5 Steps to Build B2B Revenue
We get it. Converting leads into customers in any market is difficult, but if you are a B2B company, you have the short end of the stick. And if you are a B2B selling high ticket items, it might even feel like you never got a stick.
There are two parts to your problem. The first is that your audience is a smaller, very specific, high-net worth audience. This is the ultimate B2B catch-22. Your items have a high margin so you don’t need many conversions to make a huge difference, but attaining conversions is harder for you than B2C counterparts.
