Deep dives
Workday's Unique ABM Structure
Workday employs a distinctive structure for its account-based marketing (ABM) strategy, involving two separate teams: the ABM team and the account-based experience (ABX) team. The ABM team focuses on creating personalized engagements with a select list of key accounts determined collaboratively with sales, targeting both short- and long-term opportunities. Their evolution over the years has led to goals that include not only generating new leads but also supporting deal closure and upselling to existing customers. In contrast, the ABX team complements existing regional efforts by leveraging data to identify larger opportunities, which enhances the overall marketing strategy without overlapping with local initiatives.
