Many marketing scholars believe that demand generation is both a science as well as an art. It involves development, nurturing and also management of the buying interests that customers have on various products. All this is made achievable through market analysis as well as lead and campaign management.
To make the development, management & nurturing of a buyer's interest a practical possibility, it is very important for marketers to familiarize themselves with the modern trends of the modern day customers. Most buyers are at the present time getting all the data relating to the products & services that they require from the appropriate websites. Due to this situation, marketers need to strongly focus on gaining sufficient knowledge on the requirements of a modern buyer. After understanding and knowing the buyers needs they shall be required to facilitate their buying process instead of forcing marketing messages on them, which they seldom need.

In order for the marketers to accomplish this mission of buyer process facilitation, they need to put lots of emphasis on demand generation. This means that they have to fully understand the buyer's area of interest, their level of interest and the various stages involved in their process of buying items. Marketers can do this by understanding the online behavioral traits of such buyers.

From a detailed understanding of the buyers' online behaviors, marketers can later utilize software for measurement of the lead scores. That program will assist them to identify which buyers/purchasers are at a purchasing process stage, where it'll be possible to gear up to engage with products or services sales. The fit leads can be passed to service and product sales while those ones that are not qualified can be engaged in a 'lead nurturing program that is geared to increase their buying interest levels.

Upon thorough understanding of a prospective customer's interest areas, and the stage in their buying process, marketing campaigns (B2B) can be personalized in accordance with the above factors. This personalization can be strengthened through the use of marketing automation software. The software will assist the marketers in delivery of the correct messages to the right buyers.

B2B campaigns in marketing are becoming more and more driven and facilitated by marketing automation programs/software. The software is of great assistance in helping the marketers to target the right buyers and analyze the content of their dialogues/communications with them for sound decision making.

All marketers must know that they need to change their approach. They will be forced to have deep knowledge of the buyer's interest areas. Failure to do that will not see them succeed in their marketing campaigns for demand generation.
