19. “What everyone’s dealing with is not B2B or B2C,
it’s B2I, or business to individual.
Increasingly that’s how we’re buying, whether it’s because somebody’s
told us something on Facebook or because we’re part of a community
that shares our views.
We’re scouring sites like Trip Advisor. We’re all on LinkedIn.
We’re making choices that are not easily influenced
by a piece of paper coming through the door,
because we are picking up influences through so many channels”.
