A unique B2B path
The B2B customer journey is characterized by multiple decision-makers, longer sales cycles, and a focus on solving complex business challenges. It can be seen in four stages:
- Awareness: the journey begins when a business becomes aware of a problem or opportunity. Customers research and identify potential solutions.
- Consideration: once aware, businesses explore various options and evaluate potential solutions, comparing features, benefits and costs.
- Decision: a solution provider is selected, which may involve contract negotiations and stakeholder buy-in.
- Post-purchase: businesses assess the value they received from the solution, and may provide feedback. Building a long-term relationship here is critical to retain B2B clients.
