The idea behind the job of a sales representative is simple: help your customer find the best solution that fits their needs. However this task is a lot harder in a B2B environment in which companies are often struggling to explain complex products. This is where guided selling comes into play, a powerful strategy to regain control over your solution offering.

The alignment of marketing and sales is a key component for your company’s growth. You can no longer afford a misalignment of the two departments to meet the buyer’s needs at every interaction.

Let’s look at some of the trends we can expect in 2021 for B2B Sales in 5 fitting strategies.

Keep your customers happy. That is up to this day the main thing account managers focus on. That is why, after its massive success, a lot of B2B companies have followed the B2C trend of eCommerce. Digital tools have proven to be highly effective, in case companies know how to implement them correctly. If done wrong, it creates a bad customer experience, which remains a main strategic point for any manufacturer: around 9 out of 10 buyers would turn to a competitor if their current supplier could not keep up with their needs (Avionos, 2020).
