Account Research
Build a picture of a target account — its business, its people, and its triggers
— so outreach lands with relevance.
When to use
- A named account enters the pipeline.
- Before a first call, to earn the buyer's time.
Steps
- Understand the account's business and where it is heading.
- Map the buying committee and each person's likely concern.
- Find the trigger — a change that makes now the right time.
- Connect your offer to a problem the account actually has.
- Summarize into a briefing with an angle for the first touch.
Output
An account briefing: business context, buying map, trigger, and a first-touch
angle, following the [[Sales playbook]]. Feeds outreach.
