Fundamentals of B2B marketing At Inside Waste, we partner with you in the shared aim of growing your business. With 25+ years of marketing high-value products to industries, we know how to build strong campaigns that will build your standing in the industry.

We believe there are five key fundamentals when it comes to B2B marketing - and when you master these, you’re on the right path to connecting with decision makers, educating prospects and boosting sales.

Products are complex, so education is paramount

The sales cycle is long, with multiple decision makers

Relationships with potential clients pave the path to sales

Brand development and share of voice are critical

The right communication channels are key

In B2B marketing, educating your audience about your products and services is crucial to the sales process. Your own website and collateral are important here; but so is using trusted media channels, such as Inside Waste, to educate and influence customers.

It takes time for buyers to understand the product or service you’re offering and how it could benefit their business. Staying front of mind with clients during the extended buying cycle is key; and content and advertising inclusions in Inside Waste assist in this process.

With so many decision makers involved in B2B transactions, it is vital to have advocates that can champion your solutions within potential client businesses. Building relationships through media touchpoints, events and other in person interactions is critical.

Establishing a strong brand is integral to creating lasting relationships with clients.

At Inside Waste, we build your brand with content that tells your story; and advertising across print, web and enewsletters to give you a solid share of voice.

Building brand equity hinges on using a variety of communication channels. Print helps generate awareness and establish credibility; while digital is great for educating prospects. We offer all of these options, and the engaged audience that help build your brand.

Annual partnerships Master the extended B2B buying cycle with an annual marketing partnership. These packages give you access to the best of what we have to offer across print and digital, and extended exposure to our audience of decision makers.

What the industry says “I am an avid reader of the Inside Waste email links that are sent to me on a regular basis.

The site and content are helpful for someone working in the field, especially as I do not have a traditional environmental science background.

“I’ve found that Inside Waste provides unique and valuable insights into the Australian domestic resource recovery and waste industry.”

James Dorney CEO – TOMRA Cleanaway

The site provides readers with well-written articles detailing waste-related content for all different aspects of the waste industry.

It also allows me to read about content outside of my area of expertise and broaden the scope of my waste knowledge, especially in the context of waste policy and operations for which I have an interest..”
