From entrepreneur and franchisee at just 17 years old to a VP of audience data, Prescott Shibles is the perfect hybrid of a heavy-industry B2B marketer mixed with an expert in paid media, technology and data. As EVP and GM of the Equipment Division at Randall-Reilly, he shares how his organization is helping companies “get predictive” about their customers. He talks about the power of account-based marketing, identifying customers who are ready-to-buy and dealing with present-day data challenges. Challenges like; benchmarking where you are and setting attributable targets by buyer sets. Even if you’re not a heavy-industry marketer, there’s something here to get you thinking.
“Knowing what someone’s looking at or what they’re interested in is a much more powerful trigger than knowing who they are.”
