- Competition is tough; building and maintaining a differentiation cannot be based only on the product quality, it also depends on how the Supplier works with the Customer

- Procurement is more professional and more demanding: Suppliers must demonstrate the Value they bring
- International and global companies are not always centralized making selling to them more complex
- When they need information, B2B decision-makers and buyers look for trusted sources and listen to Influencers, not to sales reps
- In all companies, team members want autonomy and a say in decision, team work and collaboration are more valued than individualistic effort
- Information is digital and is shared over the internet
- In such a world, KAM/GAM cannot simply be the same!
