    The Anatomy of AI-Powered ABM

    ABM has promised precision at scale for decades, and AI was supposed to change that. The reality is uneven. Most programs are stalled on ICP modeling and sales-and-marketing alignment, while the harder questions remain unresolved: where AI is useful, whether that's classical or generative, and how to prove attributable revenue. Hans Bunes has spent almost 30 years in technology go-to-market, and for the past six years been consulting independently on ABM projects and sales enablement. He's joining us to walk through the anatomy of an AI-powered ABM program from his vantage point and where AI can have the biggest impact.    Timestamps:  00:00 Introduction to AI in B2B Marketing  01:12 Hans Bunes' Background and Expertise  02:10 Fundamentals of Customer Understanding  03:35 Importance of Data Quality and Foundations  05:22 Overestimating Customer Profiles  07:09 ROI and Challenges of AI Investments  09:50 Using Unstructured Data for Customer Insights  11:07 AI in Targeting and Segmentation  14:25 Change Management and AI Adoption  17:24 AI as a Tool for Personalization and Content Creation  21:23 Aligning Sales and Marketing with AI  24:40 Anatomy of a Successful ABM Program  36:26 Content and Outreach Strategies with AI  41:24 Measuring Impact and Incrementality  49:53 Future Trends and Opportunities in AI  54:02 Optimism and Human-Centric AI in B2B    Links to content mentioned:  Dun & Bradstreet Harvard Business Review - Don't Automate Obliterate Saster - Jason Lemkin on AI    Want to learn more about Intercept?
