What are typical mistakes in B2B customer acquisition?

03/03/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

When it comes to B2B customer acquisition, there are several mistakes that companies often make. Here are some typical mistakes:

Lack of target audience analysis: if you don't know exactly who your target audience is, you can't develop an effective acquisition strategy. A lack of target audience analysis often leads to you spending time and money on the wrong marketing channels and wasting your resources.

Too low lead quality: if you only focus on quick leads and don't qualify them well enough, this can lead to a low conversion rate. Take time to understand your prospects' needs so you can make sure you can actually help them.

Incorrect focus on sales pitches: When you focus solely on sales pitches during B2B customer acquisition, it can turn off potential customers. Instead, focus on how you can help customers solve their problems.

Poor follow-up strategy: if you don't keep in touch with potential customers, it can lead to a loss of the leads you've already acquired. Have a clear follow-up strategy to ensure that potential customers are not forgotten and stay in your mind.

Not enough patience: B2B customer acquisition requires patience and perseverance. It may take time before you see results, so it's important not to give up and keep at it.
