Скачать или смотреть Inside AVEVA’s ABM: The Action Board That Changed Everything | Andrew Reed (Episode 81)

Account-Based Marketing at scale is hard—here’s how AVEVA actually did it.
From a single 1:1 pilot to 87 enterprise accounts, this episode shows the playbook.

In this Let’s talk ABM episode, we dive deep into AVEVA’s journey from a white-glove 1:1 program to a global Account-Based Marketing motion across 87 enterprise accounts. You’ll learn the decisions, tools, and frameworks that moved ABM from “nice pilot” to a repeatable growth engine.

Andrew Reed, Director of ABM at AVEVA, breaks down the value proposition shift that unlocked executive buy-in, how his team turned dashboards into “action boards,” and why they prioritize a human-first account experience layered on top of digital. We unpack practical steps to pick the right accounts, win internal alignment, and prove revenue impact.

We also explore how AVEVA blends PathFactory and Demandbase for rapid landing-page personalization and sales-grade insights, plus the two-tier model that keeps top-20 accounts truly 1:1 while the remaining portfolio stays personalized—without going programmatic bland.

If you care about ABM strategy, 1:1 at scale, executive engagement, and driving pipeline (not just clicks), this conversation is your blueprint.

Andrew Reed is Director of ABM at AVEVA, the industrial software leader (a Schneider Electric company). He leads a global team focused on enterprise growth, evolving AVEVA’s ABM from bespoke 1:1 pilots into a systematic, revenue-linked motion across priority accounts.
