AUTO-TRIGGER: Apply this skill when the user wants to build, plan, or improve an account-based marketing program. Trigger phrases include: "ABM campaign," "named account targeting," "target account list," "account-based," "we want to go after specific accounts," "enterprise accounts," "1:1 or 1:few marketing," or any request to build a coordinated sales and marketing program around a defined account list rather than broad demand generation. Also trigger when the user asks how to align sales and marketing around specific accounts or how to measure account penetration rather than lead volume. Do NOT trigger for general demand gen, inbound, or broad campaign planning that is not account-specific.

ABM Campaign Builder: Account-Based Marketing Program Design

This skill builds a structured ABM program from account selection through to sales-marketing coordination and measurement. It treats ABM as a systems problem: the account list, the tier structure, the channel mix, and the sales handoff all have to work together or the program produces activity without pipeline.

HOW TO SET UP THIS SKILL

Ask the user for the following context before proceeding:

What product or service are they selling and to whom
Average deal size and target company size range
Whether they have an existing account list or are building one
How many accounts they are targeting (rough number)
What sales and marketing resources are available to run the program
Whether they have intent data, a CRM, or marketing automation

If they have an existing program, ask what is and is not working before redesigning it.

The ABM Program Framework

A functional ABM program has five components. Build all five or the program will not hold together.

Component 1: Account selection and list building

This is where most ABM programs fail. The account list is built from gut feel or a spreadsheet of logos someone wants to land, rather than from data about which accounts are most likely to buy.

How to build the right list:

Start with closed-won data. Look at the last 12-24 months of deals that closed and identify the patterns: company size, industry vertical, tech stack, growth stage, geography, and buyer persona. That is your ICP. Accounts that match that pattern are the highest-probability targets.

Layer in intent data if available. Accounts that match the ICP and are showing buying signals (researching relevant topics, visiting competitor sites, hiring for roles that indicate a relevant initiative) are the highest-priority targets.

Filter by sales capacity. An ABM list is only as good as the coverage behind it. If sales can genuinely work 50 accounts at a time, the list should be 50 accounts, not 500.

Component 2: Tier structure

Not all ABM accounts get the same treatment. Tier structure defines how resources are allocated across the list.

Tier 1 (1:1 programs, 5-20 accounts): Highest priority accounts. Fully custom: personalized content, executive outreach, dedicated sales attention. Marketing is essentially an extension of the account team for these accounts.

Tier 2 (1:few programs, 20-100 accounts): High priority accounts grouped by vertical, use case, or persona. Campaigns are personalized to the cluster, not to the individual account.

Tier 3 (1:many programs, 100+ accounts): Scaled ABM. Accounts that match the ICP but do not yet have enough signal to warrant Tier 1 or 2 investment. Programmatic targeting and intent-triggered outreach.

Component 3: Channel and content mix

Tier 1: Direct mail, executive events, personalized video outreach, custom content specific to their situation, LinkedIn direct messaging coordinated with sales.

Tier 2: LinkedIn targeting by account list, personalized email sequences, webinars by vertical, paid retargeting against account lists, SDR outreach with account-specific context.

Tier 3: Programmatic display targeting by account list, LinkedIn sponsored content, intent-triggered email sequences.

Content principle: Every content asset should speak to a specific problem, not a generic benefit. The best ABM content makes the account feel like it was written for them specifically.

Component 4: Sales and marketing coordination

ABM only works when sales and marketing are operating from the same account plan. For each Tier 1 account, maintain:

Account overview: size, revenue, known tech stack, key initiatives
Buying committee map: stakeholders, champion, blocker
Current relationship status: cold, warm, active conversation
Marketing plays in progress: what campaigns are running
Sales plays in progress: active outreach, open opportunities
Agreed next milestone: what both teams are working toward this quarter

Coordination cadence: Weekly or biweekly for Tier 1. Monthly for Tier 2. Quarterly for Tier 3.

Component 5: Measurement framework

ABM should not be measured by lead volume. It should be measured by account penetration and pipeline influence.

Metrics that matter:

Account coverage: what percentage of target accounts have at least one known contact engaged in the last 90 days
Account penetration: what percentage have an open opportunity
Pipeline from target accounts: dollar value of pipeline created from the target account list this quarter
Win rate on target accounts vs. non-target accounts
Cycle length on target accounts

What not to measure: MQL volume from ABM campaigns. ABM does not produce MQLs. It produces account engagement. Measuring it like inbound will make the program look underperforming when it is working.

Output Rules

Base the plan on what the user actually has available: list size, budget, headcount, and tool access.
Be direct about whether they have enough resources for ABM at the scale they are describing. A 500-account Tier 1 program is not ABM.
Name specific tools only if the user has mentioned them.
No em dashes. Use commas or periods.
