3 Strategies to Close B2B Website Leads

Every B2B website lead that comes in from a contact form submission needs to be your sales team’s number one priority. These inbound leads are of extreme importance and should be handled with care and diligence.

In this post, we share our best practices to help your sales team close more B2B website leads and increase your bottom line.

Leverage Your B2B Website

Your company invested in a modern, professional B2B website design that generates quality leads – congratulations! This is a feat in itself as there are plenty of companies with outdated, barely functioning websites. Utilize your polished B2B website to establish yourself as an industry expert who can solve the problem of your inquiring lead.

In your initial response to the lead, include 2 – 3 links to helpful content on your website.

Continue sending your prospect links to relevant information on your company’s website as you nurture the lead through the decision-making process. The goal is to build rapport while continuing to leverage your B2B website with specific information that speaks to their needs or questions.

Use Content to Establish Yourself as an Expert

One way to close more deals is to reach out to this informed lead immediately. Keep in mind, this person spent enough time on your B2B website to realize you can help solve their company’s issue. Use relevant case studies from your website to demonstrate your ability to problem-solve and listen.

Case studies will get you through the door, but you need to build a relationship with the prospect. The first step to building a working relationship is to listen. Listen to the person’s pain points and challenges. Be sure to listen closely so you hear all of their concerns. Listen without thinking about what’s for dinner or who is up in the series. After hearing the prospect voice their reason for seeking out your solution, use 2 or 3 content pieces in your response to demonstrate your ability to listen and understand what they need.
