Account-based marketing—or client-centric marketing, as Accenture
calls it—is taking the technology services industry by storm. The
approach revolves around marketing initiatives to build business and
strengthen relationships within single accounts. Working in partnership
with sales-led account teams, account-based marketing can provide a more
strategic and sustainable program to long-term success with key clients
and prospects.
This ITSMA Viewpoint provides insights into Accenture’s client-centric
marketing practices via comments from Dr. Charles Doyle, who presented
the approach to ITSMA’s Annual Marketing Conference in October
2004.
Dr. Doyle leads all of Accenture’s marketing staff and programs
in the communications, high technology, media, and entertainment industry
groups.
