B2B sellers wish for only one thing over all: clarity!
Clarity on what they are selling, whom they are selling. And the answers to all these questions lie in harnessing the untamed power of B2B sales intelligence encompassing a wide variety of insights obtained across their target accounts, industries, and buyer profiles.
They need clear insights on:
. Which accounts to target
. The buying propensity of their target accounts
. Who are the buying committee members in an account
. Which persona to engage at an account
. The pain points and buying intent of the persona
With companies capturing data from multiple disparate sources- B2B database providers, marketing & sales stacks, CRMs, etc., it is critical for the GTM teams to move away from data overreach to an intelligence-driven mindset.
Here are 5 ways in which B2B enterprises can convert buyer insights into revenue:
-
1
Uncover in-market accounts
One scary truth for any B2B sales team is that only 10% of their TAM is in-market at any given time. Without visibility into this 10% of in-market accounts, sellers end up chasing dead leads, losing customers to competitors. AI-powered B2B sales intelligence lifts the veil on the ‘dark funnel’- tracking activities of an account signaling when it's in-market.
These signals include:
• Website visits
• New sales and marketing initiatives
• Comparing vendors to your products/services
• Researching products/services or topics based on your industry -

Spotting key decision-makers within in-market accounts
Once an account is identified as in-market, the next step is to throw light on the buying committee members and key decision-makers to engage. With accurate and updated buyer intelligence, companies can build personalized outreach cadence for each individual buyer at each target account.
These insights include:
• Buyer profile
• Experience
• Title
• Interests
• Pain points
• Contact database
• Website activities
• Social media engagements -

Harmonizing sales and marketing efforts

With a unified B2B sales intelligence solution, both marketing and sales can feed from the same set of company and contact database to build hyper-personalized messaging from marketing-qualified lead stage to sales-qualified lead stage and deal conversions.
