B2B Predictive Analytics - Successful Data Management
How to make data work for your B2B sales team while avoiding common pitfalls in data management
We can associate power with strength, force and influence, but also with destruction and violence - the typical two sides of a coin.
Sayings like “data is the new oil” or “data is a valuable asset” are on everyone’s lips in the age of Big Data. These statements might hide a profound truth, nevertheless. If used rightly, data is worth its weight in gold for a company.
How to avoid the Causality Trap of Black-Box Machine Learning
Sales Acceleration with Predictive Analytics Software: How to avoid The Causality Trap of Black-Box Machine Learning.

How to improve your B2B Customer Journey with Predictive Analytics
About the b2b Customer Journey Management and how Predictive Analytics can help.
Predictive analytics, customer-centric selling, and optimization of the customer journey (CJ) have long been part of everyday life in the B2C sector. In the B2B industry, things look somewhat different. First projects are starting, the theory has already been heard and understood - but there is still a lot of uncertainty regarding the concrete implementation.
That is no wonder. There are some fundamental differences between the B2C and B2B sector. For example, business customers often have higher expectations of the business relationship. It is more important for salespeople to build a personal relationship with their customers and to know their customers.
If Your Data Is Bad, Your Sales AI Tools Are Useless
Artificial intelligence (AI) is steadily advancing in B2B sales. AI is changing the way customers are buying and therefore how salespeople should work.
The gathering of data, its quality, the source systems, all play a central role in the implementation of AI in Sales. Poor data quality may be hard to measure, but it takes an essential part in the application and execution of artificial intelligence systems and predictive analytics.
How B2B Data Analytics is Changing Sales
How Big Data and Advanced Analytics Are Revolutionizing Sales in B2B, and What Managers Should Know About It.
B2B customer buying experience is radically changing. This trend has led to dramatic changes in the sales profession over the past decade.
“Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change”, wrote Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley in Frankenstein. Sales management in B2B is experiencing an abrupt and rapid transformation.
The Case for AI in B2B Sales
Why artificial intelligence in B2B sales is unavoidable and what you can do about it.
Adapt or die – a fact of life for B2B sales nowadays. Key Account Managers know this too well, for they have very different tasks and jobs, as compared with just ten years ago.
E-commerce is by no means just a new sales channel. Order-takers roles will disappear in the next decade. This shift in skills will strongly influence how salespeople are selected and how they perform. Also, artificial intelligence impacts the role of B2B sales.
Artificial Intelligence in Sales: B2B Algorithmic Management
Modern data-driven management in B2B sales is where Big Data meets Artificial Intelligence. Using AI for sales efficiency.
Although algorithmic management boasts a fancy, new name, managing a workforce using data is not necessarily a new postulate. Just remember that “The Principles of Scientific Management” were published by Frederick Taylor in 1911 and soon became a culprit of the data-driven management.
Algorithmic management is Taylorism in times of big data and artificial intelligence. It uses machine learning to manage and control workforces. Millions of people employ algorithmic management when ordering food, buying online or taking a cab. Millions of workers respond to algorithms. For some, the future of management, for others a depressing picture.

Industrial distribution: Identify potential for cross-selling with predictive analytics
How wholesalers and distributors recognize cross-selling potentials with predictive analytics.
Many manufacturers now sell their products directly to end consumers via web marketplaces. Unfortunately, wholesale trade and industrial distribution are coming under increasing pressure as a result.
Calculating cross-selling potentials using modern data mining can be a suitable strategy for keeping pace with the competition.
A glance at the analyses of the Federal Statistical Office shows that almost 90 % of Germans make online purchases at least once a year.
