Skip to minute 6:19 to hear Malorie discuss the most common mistakes sales leaders make in their account segmentation:
"The number one mistake that I see is not having a clear vision of your ideal customer profile. I find that many organizations have conflicting ideas of what makes an ideal customer, and some haven't even defined it at all. So, when we do an account segmentation exercise, the first thing we do is look at what your data is telling us and match that up against qualitative feedback from your leadership, your sellers, and your customers. This allows us to get the whole story, and we can draw a complete and accurate picture of what your ideal customer looks like."
