B2B Marketing During & After a Pandemic

What You’ll Learn in this White Paper

In September of 2020, 50% of CMOs still believed it would take 1-2 years until marketing-driven sales returned to pre-pandemic levels. But the actual results of B2B companies who invested heavily in digital marketing in Q3 and Q4 of 2020 show that these expectations were – to be blunt – absolutely wrong!

In this whitepaper, we explore the most common digital marketing techniques employed by successful B2B companies during the pandemic.

We show examples, insights, and tips on how you can use these same tactics like a pro in 2021.

What the pandemic marketing made clear is that one tactic in particular, called Account Based Marketing, produces the highest return on investment for B2B companies.

Use this white paper to ramp up your Account Based Marketing strategy in order to produce quantifiable results for your organization.
