The reality is that 95% of B2B prospects aren’t ready to buy today. B2B demand generation can go a long way toward positioning your company front and center for when they are.
Demand generation focuses on building awareness and interest at the top of the funnel—long before a prospect engages with you—while lead generation sharpens that interest, guiding prospects toward conversion.
When aligned, demand and lead generation form a powerful synergy, consistently filling your pipeline with qualified, purchase-ready prospects. This approach not only strengthens your competitive edge but also drives business growth and fosters widespread interest in your offerings.
By educating and nurturing prospects over time, you can address their objections and provide them with the information they need to make informed decisions when the time comes to make a purchase.
Capturing and qualifying leads early in the buying process allows your sales team to engage with prospects at the right time, in the right place, and with the right message to accelerate the conversion from lead to customer.
Fill your pipeline with qualified leads for the long haul
A cohesive demand and lead generation process will systematically attract, engage, and nurture potential customers.
Demand generation focuses on building brand awareness, staying in front of your target audience, and maintaining their interest in your offering, whereas lead generation focuses on converting that audience. This continuous audience engagement results in a consistent amount of leads coming into the pipeline for the sales team to close.
Effective demand and lead generation focuses on creating interest in your offering and nurturing prospects until they are ready to purchase.
This way, your sales team can avoid wasting time chasing cold leads in the hopes of sparking interest. Instead, when prospects are ready to buy, they'll already know your company and come directly to you to solve their challenges.
Be better positioned to outperform competitors, grow your business, and build interest in your offering.
