Common Mistakes to Avoid
Ehsan's Growth Commentary
In my experience advising Media companies, Account-Based Marketing at Series C is a critical growth lever that deserves dedicated resources. The mistake is treating it as a project rather than a process. Build the team, build the dashboard, then build the machine.
For 80-200 people teams: assign one person to own Account-Based Marketing end-to-end. Shared ownership means zero accountability. Hire a specialist with industry experience.
