# Account Engagement scoring

The Account Engagement model (or "Account Likelihood to Buy" of "Account LTB") model is designed to help you identify the most active accounts or accounts showing the highest engagement. This product is most suited for Enterprise sales teams (teams going after enterprise accounts) or PLG account-based motions, to help them prioritize accounts based on their level of activity.

### Pre-requisites

- Use Salesforce as a CRM
  - Currently, HG Insights can only push an Account Likelihood to Buy to Salesforce Account object
  - Customers with HubSpot as a CRM cannot have an Account LTB model
- Have at least one source of behavioral data integrated
  - Salesforce campaigns, Marketo, Eloqua, Segment, Amplitude, Mixpanel, HubSpot

## **What is the Account LTB model for?**

Looking only at your most active user can hit limitations [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4BobnE5sX4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4BobnE5sX4)

**Sales**

- **Inbound account prioritization**: identifying out of your best fit accounts which ones show the highest level of engagement ready to purchase.
- **Outbound account prioritization** *(when external intent data included):***identifying out of accounts visiting your website or other websites which ones are ready to buy

**Marketing**

- **Marketing campaign segmentation**: identifying the accounts least active to increase engagement before sending to Sales

## **What is the Account LTB model?**

The Account LTB model aims at scoring accounts based on the aggregated behavior of all the u**sers explicitly attached** to the account **and** **orphan* users with the same domain** as the account, where an account is defined by its account ID.

The Account LTB model is only based on **Behavioral** data and does not include any firmographic data. For firmographic-based Account scoring, please refer to the Account Fit.

The model learns from the past activity of accounts before they convert, in order to separate accounts that are on the path to conversion from cold accounts.

***orphan users** = emails from any of your systems (Salesforce, Hubspot, Marketo, Segment, Data Warehouse...) that are not linked to a Salesforce account ID but have a matching domain

### **What data does the Account LTB model use?**

The Account LTB model scores accounts based on behavioral and intent data

- **inbound behavioral data** (web visit, product usage, email activity, sales interaction)
- **intent** = behavioral data observed on other websites and provided by 3rd party (g2crowd, bombora, PredictLeads ...). This data is usually available at the domain level, not at an individual level (email).

#### **Score**

- The Account LTB score is based on the activity of all the **users** explicitly attached to the account via the account ID and the users not attached but with a domain matching the account domain.
- The Account LTB score is a number between 0 and 100, and is updated every 4 hours with new activities, and decays over time without new activity, based on a 90-day decay.
- The Account LTB model only scores accounts **active in the last 90 days***, and **defaults to Low the others.**

*An account is considered active for a give period of time as soon as 1 person associated to the account has performed 1 event within that time period.

#### **Segment**

The Account LTB **segments******represent 4 buckets of **score**.

- ***Very high*** segment : scores from 85 to 100
- ***High*** segment : scores from 70 to 84
- ***Medium*** segment : scores from 50 to 69
- ***Low*** segment : scores from to 0 to 49

### **Signals**

Similar to the Lead LTB model, HG Insights surfaces the recent event stream and some aggregations you may want to display, such as:

- Number of active user(s) in the last 90 days
- Number of occurrences of events in the last 90 days (within a character limit of 512 in Salesforce)
- 

## **FAQ**

### **How often is the Likelihood to Buy score of an Account updated?**

The Account scoring works in batch only (no realtime scoring), and would update scores of the accounts in the scoring audience at every[Sync process](/v1/docs/how-to-read-the-processes-page-how-long-does-it-take-for-madkudu-to-score-my-leads-and-accounts) (every 4h to 12h depending on the volume of data and numbers of models running on the HG Insights platform). This applies for newly created accounts as well: they will get scored at the next Sync process.
