How is AI transforming traditional B2B marketing?
Around 80% of B2B buyers now complete much of their decision-making before contacting a business.
In this new world of “dark funnels”, the tried-and-tested tactics of lead generation and scoring, gated white papers and product demos are being disrupted by AI-led recommendations, peer research and signals that are increasingly difficult to track.
So how should businesses respond? And how do marketers take ownership of these changes while ensuring their board reporting inspires confidence from the C-suite rather than difficult questions they can’t answer?
In this episode of The Podcast: , Hal Kimber speaks to Caroline Hodson, Founder and CEO of Woolf Hodson — a marketing agency focused on building the operational and technological foundations that enable effective marketing.
In a fascinating conversation, Caroline explores how B2B marketing needs to evolve for an AI-first world, including:
• Why traditional linear lead scoring is giving way to signal-based models
• Why hiding your best thinking behind a form could make it invisible to AI
• How marketers can reconnect anonymous “dark funnel” activity with known contacts and accounts
• Why clean, unified data is becoming fundamental to effective marketing
• How AI can help marketers interrogate performance — but why human judgement remains essential
• What marketing reports need to show if they are going to withstand scrutiny from CEOs and CFOs
And perhaps most importantly, Caroline explains why marketing needs to stop reporting activity for activity’s sake and build a direct line between business goals, marketing objectives, KPIs and the campaigns designed to deliver them.
