ABM is all about prioritization and engagement; prioritizing your top accounts, and organizing content to engage and educate accounts. In this session, Francesca Krihely, Director of ABM and Demand Generation at MongoDB, showcased the many ways she has used Uberflip as the underlying content experience tool for powering her ABM strategy to organize, distribute, and measure the impact of their content.

Thoughts
• Inbound requires great content and content delivery to yield results
• When getting started with ABM, think about Account Prioritization and
segmentation
• Organize your content by industry and persona to help make ABM
engagement easier.
– You already have the content - you just need to organize it!
• Integrated campaigns work. But they work better when Sales has a seat
at the table and is aligned on goals.
