Excerpt...

 

Business spending has seen “modest growth” over the last few years, reports Epsilon in its 2014 Multichannel Trend Report [download page], with spending increasing by 3% since 2011. But online product sales are increasing more rapidly, up by almost 8% between 2011 and 2013; online sales (versus mail order/call center) have grown to represent roughly 65% of all sales last year, representing close to a 5% point increase in share from 2011. The study also identifies the industries and categories seeing the biggest increases in spend.

Visionary: Looking into the crystal ball to find the edge in the marketplace and communicate short and long term goalsStrong Ego: Creativity is important but confidence to rise above the cynics is critical to implement your visionRisk Taker: Differentiation is needed for success. Taking risks, being fearless of failure, and learning from actions is how innovation occurs. Acting and failing today is often more valuable than delaying and missing an opportunity tomorrow. We learn from our failures, inaction isn’t as quite as forgivingSimplistic: “Less is more” but not always easier. Simplification is difficult but in today’s market, there is no other way“Ear to the Ground” Mentality: Representing the voice of the customer – the CMO must understand their wants and needs to tailor the best strategy for the ever-changing, culturally diverse, global customerAce of all Trades: As we continue to see IT and Marketing converge, the CMO needs to understand what makes other departments tick and speak their language. By 2017, the CMO will spend more on IT than the CIO and needs to be an expert outside of MarketingTech-Savvy: Speed kills and understanding the technical landscape allows the CMO to not only develop a strategy, but also see the project through from end to end – rather than handing it off to the CIOData Driven: Big Data has taken business by storm and is the ultimate treasure chest of information. Transforming it into Smart Data is the key that unlocks the goldRevenue Focused: Bells and whistles are great, so are fancy commercials but at the end of the day, nothing is more important than increasing revenue. Understanding the value of each initiative is a critical piece toward becoming a best run businessCross Departmental Liaison: “Marketing is the connective tissue between sales and product teams with the voice of the customer at the center” said Nick Besbeas, VP of Marketing at LinkedIn. Each team is critical in its own way, but to provide the best experience for the customer, the CMO needs to ensure integration

Disrupting B2B Markets Does Not Happen Overnight - Gartner

Disrupting B2B Markets Does Not Happen Overnight - Gartner | B2B OP TBS | Scoop.it

Digest...

 

In the B2B world, most innovations have implications far beyond the purchase.  People have to be retrained, systems have to be updated, processes have to be adapted, and more.   Additionally, in the destructive phase, someone (often the person who made the original purchase recommendation) has to make the case for early replacement.   That is not an easy position to take, with its significant political ramifications.

 

When you look at all these factors, you can see why B2B disruptions often take several years before they reach critical mass.   This should be reflected in your strategies.   Progress is critical, but focus on the best way to achieve that progress.   Get some wins from traditional competitive procurements.  Target new buyers that have been on the sidelines since there is less emotional and organizational “baggage.”  For destructive opportunities, focus your energies on one or two competitors and implement strategies to ease the transition from them to you.

Key excerpt from the Forrester study...

 

Meet more demands with fewer resources. These marketing leaders are being asked to take on extraordinary new responsibilities, like crafting social media policy and setting new hiring standards across the organization. But the cost is high, since 89% of respondents say that they must do this without change in budget or resources.
