Ehsan's Growth Commentary
The data from 252 companies shows Account-Based Marketing generates 33% of pipeline for MarTech companies at Series A. But only when implemented with discipline. At this stage, every experiment should run for exactly 2 weeks before evaluation.
For 10-30 people teams: assign one person to own Account-Based Marketing end-to-end. Shared ownership means zero accountability. The founder should be the owner until Series B.
