Demandbase, the leader in Account-Based Marketing (ABM), announced the results of its 2020 ABM Market Research Study. Conducted in collaboration with Outreach, PFL, Uberflip, Metadata.io, Drift, and Bombora, almost 900 employees from companies of all sizes were surveyed about their experiences with ABM. The study took a holistic view of ABM trends to identify the keys to ABM success, as well as the biggest challenges that hinder it. The insights will help B2B revenue teams maximize the impact of their ABM strategies and transform how they manage and invest in programs.
