The Largest Study of B2B Buying Behaviour Globally
In a significant move that underscores its commitment to the B2B sector, dentsu has announced the global expansion of its B2B Specialised Practice alongside the release of its fourth annual Superpowers Index.
This dual announcement marks a pivotal moment in dentsu’s strategy to dominate the B2B marketing landscape.
Unlocking B2B Buyer Insights
The Superpowers Index, now in its fourth year, continues to be the largest study of B2B buying behaviour globally.
With over 14,000 individual buyer interviews and coverage of more than 25,000 in-depth buying experiences, the index provides unparalleled insights into the real drivers behind B2B purchasing decisions.
Key Findings Reshape B2B Landscape
Brand building has leaped from the fifth priority in 2023 to the top spot in 2024.
The number of brands considered in B2B buying journeys has surged by 62% since 2021.
Decision-making time has increased by 54 days since 2021, with delayed B2B opportunities estimated to impact the world economy by approximately US$1.9 trillion.
Only about 40% of businesses reported high satisfaction with their chosen brand’s ability to tailor offerings to their needs.
A 10-point increase in the proprietary Superpowers Index Score correlates with a 14% average uplift in the dollar value of each opportunity.
