Streamline complex B2B buying journeys
B2B and B2C business models vary considerably. However, one of the main distinctions is who decides on and authorizes a purchase. Unlike B2C, B2B buyers are rarely a single person. Instead, they’re teams, with each team member playing a different role and shouldering their own set of responsibilities.
This can make for complex customer journeys. While one individual may organize a purchase, another might have to authorize it. Ibexa DXP streamlines the buyer journey by allowing you to manage the purchase process and workflow. You can regulate the buying process, designate different roles distinct access permissions or allow the customer to manage the process themselves.

Accommodating dynamic pricing and the B2B approach
B2B also differs from B2C in that pricing and payment are far more nuanced and dynamic. It’s not unusual to utilize tiered pricing structures or for customers to attempt to negotiate more favorable terms. This can cause problems for companies that still struggle with organizational silos and that can’t facilitate the free flow of information between business systems.
Ibexa DXP is the solution. Offering easy integration with existing business systems, such as CRM, ERP, and PIM, it ensures your employees have access to up-to-date information and enables you to offer precise and flexible custom prices. In today’s fast-paced business environment, the ability to get a real-time reading on your inventory position is invaluable.
Buyers are more willing than ever before to spend big through remote or online sales channels, with 35% willing to spend $500,000 or more in a single transaction (up from 27% in February 2021). 77% of B2B customers are also willing to spend $50,000 or more
