Join Maike as she presents the session "Rethinking B2B Marketing: Moving Beyond Traditional Campaigns". With 80% of B2B businesses struggling to see results from their marketing efforts, Maike will delve into the challenges of B2B marketing in the current era, where traditional campaigns are not always the way to go. Explore the reasons behind the struggles, such as a lack of understanding of the market, generic advice, and limited budgets. Maike will provide insights on how to overcome these challenges by moving beyond traditional campaigns and taking a data-driven, always-on approach. Learn about the importance of data-based strategies, always-on content marketing, and understanding the impact of "dark social" interactions on the fragmented buying journey.
