Author Bev Burgess explores the growing importance of executive engagement and how marketers can move from fragmented initiatives to an orchestrated program.
LEXINGTON, Mass. - PennZone -- When it comes to marketing and selling complex, high value products and services in today's digital world, how you engage with buyers has never mattered more. Leading B2B marketing expert, Bev Burgess, explores this theme in her third book, Executive Engagement Strategies: How to have conversations and develop relationships that build B2B business. The book was published by Kogan Page on March 3, 2020 in the UK and is being released today in the US.
In this follow-up to her highly successful, A Practitioner's Guide to ABM: Accelerating Growth in Strategic Accounts, co-authored with ITSMA President & CEO Dave Munn in 2017, Burgess explains that while consumer buying behavior is moving increasingly online, business purchases rely much more on deeper and more ongoing relationships. Executives purchasing business solutions still buy from people, but it's how we engage with them that makes all the difference.
The book, written in Burgess' clear, pragmatic style, distills her many years of practical experience in B2B marketing to create an insightful playbook on executive engagement. As Jon Geldart, Director General of the Institute of Directors, says in the Forward, the book "codifies for the first time the random acts of interaction used by most companies today into a well-defined, comprehensive framework which we can all use."

Burgess states, "My goal was to create an action-oriented resource that reflects how high-value business solutions are actually bought today. I explore how marketers can engage with senior executives to get their attention, spark their interest, and earn their trust. The book includes a step-by-step guide of how modern buyers want to engage at each stage of the buying process and uses real-life case studies to bring these concepts to life."
