What are “intent signals” in B2B marketing — and why are they more important than ever?

In today’s hyper-competitive B2B landscape, buyers don’t raise their hand and say, “I’m ready to purchase”. Instead, they leave behind digital footprints—behavioral cues that reveal their interests, needs, and purchasing stage. These cues are what we call intent signals.
Intent signals can come from many touchpoints: reading a case study on your website, attending a webinar, comparing solutions on review sites, or even engaging with competitor content. On the surface, they may seem like random actions, but together they create a powerful picture of where a buyer is on their journey and what they need right now.
๐ค Thanks to AI and predictive analytics, companies can now capture, interpret, and act on these signals in real time. This means marketers and sales teams can shift from cold outreach to precision engagement—meeting prospects with the right message at the right moment.

Intent signals are no longer optional—they are the new currency of B2B growth. In an era where buyers control the journey, the companies that win will be those that can detect intent early, personalize at scale, and engage with empathy. By aligning sales and marketing strategies around intent, businesses can achieve higher conversions, stronger relationships, and a measurable edge over the competition.
