Reality of B2B Web Site Traffic

15% Web Visitors from Target Accounts

85% Web Visitors from People that Will Never Buy

Do not optimize for the average

Focus on customer traffic, not visitors

95% of your future revenue will come from less than 5% of your web site traffic.

Market Trend Summary

1) Web Sites are becoming a platform for customer engagement… no longer just online brochures.

2) To optimize for revenue, you have to understand what accounts, not visitors, are doing on your web site and more effectively engage them.

3) New technologies are being developed for B2B to take advantage of the changing buyer habits.

2) B2B marketing is different than B2C and requires different approaches and technologies

3) Buyer 2.0 will spend more time on site before engaging sales …. Pay special attention to this 5%

4) Think “Platform” vs. marketing tools and the interaction between solutions when developing your strategy

5) Start with a customer targeting and lifecycle strategy and continuously measure and test against this audience.
