Harnessing marketing automation for B2B content marketing
Harnessing marketing automation for B2B content marketing
This study investigates the organizational processes for developing
valuable and timely content to meet customer needs and for
integrating content marketing with B2B selling processes.
The results of this single case study demonstrate the use of marketing
automation to generate high quality sales leads through behavioral
targeting and content personalization.
B2B digital content marketing
“B2B digital content marketing involves creating,
distributing and sharing relevant, compelling and timely
content to engage customers at the appropriate point in their
buying consideration processes, such that it encourages them
to convert to a business building outcome.”
Objectives of study
1.It advances knowledge on the organizational processes of
B2B content marketing in terms of creating and delivering
timely and valuable content based on customer needs.
2.The study examines ways in which content marketing
strategies may be combined with B2B selling processes via
marketing automation and the benefits and challenges of such
an approach.
Objectives of study
3.The study contributes to ongoing discussions on marketing
and sales alignment in the B2B sector by illustrating ways in
which marketing and sales systems may be integrated
through advancements in IT.
Marketing automation
Marketing automation exploits both active and passive means
of learning about potential buyers. Active approaches involve
directly asking questions, and passive approaches involve
utilizing information on past transactions or clickstream data
(Montgomery & Srinivasan,2003).
Sales funnel framework.
(adapted from D'Haen & Van den Poel, 2013)
Discussion
• Content marketing serves as an effective means of
attracting suspects who are motivated to identify themselves.
•The study also showed that integrating content marketing
and marketing automation efforts can generate high-quality
sales leads and increase efficiency levels by overcoming a
cumbersome selection process for prospects.
Discussion
• Behavioral tracking of marketing automation expedites the lead
qualification process by signaling prospect interest in particular
products, which is often considered to be the most important element
of genuine purchase intentions.
• This finding corroborates evidence that lead qualification can be
supported by web data and through the use of its tools.
• The study presents a novel illustration of a marketing and sales
process wherein marketing and sales efforts are coordinated as two
facets of the same funnel (i.e., a marketing and sales funnel).
