Visibility depends on relevant topics and distribution; trust depends on cases and evidence; action depends on a clear next step; qualification depends on screening criteria. The efficiency of the proactive development is first determined by the ideal customer image and target account quality, accurate search is not a product keyword, but a combination of industry, region, size, application, position and business signals.
