Online marketing strategy for B2B companies

Effective B2B marketing starts with a clear strategy

Online marketing for B2B is complex – it’s not just about reaching customers, but about convincing decision-makers. That’s why a well-thought-out strategy is essential for building long-term business relationships and achieving sustainable growth.

Since 2005, we’ve supported companies from a wide range of industries – from wholesale suppliers of electrical and sanitary systems to plastic packaging, and industrial printers, warehouse and office equipment, as well as business coaching. Each of these industries has its own challenges, unique sales cycles, and specific target audiences.

What we’ve learned is clear: Every company needs a tailored marketing strategy. A one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work in B2B. While some companies achieve the best results with LinkedIn Ads and content marketing, others benefit more from SEO, lead nurturing, or performance campaigns.

Our strength lies in identifying the right channels for your business and developing a strategy that aligns perfectly with your goals. With our experience and data-driven methods, we make your B2B marketing predictable, measurable, and successful.

What is an example of B2B marketing?

An example of B2B marketing is a software company offering an ERP solution for medium-sized businesses. Instead of advertising to end customers, it focuses on LinkedIn campaigns, SEO for industry topics, whitepapers, and webinars to directly target managing directors and IT managers and acquire them as clients.

What is B2C2B? Do we, as a B2B agency, also offer B2C2B solutions
