Episode notes
Career Path That Shaped Her B2B View
- Antonia described her path from Accenture to Thomson Reuters, Capita and then PwC where she wrote her book between jobs.
- She explained how each role taught her marketing rigour, attribution and transforming fragmented brands.
B2B Services Are Relationship Sales
- Relationship-led B2B services differ radically from transactional B2C purchases due to long timeframes and high trust stakes.
- Buyers choose partners for chemistry, trust and shared risk, not just feature sets or price.
Target Precisely, Not Broadly
- Do map your target addressable market precisely and spend per individual, not per million impressions.
- Avoid using B2C volume metrics to judge B2B campaigns; treat B2B as a precision game.
