What is Account Based Marketing (ABM)?

Why ABM targets high-value clients instead of a broad audience

21 January 2026 -

“ABM is all about quality over quantity: focus on your dream clients and build real relationships.”

Account Based Marketing (ABM) flips the traditional marketing funnel on its head. Instead of targeting a broad audience, ABM focuses your marketing and sales efforts on a carefully selected set of high-value accounts the companies you want as clients.

It’s all about quality over quantity. With ABM, you create highly personalized campaigns tailored to the specific needs, goals, and pain points of each target account. Think custom content, dedicated landing pages, 1-on-1 outreach, and strategic collaboration between marketing and sales.

This alignment not only increases the chances of closing deals, but also helps build long-term, trust-based relationships with key stakeholders.

ABM requires a deeper investment in research and coordination, but the payoff is clear: higher win rates, shorter sales cycles, and stronger customer loyalty.

Curious if ABM is the right approach for your business? Start by identifying your dream clients and build your strategy around them.
