We took the liberty to list a few for you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Identify_what_buyers_want\"><\/span><strong>1.

You lose a competitive advantage if you keep dodging its adoption. Predictive analytics in B2B marketing is very different from B2C. It requires a more nuanced approach.

Therefore, make sure you do it right.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A rapidly changing marketplace creates ambitious imperatives for stakeholders.
