sense, and others provide valuable intent data. Leveraging this data can help you identify and understand the behaviors and interests of your target accounts, enabling you to tailor your content accordingly.

  • CRM Systems: Your CRM, like HubSpot, is a treasure trove of data, including information about open deals, MQLs, SQLs, and more. Use this data to create focused audience segments and deliver personalized experiences that resonate with each group's unique needs and expectations.

  • Customer Data Platforms (CDP): A single-source-of-truth CDP, like Segment, allows you to consolidate and utilize data from various touchpoints across the customer journey. This comprehensive view of your customers empowers you to create highly personalized experiences that drive engagement and conversions.

Once you have your audience defined, the next step is to create personalized content that resonates with each group. This involves tailoring your message to reflect the preferences, needs, and aspirations of your audience segment.
