Global Vice President of Customer Science at LinkedIn & Global Head of the B2B Institute (Combining the power of Data, Technology & Behavioral Science to create breakthrough results for our customers & agency clients)
One of the most important jobs marketers have is to build trust. And when it comes to B2B marketing this is even more important. Why? Because decisions often carry higher stakes, longer cycles, and involve multiple stakeholders. Without trust, the process stalls. I recently spoke at LinkedIn’s flagship B2Believe event in London about one of the most effective ways to establish trust among B2B buyers (see below).

💡 In B2B marketing, the fundamental unit of purchase decision-making is the Buyer Group. In other words, getting the different members of the Buyer Group to agree on a specific vendor is what has to happen to close a deal. LinkedIn partnered with Bain & Company and NewtonX to research the main drivers of Buyer Group decision-making. We found that [1] being known across the Buyer Group of a target account and [2] being trusted by the marketplace were the most important dimensions when being bought. 🎯 81% of purchases were made of vendors that everyone or almost everyone in the Buyer Group knew on Day One. 🎯 Only 4% of final purchases that were made were of vendors/products that only the expert recommenders knew. 🎯 Buyer Group members will pay more for products that their colleagues already know (by a ratio of 3:1), because your colleagues knowing about a vendor makes it a less risky choice. 🎯 Buyer Groups will not fight for products that their colleagues don't know, even if they think that product is better (3:1) because persuading colleagues to take a risk is more difficult than sacrificing potential functionality/quality. 🎯 All other things (like price and product quality) being equal, Buyer Groups will pick a well-known product/vendor over ones that are less well-known (3:1), because less well-known vendors were harder for the group to agree on. 🎯 The further away you are from technical knowledge of the product in your Buyer Group role, the more you rely on brand factors to shape your decision-making. Legal, finance, HR and Procurement, for example, have huge influence here and are much more influenced by brand than product experts and users. We feel our findings open up a few new ways of thinking about how to be successful in B2B marketing and selling - and show the role played by brand in every live sales process. Brand is not just an investment in getting bought in the future. It is a form of decision-insurance and risk-mitigation that makes it one of the main reasons that products get bought right now.
