"If your company isn't keeping up with these B2B Lead Generation changes, then there's a high chance that your lead generation efforts, and consequently, your sales efforts are taking a pretty hard hit.

A solid lead generation effort focuses not just on getting the attention of a prospective customer, but also on the nurturing and customer retention strategies that every b2b company must have to grow successfully.

B2B lead generation often uses digital channels. Recently the use of these channels has been going through a transformation from social media channels to the new 'self-directed buyer' that is emerging today..."

"Sales teams need a proper structure and productive processes to help them move their prospects through the sales funnel with ease.

If you want consistent growth and revenue, you will need to decide what sales team structure is best for your business. You will also need a strategy that helps you to build a great sales team that fits within your company goals and structure..."

"Many B2B sales organizations are now working 100% remotely, some for the first time. Even if your business already was working from home part-time, or even if your B2B sales people are accustomed to having a lot of independence in how they work, the current crisis has caused many companies to feel a sense of disconnectedness. How can you keep your sales team's cohesiveness and company culture going strong if you're all working remotely?..."

"By organizing information from various customer-facing teams (marketing, sales, customer service, etc.) into one place, CRM software makes sure a company's employees have access to the same efficiently organized, real-time information.

vBeers@Boca is sponsored by TechLauderdale:

• "TechLauderdale promotes the growth, connectivity, and awareness of the thriving technology ecosystem in Greater Fort Lauderdale"

Hosted by John J. McLaughlin

As leaders we need to excel in communication, and that includes having difficult conversations. Have you ever been in a situation where you know you need to address negative behaviors or missed deliverables, and you feel it will be so uncomfortable it actually impacts your ability to sleep? If yes, you're not alone.

Conducting a difficult conversation is quite frankly, difficult. As a result, we frequently let it fall to the bottom of our 'to do' list, which only makes the situation worse (and allows our own anxiety to grow!).

Here are some tips:

The eMerge Americas 2020 conference previously scheduled for March 30-31st at the Miami Beach Convention Center in Miami Beach, FL, is postponed to November 4-5, 2020 due to global precautions for the COVID-19 Coronavirus, the state of Florida's public health emergency declaration, and building upon recommendations from the World Health Organization.

We're committed to the health and wellbeing of our attendees, partners, and the community as a whole. This decision follows careful consideration, and this postponement will enable us to provide the experience that our customers, partners, and employees expect and deserve in a safe environment.

We look forward to holding our 2020 conference later this year with an extraordinary lineup of keynote speakers and participating investors, startups and government officials.
