Did you notice so many marketers seem to approach Account-Based Marketing (ABM) as setting up the fanciest VIP event? You carefully curate the guest list (target accounts), roll out the red carpet (multi-channel campaigns), and craft the perfect experience (personalized content). But after all that effort, you’re not on the location and have absolutely zero idea who arrived, what their experience was and if they’re ever gonna want to do that again with you.
Sure, your LinkedIn ads got clicks, your website saw traffic spikes, and your SDRs are sending follow-ups. But did the right accounts engage? More importantly, which ones converted?
That’s where attribution falls apart.
If you’re struggling to connect your ABM investments to real business outcomes, you’re not alone. Because if ABM’s execution wasn’t complicated enough, then there’s the attribution issue that’s even a bigger challenge. Most marketing teams rely on a chaotic mix of Google Analytics, ad platform reports, and CRM data, hoping to piece together a coherent story. Spoiler alert: It doesn’t work.
But here’s the good news: There’s a (for now) little-known tool that changes the game. Trendemon, a first-party intelligence and activation data platform, makes ABM attribution feel like magic. No more guessing which accounts engaged. No more hoping your content resonated. Just clear, actionable data that ties account-level engagement to real pipeline impact.
Let’s break it down.
If you’ve ever stared at Google Analytics trying to prove ABM ROI, you know the struggle. Sure, you might see an uptick in traffic, but how do you know who exactly visited?
Without account-level data, you’re flying blind.
ABM is about targeting high-value accounts, but not individual leads. But most marketing teams still measure success with traditional lead-based metrics like MQLs. Remember the dinner metaphor we brought up earlier? So that’s like trying to measure the success of a dinner party by counting RSVPs instead of actual attendees.
A VP of Security at a Fortune 500 company might visit your site 10 times and never fill out a form. Meanwhile, a random IT consultant downloads your whitepaper and gets labeled an MQL. See the problem?
Even if you’ve set up multi-touch attribution in HubSpot, Salesforce, or another CRM, you’re still missing key data points. Why? Because most attribution models rely on known users.
ABM success often hinges on anonymous visitors—those who engage deeply before ever filling out a form. If you can’t track those interactions at the account level, you’re missing a massive part of the story.
Now, let’s talk about Trendemon—the ABM magic trick you didn’t know you needed.
At its core (the Intelligence layer) Trendemon does two things:
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
The first thing you do when implementing Trendemon, is tell it which traffic segments you most care about. We’re talking business definitions, just like you’re used to when you build audiences in, say, LinkedIn. So you can use:
Trendemon shows you exactly which companies within your target segments visit your website—no guessing, no assumptions. Instead of just seeing “100 visitors from LinkedIn,” you’ll know:
You can finally answer the million-dollar question: Are your target accounts actually paying attention?
Knowing who visited your website is cool enough, especially when it’s your ICP. But Trendemon also shows you how engaged they were.
Instead of treating all website visitors the same, you can segment by real intent signals.
Now comes the fun part—figuring out what’s actually working. With Trendemon’s GTM Compass, you can apply filters like:
This lets you zoom in on specific account segments and see:
In other words, you can stop wasting budget on tactics that look good in dashboards but don’t actually move the needle.
Imagine you’re running an ABM campaign targeting cybersecurity companies in North America. You’re promoting:
After a month, your traditional analytics tell you:
Great, but how many of those came from the companies you actually care about?
With Trendemon, you’d know:
Now, instead of celebrating vanity metrics, you have clear proof that your ABM efforts drove the right engagement—and real pipeline impact.
Knowing which pieces of content drive engagement (and conversions) lets you double down on what’s working and ditch the fluff.
No more wasted spend on unqualified clicks. Focus your budget on ads that actually influence high-value accounts.
When marketing can show exactly which accounts are engaged, sales teams can prioritize the right follow-ups—and close deals faster.
We all know ABM isn’t a “set it and forget it” strategy. Trendemon’s real-time insights let you adjust messaging, content, and targeting on the fly.
Most ABM tools cost a fortune and require a months-long setup. With Envy, you can start benefiting from Trendemon absolutely for free, no strings attached.
