The B2B Growth Engine You Can’t Ignore

B2B marketing has changed fast.

The pandemic accelerated digital buying.

Now, inbound marketing leads the way.

Buyers Want Value, Not Cold Pitches

Inbound marketing attracts customers by providing value. It’s not about cold calls or ads. It’s about helpful, relevant content that builds trust.

According to McKinsey (2022), over 75% of B2B buyers prefer digital self-serve or remote interaction.

Buyers want control and do their own research first.

Personalization Is No Longer Optional

They also expect personalization. Salesforce (2022) reports that 56% of customers expect offers to be personalized. Many companies still struggle to meet this expectation.

Smart Content Drives Growth

Great inbound marketing focuses on education. It answers buyers' questions and solves their problems.

The Content Marketing Institute (2023) found that 71% of B2B marketers increased content investments after 2020.

But they focus on quality — 83% prefer fewer, better pieces.

Top formats include thought leadership, webinars, interactive tools, and case studies.
