Programme Overview

programme overview

The Law of the Vital Few suggests that the vast majority of results are driven by a few key clients. Valuing and revaluing key accounts, therefore, becomes a core criterion for building successful and enduring B2B relationships. Businesses today are increasingly switching from a sales funnel-based approach to the more focused and proven Account-Based Marketing method to reap manifold benefits across marketing objectives.

This interactive 4-day programme will equip you with the strategic mindset, thinking frameworks and management tools to reorient your organisation and transition it seamlessly to account-based marketing. You will learn to continuously reassess Key Performance Indicators to help you service high-visibility accounts and generate higher value from them.
