ABM Social Selling Success Board
This interactive board was created in collaboration between 3M and Momentum Data.

It highlights the main successes and insights from the highly effective ABM Social Selling programs run together globally since 2020 as part of 3M's demand generation strategy.
THEN
In 2020, Dave Williams, Global Marketing Manager Privacy Solutions, needed an innovative way to drive interest after the pandemic.

He chose ABM Social Selling with Momentum Data as it could achieve account-based targeting at scale.

The first campaigns saw immediate success by offering free samples to key targets that were difficult to reach via other channels.

As a result, new campaigns expanded through IATD and PSD, through Europe and then quickly into APAC and the Americas.
5 years later, 3M has used Momentum Data's campaigns to target 102 countries globally across SIBG, TEBG, HCBG.

89 sales reps' profiles have been leveraged, growing the collective 3M network by 21,000 new, relevant and qualified connections.

Campaign tactics include awareness, consideration and conversion, all achieved by organic reach on LinkedIn.

18 campaigns are currently active across the world. This board is designed to help spread the word to other 3M Marketing and Sales teams!
NOW
A strong history: How we arrived at working together in over 100 countries
Momentum Data's algorithm identified 3M's potential key target companies and contacts, and leveraged 3M's sales reps' profiles to expand their LinkedIn networks.

This enabled the generation of highly targeted and high-value sales opportunities, promotion of events, and content distrubution.

Hi {{FIRSTNAME}}

Hope you are well.

I’m reaching out to you because 3M would like to grow our partner network in the transportation design and manufacturing industry and I thought you could benefit from this. 
 
At 3M we see ourselves as a highly innovative partner when it comes to composite materials, lightweight solutions, structural joints, interior panel bonding and maintenance-friendly design.

I would like to connect and share some insights on how we have helped companies like yourselves to improve existing manufacturing processes.
 
If this interests you, could we please find some time to talk in the coming days?
 
Best regards,
{{PROFILEOWNER}}
Vielen Dank, dass Sie meine Vernetzung angenommen haben, Herr/Frau {{SECONDNAME}}
 
Ich habe den Kontakt zu Ihnen aufgenommen, weil wir unser Partnernetzwerk im Schienenfahrzeugbau erweitern und ich dachte, wir könnten gemeinsam davon profitieren.
 
Bei 3M verstehen wir uns als innovativer Partner, wenn es um Verbundwerkstoffe, Leichtbau, strukturelle Verbindungen und Innenverkleidungen geht.
 
Gerne würde ich in einem ersten Austausch mit Ihnen beginnen und zeigen, wo wir Menschen in ähnlichen Unternehmen wie Ihnen helfen konnte, ihre bestehenden Prozesse zu verbessern.
 
Hätten Sie in den kommenden Wochen einmal Zeit für einen 20-minütigen Austausch?
 
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

I started this conversation with you because we're growing our partner network in the railcar manufacturing industry and I thought you could benefit from this. At 3M we see ourselves as a highly innovative partner when it comes to composite materials, lightweight solutions, structural joints and interior panel bonding.

I would love to connect and share some insights on some projects where we have helped people in similar companies to you to improve their existing manufacturing processes.

Would you have some time for a 20 minute call next week?

Best regards
