MarTech QnA with the Expert
At its core, modern-day marketing is focused on buyers and their buying journey. It is inspiring to see that marketing professionals today are increasingly focused on engaging with buyers at every step of that journey. Marketers are also realizing that B2B buying decisions are not made by an individual buyer, but rather a group of buyers that influence the buying decision together.
