You have developed a new product or offer a new service and are now looking for customers. Without proactively addressing potential new customers on all channels, you will fail sooner or later as a B2B service provider, because: No matter how much online advertising you place expensively, the number of potential leads via search engine marketing is very limited compared to B2C business and is usually not enough to cover your costs in the first place. Therefore, deal comprehensively with the topics of cold calling, advertising letters & lettershop as well as customer acquisition via LinkedIn, Facebook and social media.
Most of your eventual buyers are NOT currently looking for
No matter how great your product or service is, most of the customer groups you have in mind won't need it. Don't expect the number of searches on Google and other search engines to be enough to get enough leads from which you could generate any customers at all. In reality, over 80% of your potential customers are not currently actively searching for your product or service, and therefore not Googling for it. So the only way you will reach these customer groups is through a phone call or letter.
The price is NOT the central decision criterion for your customer
The actual price charged is secondary in terms of your customer's buying decision. More important is to clearly present the benefits of your product or service to the customer in spé and build trust. Address the individual needs, which can be not only the current, but also the future needs of the customer, and see where the shoe pinches, or where problems and potential for improvement lie.
Make sure that potential customers get information on your website
Most of your website visitors are gone faster than you can look. You've invested thousands of euros in redesigning your website? Congratulations, but you would have been better off investing that money in telephone sales. Often, your website is only called up and visited a few times after the successful initial contact and your offer is scrutinized before a positive purchase decision is made. You should therefore make sure that you collect the contact details of prospective customers, e.g. through a newsletter registration, request via contact form incl. the declaration of consent for a later contact.
Most buyers of your products will NOT use them
If you have managed to convince your potential customer of the benefits of your product or services (by identifying and addressing their pain points) and have created a level of trust through communication, the customer will buy - regardless of whether they currently need the product or will use it in the future. The average B2B customer typically buys an opportunity, potential, tool, or even a way to improve his situation, situation, or opportunities that he will want to access and benefit from in the future when he will actually need it. In this sense, he is buying an additional item in his arsenal.
A few of your potential customers are swimming in money, but most are not far from insolvency
Make sure that your offer is aimed at a clientele that is solvent enough to pay the prices charged - and on time. Nothing is more annoying than unpaid invoices, chargebacks and avoidable reminders. Depending on the scope of your service, installment payments or monthly lump sums may be an option. In addition to the option for customers to order on account, you should also offer payments via PayPal, Klarna (formerly Sofortüberweisung) and possibly by credit card. However, note here that additional costs arise.
Without networking and personal network you will not be successful
Without referrals from actual customers who, in good conscience, introduce your products and services to acquaintances and friends entrepreneurs, agency owners or other self-employed and freelancers, you will not grow sustainably. Referral marketing should be a central part of your marketing strategy. Therefore, also consider setting up your own affiliate program to benefit from the network effect.

Overview & Search screen:
Figure 1 shows the backend area of the master table with search and filter mask (top of image), where you can, for example, list the radio stations included in Germany or further filter and sort by more than 20 filter criteria (including city, state, country, title, relevance/reach for prioritization, editorial email address, editorial phone number, fax number, type, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Xing, number of Wikipedia views). Searching by keyword or tag is also possible.
A right click with the mouse on a cell value in the table (e.g. city) opens a list with all entries of this feature. A normal click (left click) with the mouse on a symbol opens the stored entry (e.g. the Facebook profile) in a popup window or controls the search function at Xing or LinkendIn for journalists or editors as well as departments to quickly find concrete contacts in the editorial offices.
A mouse click on an icon or feature while holding down the Ctrl key, on the other hand, opens the corresponding feature as a new browser tab in the background.
Figure 1: Master table "Overview & Search" with search mask. When mouse-over the title of a medium, you will get a short description of the same, if a Wikipedia article is available for the medium.
The bulk functions (engl. mass editing; see checkboxes on the left of the image) allow you - as you are used to from your email provider, for example - to edit several of the selected entries simultaneously (per page between 5 and 1. 000 entries displayable), to open the stored media URLs or further stored features such as Facebook presences in new tabs in the background, to add to favorites list or watchlist, to remove personally stored information again as well as to export the entries & contact data of the selected editorial offices in CSV or JSON format.
To be able to send an email without export directly and individually to an editorial office with your email program, simply click on the corresponding email address, which opens your email program or a new window there.
Clicking on the name of the medium opens the detail view of an entry. Here you will find a short description in the form of the Wikipedia article with useful information such as reach and target audience of the selected medium with all links to the social media channels and the contact details of the editors. Furthermore, you also have the option here to rate the medium, to put it on a list, to create your own lists (e.g. to-do list, campaign list "Campaign X in period Y"), to deposit your own comments and notes for documentation purposes of the communication that has taken place or the contact that has been made incl. feedback.
