B2B Online Shops

B2B customers want a brilliant user experience and the ease of shopping that they are accustomed to from purchasing privately. Yet, B2B sales is more complex and demanding than selling to consumers. At Especial, we specialise in building bespoke B2B shops that accommodate and adapt to your unique business needs and deliver stellar service to your business customers.

Focus on B2B customer needs

B2B Commerce Expectations

Just as in B2C eCommerce, online customers in B2B also expect basics like reliability, good design and fast loading speeds from your website. Moreover, there are many added requirements, that are not as commonly seen in B2C stores, yet vital for your B2B eCommerce success.

The sales process in B2B is typically very specifically designed around a companies products, services, and customer relationships. A successful B2B online store needs to be able to reflect these workflows and processes – e.g., by providing approval flows, custom invoicing and payment rules per client etc.

Products and price structures are typically rather complex in B2B sales. You might even have dedicated products and price lists per customers. Most eCommerce platforms are not prepared for this kind of complexity.

Complexity in data processing and data integrity requires reliable and scalable integrations with your existing systems and IT landscape.

Business customers often have multiple people issuing orders for one company. Thus, a B2B store needs to offer multi-level accounts to be able to syndicate these personal accounts under department- and company accounts.

Usually, B2B eCommerce doesn't exist in a vacuum. You are probably employing a team of sales people that also support your customers. A successful B2B store will integrate itself with existing sales measures and offer features that empower your sales crew to reach new heights.
