Where B2B lead generation is heading
A short guide from Compos Software for software resellers and VARs.
B2B lead generation looks different from a few years ago. Buyers expect more relevance and less noise, and software resellers and VARs have adjusted how they buy.
Tighter alignment with sales
Marketing and sales share definitions and review results together more often.
Search and AI answers
Buyers research on their own, including through AI assistants. Being findable and clearly described matters more.
Fewer, better touches
Less noise and more relevance is the clearest trend across markets.
More research up front
Preparation before outreach has become standard practice.
What this looks like week to week
Write down every change you make to targeting or messaging, with the date and the reason. After a few months that log becomes the most valuable record of what works for software resellers and VARs.
Review results together every week, even when there is little to report. The habit matters more than the meeting length, and it keeps small problems from becoming large ones.
Share early wins and early misses with the wider team. account executives and revenue operations usually spot patterns the program team misses, and they are more likely to act on results they helped shape.
Decide in advance what would make you pause or change course. A clear threshold avoids long debates when results are mixed.
Common questions
Can B2B lead generation work alongside our existing marketing?
Yes. It works best when it shares the same targeting and message as the rest of your marketing, so buyers hear one consistent story.
What do you need from our team?
A named owner, a short brief on who you sell to, and a quick weekly note on what happened with the results. That is usually less than two hours a week.
How is quality checked?
Every result is measured against the definition agreed before launch. Anything that falls short is flagged in the weekly report rather than counted.
What happens to contacts who are not interested?
They are recorded and respected. Anyone who opts out is added to a suppression list and is not contacted again in any later campaign.
