While traditional B2B marketing approaches are becoming less effective, the businesses adapting their strategies for 2026 are capturing higher-value leads and dramatically improving conversion rates. The key insight? Your ideal customer profile now includes understanding not just company demographics, but the specific roles, pain points, and decision-making processes of individuals within those organisations — because B2B buyers are humans making human decisions. In this episode, Exposure Ninja's Charlie Marchant (CEO), Tim Cameron-Kitchen (Founder), and Dale Davies (Head of Marketing) reveal: • The critical shift from company-focused to person-focused B2B marketing (including why understanding internal stakeholders beyond your primary contact is now essential for closing deals) • How AI tools like ChatGPT are fundamentally changing B2B research behaviour — and the specific content strategies that position your brand to win in these new buyer journeys • The "B2Cification" of B2B marketing and why channels like TV advertising and Formula One sponsorship are now viable for B2B brands with high customer lifetime values • Proven frameworks for mapping modern B2B buyer journeys that account for multiple touchpoints, stakeholder involvement, and AI-assisted research phases • Real examples of B2B brands like AirOps, Monday.com, and 1Password that are using creative, engaging marketing to stand out without compromising credibility The trio share actionable strategies from our work with B2B clients, including how to create sales enablement materials that turn your initial contact into an internal advocate. As Tim explains in the episode: "AI is like a filter that you look at everything that you do through, just like SEO has really been a filter. The name of the game will be just getting as much info about your business in every aspect of what you do online, so that when ChatGPT is going and doing that research and looking at 500 websites to recommend the best marketing and sales CRM or whatever, it's got enough info there to recommend you." If you're ready to build a B2B marketing strategy that drives results in 2026 while your competitors cling to outdated approaches, this episode provides your complete roadmap for success.
