Seeing Both Sides

JULY 11, 2013

Across our portfolio and in my own entrepreneurial experience, I have seen three main sales models work successfully in scaling B2B sales: 1) Enterprise; 2) Telephone; and 3) Developer-driven. I''ll discuss each one below. 1) Enterprise Sales. It is all about (highly qualified) leads, leads, leads.

With your blog posts, white papers, eBooks, videos, slideshows and more all in one place, you can then organize it all into custom streams that give your audience a clear path to consume the content they want by topic, type or whatever you decide. The Uberflip platform starts with aggregating all the content you create and curate.

They’re part of the top three platforms for effective marketing—creating audio/visual content, white papers and article/blog content. Whether it’s B2B or B2C the goose that lays the golden egg is the website that consistently produces quality content, written, audio or visual.

HubSpot data points in the same direction: the most reliable indicator that a lead will convert into a customer is a request for a demo (46%) as compared to download a white paper for example (22%). Gerhard Gschwandtner pushed speakers to learn from B2C selling models: Amazon has $30 billion in sales with ZERO sales reps.

How should Facebook be used differently for a B2B marketer vs a B2C marketer? Have you heard of any good B2B case studies for Linkedin? For white papers, how do you “free your content&# so that people can get their hands on it across social networks if you’re used to requiring a lead form to be filled out?

And so it’s not just about creating eBooks and blog posts and white papers, and you know, all the things that, you know, we can add up and say, “Look at all the content we have.” Whereas LinkedIn has always been very B2B focused, very networking, very “I’m here to do business.”

And then they need to go and now they're gonna send a white paper or they're gonna send a video link, but they have to go to another system in order to grab that content, right? Is the paper bamboo? So consumers are, and B2B and B2C are starting to make decisions beyond the normal brand. Is the price fair?

And then finally, our shareable moment is kind of the advocate part of the buyer's journey is it's a swag store or it's content that you've created that they can share or those white papers. I think B2B companies in particular have probably been slower to come to this idea. I mean I think a lot of B2C companies kind of get that.

Business software is different and shouldn’t be treated in the same way as B2C. lincolnmurphy is probably the expert on Freemium in SaaS and he wrote a brilliant white paper on the subject- you should check it out! I can remember a number of sources for similar numbers (they may be higher for B2B).
