This document discusses the rise of social purchasing and community-oriented buying decisions. It introduces community-oriented chief procurement officers (CPOs) and analyzes 56 existing B2B purchasing communities. These communities are classified using an eight-dimension "bike wheel model" and plotted on a matrix based on popularity/usage and openness. The document then outlines a five-step process for designing and developing a new CPO community, including defining strategic objectives, governance roles, community design, management, and assessment. The overall aim is to understand how social purchasing communities can provide benefits to buyers.

This presents marketers with a new set of challenges. They must employ creative ways to engage potential customers and convert them into leads, such as taking advantage of non-traditional digital channels to generate awareness and influence. The corporate website is the pivotal touch point, becoming a “virtual” sales rep to deepen the relationship with prospects who aren’t ready to take a sales call. Having the right content and offering a rich, engaging experience become imperative marketing goals.
