Key findings from the study

In this study, discover how B2B buying decisions are really made, based on an analysis of more than 100 Win-Loss programs and 4,000 buyer feedback entries collected after the decision.

Because unlike the loss reasons logged in CRMs or discussed in internal debriefs, buyers' real decision criteria often remain invisible to sales, marketing, and product teams.

In this study, you'll discover in particular:

  • How B2B buying decisions are really made and why much of the decision-making happens outside of sales conversations
  • Why companies often get loss reasons wrong, particularly the role of price
  • The factors that truly make (or break) a deal, according to buyers
  • How to structure an effective Win-Loss program to capture actionable insights
  • How to turn the buyer's voice into a lever for improving win rate, positioning, and the sales experience
  • A concentrated set of field findings to better understand what really influences B2B buying decisions.
