📥 B2B Digital Selling Tactics That Work In 2025

In 2025, B2B buyers research, compare, and interact across more channels than ever before. Relying on cold calls or a single weekly social media post is unlikely to spark a steady stream of leads. Businesses need an approach tuned to each platform - one that builds trust and invites prospects to engage when they’re ready...

📬 Friday, August 22, 2025

Guess who’s back, back again. It’s Friday, tell a friend! If you’re a math guy or gal, August 22nd means we’ve got 35% of the year left. ✏️ Not much time to make huge impacts with the upcoming holiday seasons, but plenty of time to make meaningful contributions to shoot for your goals and budgets. 🚀

Here’s what you missed this week while you were out selling and growing your business:

1) B2B Sales Require A ‘Holistic” Selling Approach, Study Finds 🌿

Global business-to-business (B2B) sales are expected to reach $36 trillion in 2026, with about a third of that happening within the United States alone. However, the foundational elements of B2B selling are changing significantly in response to shifting buyer behavior, according to a new study…Read more here. 👈🏼

📎 Sales Tip(s) of The Week:

Success in SALES is simply a choice in actions.

Sure, experience can make a huge difference in someone’s productivity or output, but a simple choice of actions truly makes or breaks sales professionals.

Which Rep do you think will ultimately have sustained, longer-term success dictated by their actions?

Rep A: “Hmm, I’ve got nothing on my calendar for the next two hours, I think I’ll grab a long lunch.”

Rep B: “Hmm, I’ve got nothing on my calendar for the next two hours. I’ll grab a quick lunch and make a handful of cold calls around the area of my next meeting.”

Pretty obvious, right?

Everyone deserves a long lunch from time to time, but your choice of actions in SALES, or really in any part of life, dictates your success.

2) How To Transition From Founder-Led Sales: Why Most Get It Wrong And How To Get It Right 🤷🏼‍♂️

Most founders screw this up. They either bail too early, looking to step out of sales as soon as possible, and watch conversion rates plummet, or they hold on too long and become the bottleneck that kills their growth. After watching hundreds of B2B companies navigate this transition, there’s the playbook that works…Read more here. 👈🏼

🔑 Sales Stat of The Week:

“42% of salespeople rank prospecting as the hardest part of their job, ahead of closing deals (36%) and qualifying leads (22%).” (Hubspot)

Why is prospecting considered hard? Can it be scary or intimidating? Is it time-consuming? Does it take a little planning to prospect effectively? Yes, yes, and yes. But do you know what separates the businesses (or sales reps) that grow and/or hit quotas from those that don’t?

Prospecting. And filling the top of your funnel with new leads and opportunities.

📊 Weekly Financial Forecast:

Federal Reserve officials worried at their July meeting about the state of the labor market and inflation, though most agreed that it was too soon to lower interest rates, minutes released Wednesday showed. The meeting summary depicted a divergence of opinion among the central bankers, whose vote to hold their key rate steady came despite objections from two Fed governors who argued in favor of cutting.
