During the first 90 days at a new job, the relationship between a new hire and their employer is as vulnerable as it gets: 20% of all employee turnover happens during those crucial three months. Leaving a job before things really get going is becoming increasingly normal, especially for younger workers: Jobvite’s oft-cited annual “ Job Seeker Nation ” survey reports that 34% of them have, at some point in their young careers, left a job in the first 90 days.

Recruiting and marketing may be two separate fields, but in today’s digital world, the lines between these practice areas have become increasingly blurred.

The modern buyer doesn't have the patience to address basic questions with answers that anyone can find through a cursory search — nor do they have the time to fill you in on their challenges. If you pick up the phone without gathering any background information, at best, you stand to annoy the person — and at worst, you could be hung up on mid-sentence.

Too often, we think we are innovating, when all we are doing is copying. We look at our competitors, seeing what drives their success and we copy them. We try to do the very same things that makes them successful. Whether it’s the same tools, programs, methods, content, we think we innovate by copying. Or we may look at other successful organizations, assessing what they do, copying it with the hope of being as successful or better than they are.

Tech marketers were some of the very first to adopt ABM as a strategy distinct from inbound and traditional lead generation. In the beginning, account-based marketing for enterprise tech marketers was simply an account list and a high-value direct mail campaign. Over time, this was replaced with ABM platform features around paid ads and email. In reality, ABM—when matured—is a more complex and more impactful motion involving constant decisions.
