    Scrappy ABM hands the mic to another show and lets the numbers speak. Mason Cosby opens this episode of Scrappy ABM by sharing a re-release from Is Anything Real in Paid Advertising?, “the show where we unpack what’s real and what’s just noise” in a chaotic world of marketing and media. Host Adam W. Barney sits down with Mason, who “lives the phrase market like you mean it” and runs a content first growth engine built on daily LinkedIn posts, weekly podcasts, cold ads, and speaking gigs at manufacturing conferences.ㅤTogether they break down how a two-year-old business scaled through podcasts, 2,000+ target accounts with a five year conversion runway, and a four-show guest system that turns one great conversation into long-term relationships. They walk through thought leadership ads on LinkedIn focused on awareness, website de-anonymization and direct outreach, barter deals for PR and speaking, and a very real look at seasonality, CPL, CAC, and knowing your numbers when you’re an agency founder staring at your pipeline and wondering if this is even worth building anymore.ㅤ📌 What We CoverHow Mason scaled a two-year-old, content first growth engine by hiring a team that’s “better at doing the work,” creating time and margin for training, education, team leadership, and running the business.Why podcasting is outperforming expectations, including a 70–80% podcast booking rate and how roughly 40% of guests turn into opportunities or referrals within 90 days.The 2,000+ account target list with a five year conversion runway, and how a four-show guest “swap” system keeps ideal buyers creating content with Scrappy ABM 4–6 times over a year to year and a half.How Mason thinks about LinkedIn thought leadership ads as pure awareness for 2025, focusing on followers, newsletter subscribers, and engaged fans instead of forcing “book a meeting” conversions.Why the team didn’t rush into retargeting, how website de-anonymization plus direct outreach became a lower cost starting point, and why upcoming case studies, ROI calculators, and marketing-specific landing pages will change the retargeting play.The disconnect Mason sees between content creators and ad buyers: running similar ads to all audiences, letting algorithms decide, and missing programs mapped to where the buyer is in their journey and their past engagement.How barter arrangements came together, including implementing HubSpot and training a sales team in exchange for PR and introductions to conferences and events that expanded speaking opportunities beyond the LinkedIn bubble.A practical playbook for building a speaking portfolio: podcast circuits as “reps,” becoming the backup speaker for local events, traveling cheap, and “build your own stage” so you can capture footage and prove you can hold a room.Fractional CRO lessons on seasonality, offering annual commitments with delayed payments instead of discounts, and selling based on reasonable CAC and CPL—like a virtual conference that drives 24,000 engaged leads at about $2.08 per lead.Real talk for agency founders burned out on cold ads and not seeing ROI from content yet: know your numbers, know your actual close rate, break down why you’re sad or anxious, go from “I need 10,000 people” to “I need four customers,” and move from anxiety to conviction so you can act.ㅤ🔗 Resources MentionedLinkedIn – Mason’s primary channel for connecting and sharing content.Scrappy ABM – “If you Google scrappy a BM, there’s a newsletter, there’s a podcast, there’s a website” with an “ungodly number of webinars.”HubSpot – Used in a barter arrangement for a HubSpot implementation and sales process training in exchange for PR and conference introductions.Website de-anonymization tools – Used to identify who is on the Scrappy ABM site so Mason can screenshot activity and directly ask, “Hey, something on our website that’s gonna be helpful?”BW MX – A conference where Mason has spoken for multiple years, including keynotes and three hour breakouts, and where he’s now considered a standing speaker.So guru conferences – The virtual conference business where Mason serves as a fractional CRO and sells sponsorships based on CPL and engaged leads.Scrappy ABM: Visit for more ABM tips and strategiesConnect with Mason on LinkedIn for a conversation about ABMㅤIf you enjoyed today’s episode and found valuable insights for your business, be sure to subscribe to the Scrappy ABM podcast for more expert discussions.

    Mapping Buying Groups, PLG Signals, and Real Channels That Your Target Accounts Actually Use (with Liam MacCormack) | Ep. 225
    Nov 20 2025
    Scrappy ABM returns with host Mason Cosby and guest Liam MacCormack, founder and solopreneur at Growth by Liam, breaking down how real account-based marketing gets built when the ACV is high, the deals are complex, and shortcuts fail. Liam starts at the only place that matters: historical closed won accounts, not guesses. He walks through a massive breakdown of who books demos, who joins calls, who gets added into the product in PLG motions, and how that activity builds a clear picture of the buying group.ㅤThe conversation moves into where those personas actually spend time, why LinkedIn audience assumptions fall apart, how Reddit and niche communities come into play, and why talking directly to happy customers beats any ad platform pitch. Mason and Liam press into problem content versus solution content, high-intent measurement signals beyond revenue alone, and the scrappy, manual, “pain in the ass” direct mail and gifting-style plays that stand out in a world of ignored cold emails and identical ads.ㅤ👤 Guest BioLiam MacCormack is the founder and solopreneur at Growth by Liam, partnering with early and growth-stage companies on growth programs across channels. In this conversation, he shares firsthand experience building account-based motions for enterprise and high-ACV deals, grounded in closed won data, buying group behavior, and real-world engagement signals from digital and offline channels.ㅤ📌 What We CoverHow Liam starts ABM and targeting with a massive breakdown of closed won accounts, demo bookers, call participants, and product users.Why PLG signals—like who opens free trials, who gets added to the account, and when executives show up—reveal real buying committees and conversion windows.The ACV reality check: when a $10K deal should not trigger a heavy ABM program and why enterprise and high-ACV motions justify one-to-one or one-to-few plays.Using Sales Navigator, posting activity, and real behavior to confirm if target personas are actually active on LinkedIn instead of trusting audience estimates.Talking directly to customers and target personas to learn where they discover solutions, including subreddits and niche communities that never show up in generic targeting.Balancing problem content and solution content so target accounts recognize their pain, see new ways to solve it, and understand specific use cases by industry and persona.Early indicators that ABM is working: target accounts visiting the site, consuming content, booking demos, and moving into real sales conversations long before deals close.The challenge of digital ad fatigue, ignored cold outreach, and how thoughtful direct mail-style plays and personalized touches create excitement, word-of-mouth, and executive-level association.The biggest miss Liam sees: teams skipping deep upfront research, failing to map each member of the buying group, and only speaking to the initial contact instead of every decision-maker.ㅤ🔗 Resources MentionedMason Cosby on LinkedInLiam MacCormack on LinkedInGrowth by Liam website: mentioned as Liam’s site for learning more about his workLinkedIn & Sales Navigator: for building and validating target account lists and activityReddit & subreddits: as real communities where specific personas learn and shareDirect mail-style campaigns and custom postcards: tactile plays to stand out with target accountsScrappy ABM: Visit for more ABM tips and strategiesConnect with Mason on LinkedIn for a conversation about ABMㅤIf you enjoyed today's episode and found valuable insights for your business, be sure to subscribe to the Scrappy ABM podcast for more expert discussions.
