Categories & Use Cases

A great starter tool for new ABM teams

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I used it for ABM tracking, specifically of LinkedIn engagements. We also used it for account identification based on intent signals, web visits and social activity. It did solve some issues related to engagement tracking but could never figure out how to incorporate into Hubspot to make the data actionable

Pros

  • Web based intent signals
  • job movers is great for tracking high value ICP folks
  • LinkedIn engagements that are not conversions could be tracked

Cons

  • Hubspot integration was really difficult to use
  • Needed a way to look at technology profiles of target accounts
  • Navigation was honestly hard

Return on Investment

  • Better account alignment with sales on targets, intent signals and segmentation
  • Ability to track high value leads as they change roles
  • Making more use of our linkedIn, our largest paid channel

Common Room Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am a BDR and we use it as a prospecting tool to help research and find the ideal ICP. From there we can transfer the persons data to Hubspot, where we can draft AI messages from CR. It gives us information from who was on our website as well as setting up different plays.

Pros

  • Finding people who were on your companies website and filtering the right ICP to reach out to
  • Finding people who Interacted with our LinkedIN posts
  • Sort through company profiles and find the right contacts
  • Filtering people that are current customers to stay away from in the outbound process

Cons

  • Setting up different saved search plays to find our ICP
  • More help within the customer success team so help us set up prospecting plays
  • "keyword" searches

Return on Investment

  • Has brought in many more outbound booked meetings
  • Didn't really work for tracking the inbound process
  • Tracked to the location and minute where people were viewing your website
