Watch “Data Center Lead Generation 101” (Webinar Recording)
For Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Product, and Channel Partnership Professionals in the Data Center Industry
People in the data center industry have completely changed how they research and make purchase decisions.
Is your lead generation strategy keeping up with these massive changes?
It doesn’t matter whether your company provides colocation, edge, modular, hyperscale, technology, facilities, construction, or real estate. Your buyers are in the driver’s seat and no longer want to spend much time with your sales team until they’re very close to purchasing.Gartner found that as much as 83% of the buyer’s journey -- researching, comparing options, and evaluating pricing -- now happens before you even meet a prospect.
This massive change in buyer behaviors -- where prospects have essentially rejected your sales overtures -- has frustrated many old-school sales and marketing teams.
But these changes present enormous, game-changing market share opportunities for those who can get found early -- as trusted advisors.
Just as important, those companies that are winning have figured out a lead generation playbook for owning most of the 28 typical touchpoints between a stranger and a significant purchase.
And if you think lead generation is a marketing problem that your marketing team can magically fix on their own, think again.
With today’s data center buyers, marketers must get involved much deeper into the buyer’s journey than in the past. On the flip side, sales professionals must take an active role in the full buyer’s journey -- much earlier than they would have before.
