“Account-based strategies require a high level of personalization,” said David Tam, Director of Marketing at OneLogin and a joint Leadspace-Bombora customer. “You need to go after the right accounts, with the right message, at the right time, with the same message aligned across all sales, marketing and ad channels.”
“Using Leadspace and Bombora together we get that full picture: enriching our databases so our Sales, Marketing and SDR teams are all confident in the data; using AI modeling to prioritize and predict our best customers; and finally augmenting all that information with intent data to know who’s in-market for what, so Sales can focus on the best accounts in real-time. It’s helped us improve pipeline quality and marketing engagement – for example increasing email open rates by 60% and doubling reply rates – and dramatically speed up sales cycles.”

“ABM succeeds when sales and marketing work closely toward the same goals.” said Erik Matlick, CEO and co-founder of Bombora. “The easiest way to find that success is for both departments to start with insights from a single data source. Intent data that shows which target accounts are actively in-market helps sales and marketing tailor their efforts to the best prospects, and avoid those that are not engaged in the buying cycle. Working with Leadspace ensures the easy orchestration of Bombora’s insights across these departments.”
