How do B2B businesses find clients? They have marketing and sales teams, of course. But if you reverse the question, the response is not so obvious: Your B2B marketing and sales teams find clients, but how do clients find you? 41% of B2B buyers read three to five content pieces before engaging with a sales representative. In response, B2B businesses are making their brand and expertise more visible by producing the valuable educational content buyers are actively looking for. And...
Competition is fierce for B2B marketers. Buyers conduct their research anonymously, deftly avoiding your best lead-capturing tricks. Closing a deal means winning over an entire purchasing team, not just one or two key decision-makers. To connect with potential customers and bring successful close sales, you have to adapt your approach to meet the needs of today's buyers by using account-based marketing (ABM) techniques backed up with artificial intelligence and big data. With more than 70% of sellers purporting to have...
Buyers call the shots in the highly competitive world of online B2B sales. The best way for B2B sellers to hold their attention is to show them that you really, truly get them. That means understanding their big-picture pain points and feature wish list, of course, but also who the people behind the company are, how they like to make their purchasing decisions, and where they're at in their buyer journey. To reach buyers at this level, you need an...
Monitoring the sales processes for your business isn't easy. There's so much data to collect, so many metrics to track, and even more answers to find. But what if you could optimize your B2B sales pipeline to gain better visibility over your prospects' buying journeys or deal stages? Tracking the deal stages in your sales pipeline isn't just essential for maximizing conversions. The data you gather can also help you forecast, set KPIs, and ensure that your sales team feels...
For B2B marketers, the big question about sales funnels is: do you prefer your funnel right-side up or upside down? In the traditional lead generation model, you seek to bring in lots of leads through the top of the funnel, nurturing them down to the narrow end where you're left with a few well-qualified leads ready to convert. With account-based marketing, you start with one carefully-selected lead at the top, identify the key decision-makers you need to win over, and...
In this edition of The Journey newsletter, we’re about to shine a light on the dark buyer journey. More specifically, we’ll share data about how many touch points, sessions and page reads do buyers actually go through before sharing their real contact information. Flying Blind A 2022 Gartner CMO survey found that 67% find that orchestrating buyer journeys today is significantly more complex and difficult than just a few years ago. It’s a bit puzzling considering that marketers today have...
For many B2B companies, account-based marketing is one of the most effective ways to cultivate high-quality leads. However, your marketing system's advantages can evaporate if you hand these leads off to a sales team that hasn't fully adapted to an account-based strategy. The solution is to make sure they use a complementary approach: account-based sales. Account-based marketing (ABM) has been around for a long time, but big data has ushered in a true renaissance for this marketing method. In 2021,...
Many successful B2B companies are embracing the idea of working smarter, not harder. It's become clear that there must be a better solution than casting a wide net with your marketing efforts to herd leads into your funnel and hoping that one or two will emerge as customers at the other end. Now, sellers are adopting Account-Based Marketing (ABM) as their strategy of choice. Seven out of ten marketers use ABM, and 87% say that it outperforms their other marketing...
In this edition of The Journey, we decided to take a closer look at the levels of interaction a typical B2B buyer has on your website.
