Title: Evolving B2B Strategies with Esources
1Evolving B2B Strategies with Esources
2Have you ever wondered how a car manufacturer
sources steel sheets for its car bodies? They
do not send a salesperson to a particular sheet
manufacturer for an order of this magnitude. In
such scenarios, companies rely on what is called
Business-to-Business or B2B marketing. B2B
techniques rely on the same tactics as B2C or
Business-to-Consumer marketing. While in B2C, a
consumer chooses a product based on price,
popularity, and emotional considerations, B2B
buyers make decisions on technical specifications
in addition to price and company background.
3- Let us be clear on who employs B2B marketing
- B2B marketing is largely made use of by
organizations that make products that are of no
use to general consumers. - Such products can include steel sheets, aluminum
coils, automotive axles, and more. - The customers that are targeted in B2B include
- Construction companies, automotive companies,
petrochemical industries, and similar
organizations - Government agencies
- Institutions like schools and hospitals

As we are now into 2017, it would be interested
to speculate what trends will drive B2B
marketing this year and beyond.
6Here are a few trends which we can think
of. Marketing automation Marketing automation
is one area that has not been fully leveraged by
companies. Marketing automation means an
automated way of nurturing leads with the right
content. A few of the strategies to enhance
marketing automation can include, use or
re-marketing, or third party websites to foster
prospects that are showing interest in a product
or service.
7- Web personalization
- Web personalization means customization of a
websites content to suit a specific users
needs. - This is already a well-established technique in
ecommerce sites but yet not taken up in full
earnest within the B2B arena. - Presently, there are numerous SaaS products that
are making web personalization more affordable
for smaller organizations.
