Top Rank Marketing’s pandemic poll found 36% of B2B reported an increase in the volume of work they have done with influencers during the pandemic.
The poll data indicates while 32% B2B marketers said they don’t use influencers, 36% have increased the volume of work they do with influencers during the global health crisis. In addition, 63% of B2B marketing professionals said they learned new skills during this period.
While asking about the most significant pain points faced by B2B marketers during the global health crisis in a Twitter poll, none reported remote work issues.
