How does B2B marketing differ from B2C marketing?
| Answer: B2B marketing is focused on selling products and services to other businesses, while B2C marketing is focused on selling products and services to individual consumers. B2B marketing typically involves longer sales cycles, higher ticket prices, and more complex decision-making processes than B2C marketing. Additionally, B2B marketers often need to target multiple decision makers within an organization, while B2C marketers typically target individual consumers. As a result, B2B marketers often need to create more detailed and targeted content than B2C marketers. |
