The B2B marketing agency that reaches buyers
Business customers search differently, take longer to decide and ask for a quote first. We set up SEO, content and Google Ads for exactly that, and measure through to the deal.
Why Stijgt
A B2B digital marketing agency that knows wholesale
For Decofleur, a European wholesaler in dried flowers, we work in four languages on SEO, content, link building, Google Ads and conversion optimisation. The result: more than 5,400 organic keywords, consistent top 3 positions on wholesale terms and rising revenue from SEO in a shrinking market.
Baxhout grew with us from a timber merchant into a full online shop for both consumer and business customers. And with our own company Djunes we serve businesses and consumers every day, cutting the cost per lead through Google Ads by 38 per cent.
That is how we know how business customers search, where they drop off and what a lead is really worth. Accelerated with AI, checked by a strategist.

What makes B2B different
Six things B2B marketing demands
A buyer is not a consumer. Treat B2B marketing as if it were about impulse purchases and you attract the wrong traffic and measure the wrong things.
- 01
Business buyers search differently
A buyer searches for "wholesale", "supplier", "made to measure", an article number or a specification, not for "buy". Serve only consumer keywords and you miss the business demand entirely.
- 02
A long sales cycle
Between the first search and the order there are often weeks or months, several people and a few rounds of comparison. Your site has to give answers at every stage, from orientation to quote.
- 03
Leads and quotes instead of orders
Most B2B revenue starts with a quote request, a sample order or a phone call. That calls for pages that build trust and forms that work without detours.
- 04
The value of a lead is only known later
A request is not yet revenue. Without a link between the request and the eventual deal, Google Ads optimises for forms instead of customers, and you pay for the wrong leads.
- 05
Volume pricing, customer login and net prices
A B2B shop works with volume pricing, customer-specific prices and a login. Google still has to be able to see and index your range, otherwise your catalogue stays invisible.
- 06
Often several countries and languages
Many B2B companies sell across borders. Every country searches with its own terms and has its own competitors, so a translated site is not yet a findable site.
Who it is for
For every company that sells to businesses
Whether you supply dried flowers, timber or machinery, the pattern is the same. Customers who search by specification and supplier, a quote before the order, and customers who, once won, keep ordering for years.

Our approach
How we win you more business customers
- 01
Baseline
We map where your requests and business customers come from now, what a lead is worth, which business search terms your competitors are found for and where your site loses buyers.
- 02
B2B marketing strategy
Together we decide which product groups, customer types and countries come first. We align keywords, content, budget and campaigns to that.
- 03
Execution and measurement through to the deal
SEO, content, Google Ads and, where it fits, social go live, with measurement that runs from request to order. Accelerated with AI, checked by a strategist.
- 04
Adjusting on customer value
Every month we look at which keywords and campaigns bring in real customers. Those get more attention and budget; whatever only produces form submissions, we wind down.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about B2B marketing
What is B2B digital marketing and how does it differ from B2C?
B2B digital marketing targets business customers: buyers, business owners and professionals looking for something for their company. They search with different terms (wholesale, supplier, specifications), compare for longer, often decide with several people and ask for a quote first instead of ordering straight away. The approach therefore centres on being found for business search terms, content that answers buyers’ questions and measurement that runs through to the deal.
Do you have experience with B2B marketing?
Yes. For Decofleur, a European wholesaler in dried flowers, we work in four languages on SEO, content, link building, Google Ads and conversion optimisation: more than 5,400 organic keywords and consistent top 3 positions on wholesale terms, in a shrinking market. Baxhout built a timber merchant into an online shop for both consumer and business customers with us. And with our own company Djunes we serve business and consumer customers every day.
Does SEO work for a B2B company?
Yes, often even better than for consumer brands, because there is less competition on business search terms and a single customer is worth a lot. B2B SEO starts with the right keywords: not "buy flowers" but "dried flowers wholesale", not "timber" but the wood type, size and application a tradesperson searches for. Then we build the category and product pages and content that rank for them.
Is Google Ads suitable for B2B?
Yes, provided you optimise for requests and customers rather than clicks. Business keywords often have low volume but high value, so we aim campaigns at the terms buyers use and exclude consumer traffic. At our own company Djunes the cost per lead through Google Ads fell by 38 per cent by working this way. We recommend an advertising budget of at least € 500 per month.
How do you measure whether a lead becomes a customer?
We measure the quote request or contact moment in GA4 and your ad platforms, and link it where possible to your CRM or quoting system. That shows us which keywords and campaigns produce not just requests but real orders. Where a direct link is not possible, we work with what a request is worth on average.
My B2B shop has a customer login and volume pricing. Can Google even find it?
That is exactly one of the things we check in the baseline. Google does not see pages behind a login, and a catalogue that only becomes visible after logging in does not exist for search engines. We make sure category and product information is publicly findable, while net prices and ordering stay behind the login.
Is LinkedIn part of B2B digital marketing?
Sometimes. LinkedIn works well for reaching a specific job role or sector, for example in business services or with a new product. For a wholesaler or supplier that people mainly search for, visibility in Google usually delivers more. We only recommend social advertising where it fits your audience and your margin.
Do you also do B2B content marketing?
Yes. B2B content is about the questions a buyer asks before requesting a quote: applications, specifications, differences between materials or variants, delivery times and minimum order quantities. That content makes you findable for long-tail searches, in Google and in AI search engines, and removes objections before the sales conversation starts.
What does B2B marketing at Stijgt cost?
You pay a one-off set-up fee and then a fixed amount per month, which you can cancel monthly. For Google Ads we recommend an advertising budget of at least € 500 per month. We work for at most one client per industry and region. In a free intro call we give an honest estimate for your situation.
