Editor's Notes
Extensive B2B buying pattern studies reveal that in the awareness phase, 65.3 % of users preferred to start their research with a general search engine. That number dropped to 51.8 % during the research phase, 42.1 % in negotiation phase, and to 42.6 % during the final purchase phase. These studies found that during the researching phase, a purchaser is 5 times more likely to turn to a general search engine for information than a specific B2B search engine. As B2B buyers enter the later research phase and start gathering information for the final negotiations, many prefer to use relevant industry sites or B2B search engines.
