What is B2B marketing?

Written by Foleon | Sep 5, 2025 7:03:00 AM

Business-to-business (B2B) marketing is about how companies sell products or services to other companies—not individual consumers. Think software providers working with universities, or healthcare platforms serving hospitals. The focus is on building long-term relationships, not quick one-time sales.

Unlike business-to-consumer (B2C) marketing, which aims to spark impulse buys, B2B marketing speaks to decision-makers who need data, proof, and value. These buyers research deeply, involve multiple stakeholders, and expect content that’s both informative and engaging.

That’s why effective B2B marketing isn’t just about pushing information. It’s about creating content experiences that educate, build trust, and move prospects through complex buying journeys. From white papers and case studies to interactive proposals and digital magazines, every touchpoint has to answer one big question: Why should we choose you over the competition?
