Move from buying signals to coordinated revenue plays

This playbook helps teams decide what to do when accounts show intent. It connects signal sources, intent topics, fit scoring, campaign triggers, SDR actions, content offers, and sales follow-up into one operating plan.

Signal Source Inventory

Map intent signals from review sites, content engagement, web visits, ad engagement, third-party providers, and CRM activity.

Activation Rules

Define which signals trigger SDR outreach, paid media audiences, nurture sequences, sales alerts, or executive follow-up.

Account Prioritization

Combine fit and intent so high-signal accounts are not treated the same as low-fit curiosity traffic.

Playbook Library

Document the message, channel, owner, timing, and asset for each intent-based campaign motion.

What the template includes

The playbook is built around a simple question: when a target account shows interest, what should marketing and sales do next?

01 Intent Signal Map
List the tools, topics, behaviors, and thresholds that indicate active buyer interest.
02 Account Fit Overlay
Define how firmographics, ICP fit, tier, stage, and territory ownership change the response to an intent signal.
03 Activation Workflow
Map each signal to the right next action across paid media, SDR outreach, email nurture, sales tasks, and executive engagement.
04 Message and Content Matrix
Match intent topics to landing pages, sales assets, proof points, objection handling, and recommended CTAs.
05 Sales Handoff Rules
Clarify when alerts should go to SDRs, AEs, customer success, or marketing operations.
06 Measurement Plan
Track account engagement, meetings, opportunity creation, pipeline, and closed-won influence from intent-driven plays.

Who This Template Is For

Demand gen teams, ABM marketers, sales development leaders, marketing operations managers, and revenue teams using intent data to prioritize accounts.

How To Use It

Start by listing your signal sources and intent topics. Define the threshold for action, map each signal to a campaign or sales play, and review performance monthly so the activation rules improve over time.
