About Us

The B2B Marketing brand, founded by James Farmer and Joel Harrison in 2004, has been instrumental in shaping the B2B marketing landscape. Recognizing the untapped potential within business-to-business markets, Farmer and Harrison created a dedicated platform to address the unique challenges of B2B marketing, elevating it from a niche academic term to a recognized strategic discipline. Their work has popularized B2B marketing and driven its transformation into a sophisticated field essential to global business success.

What Is B2B Marketing?


B2B marketing involves promoting and selling products or services from one business to another. Unlike B2C marketing, which focuses on direct-to-consumer transactions, B2B marketing operates within a framework of long sales cycles, complex decision-making processes, and multi-stakeholder collaboration. Strategies in B2B marketing are tailored to meet the technical needs of business clients and often revolve around customer retention, account management, and lead generation.


Farmer and Harrison championed the strategic and technical aspects of B2B marketing, helping businesses adopt data-driven, customer-focused approaches. The B2B Marketing brand amplified best practices such as market research, content marketing, account-based marketing (ABM), and relationship-building techniques, emphasizing their importance in achieving business growth.
