The Problem

Account-Based Marketing teams targeting enterprise accounts need to coordinate personalized outreach across multiple stakeholders within each target company while maintaining message consistency and tracking engagement at the account level. Traditional email tools treat each contact independently, making it difficult to orchestrate multi-threaded campaigns that engage buying committees effectively. ABM managers struggle to personalize content for different personas (technical evaluators, business decision-makers, executive sponsors) while ensuring the overall narrative remains cohesive. The complexity multiplies when campaigns span multiple channels and require coordination between marketing and sales teams.

The Solution

Lemlist enables ABM teams to execute sophisticated multi-stakeholder campaigns by organizing prospects into account-based structures and creating persona-specific sequences that share common messaging themes. The platform's AI personalization adapts content for each stakeholder's role and priorities while maintaining consistent value propositions across the account. ABM managers create parallel sequences for different personas—technical deep-dives for IT evaluators, ROI-focused messaging for finance stakeholders, strategic vision content for executives—all coordinated within a unified campaign structure. Account-level dashboards show engagement across all contacts, helping teams identify which accounts are heating up and which stakeholders are most engaged.
