B2B businesses have to nurture customers through a complex buyer’s journey. Unlike in typical B2C retail, these customers often have multiple decision-makers who need to agree on purchases. There’s usually a longer time between the initial interest phase and the actual sale. From a business point of view, this means B2B companies need specialized software to streamline their marketing and lead-nurturing processes so they can keep different prospects engaged from beginning to end.
