With this in mind, let&#8217;s dive into some eye-opening B2B sales statistics that you should know.<\/p>\n<h2>B2B Sales Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>Building relationships and connecting with people is the most important part of selling, and the most enjoyable part of the job. It\u2019s something 82% of people agree with, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hubspot.com\/hubfs\/HubSpots%202024%20Sales%20Trends%20Report.pdf?hubs_signup-url=offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report&amp;hubs_signup-cta=Submit&amp;hubs_offer=offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report&amp;_gl=1*4mbdgf*_gcl_au*Mjg5MzQ4NTMyLjE3NTE4ODMwMjQ.*FPAU*Mjg5MzQ4NTMyLjE3NTE4ODMwMjQ.*_ga*MTgzNjE1MjMyOS4xNzUxODgzMDI1*_ga_LXTM6CQ0XK*czE3NTE4ODMwMjQkbzEkZzEkdDE3NTE4ODM4NTkkajU0JGwwJGgw*_fplc*c0pQQzk2aVBTTXFTcTh6dXFkU0FkOG4wOEVDQ1lzNTVyTkJiNjYwZVcxb1VoTkk0SHN4WUlRenNsZWtqM0VtUTh1Q0lsNHg1S2VKUjBYWnk4RHo3TnBNSjlJNXFYY3pVaThqWVlDeXBaazJ0NllTZDB6YU80ZDBiN0tUcG93JTNEJTNE&amp;_ga=2.4936819.1737098749.1751883025-1836152329.1751883025\">according to HubSpot data<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But the same research found that salespeople only spend an average of 2 hours a day selling.<\/p>\n<p>The average sales close rate was 29%, and the average sales win rate was 21%, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/sales-statistics\">according to further research by HubSpot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Getting a meeting booked is proving harder in 2025. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cognism.com\/cold-calling-report-2025?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">One of Cognism&#8217;s clients reports<\/a> that they made 204,698 dials and took 27,513 conversations to book 617 meetings. That&#8217;s half as successful as last year.<\/p>\n<h2>Sales Call Statistics<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cognism.com\/blog\/cold-calling-success-rates\/\">Only 2% of cold calls convert into actual sales<\/a>. But it\u2019s one of the few methods that can connect salespeople with decision makers, with 78% of business reporting that they\u2019ve attended an event or scheduled a meeting because of a cold call. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cognism.com\/blog\/cold-calling-success-rates\/\">Get more cold calling stats in our dedicated blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When you introduce buyer intent data, <a href=\"https:\/\/offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report\">65% of sales reps say<\/a> they have a better chance of closing deals. And when you combine this warm calling, you can see sales close at a much higher rate of between 10 to 14%, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leadforensics.com\/webinars\/the-warm-calling-playbook\/\">according to one of our webinars<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The most successful calls involve longer discovery calls. That\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/salesinsightslab.com\/sales-research\/\">according to Sales Insights Lab<\/a>, which found that top performers get prospects talking more than their less successful colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>The average sales rep asks 23 questions during a discovery call\u2014but top performers ask an average of 32 questions. They also answer more questions from prospects, with the average rep taking 15 questions and top performers fielding 21 questions.<\/p>\n<h2>Sales Email Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>The average employee receives 200 emails a day, and 24% of those have attachments, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sendtrumpet.com\/blog-posts\/17-b2b-sales-statistics-to-help-you-benchmark\">according to Trumpet<\/a>. Furthermore, only 6% of those emails are accessed.<\/p>\n<p>When you send emails, keep in mind that 75% of emails are opened within the first hour. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yesware.com\/blog\/best-time-to-send-email\/\">Yesware found<\/a> that 98% are opened within a day of being sent, so if you haven\u2019t heard back by the next day then you probably won\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t forget to personalize your subject line, as those emails are 26% more likely to be opened. That\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/instapage.com\/blog\/personalization-statistics\/\">according to Instapage<\/a>, which also reports that personalized CTAs also see a 202% increased conversion rate.<\/p>\n<h2>Sales Objection Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>The majority of customers (60%) will say no four times before they say yes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.invespcro.com\/blog\/sale-follow-ups\/\">according to Invesp<\/a>. That\u2019s a lot of objections to handle, even for the most confident of sales reps.<\/p>\n<p>The initial \u2018no\u2019 discourages more than half of salespeople (56%), the same report claims.<\/p>\n<p>But objections aren\u2019t inherently bad. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/gtmnow.com\/self-limiting-beliefs\/\">GTMnow found<\/a> that when a prospect brought up an objection, the deal win rate went up by almost 30%. That\u2019s because the team has been coached on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leadforensics.com\/blog\/sales\/50-common-sales-objections-and-how-to-handle-them-effectively\/\">how to handle common sales objections<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Sales Follow-up Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>Following up is an essential part of B2B sales, but it\u2019s one that is often overlooked, as 48% of reps never make a second follow-up call, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.invespcro.com\/blog\/sale-follow-ups\/\">Invesp<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth being persistent, because 80% of deals need between five and 12 contact attempts before the close, <a href=\"https:\/\/qwilr.com\/blog\/sales-follow-up-statistics\/\">reports Qwilr<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When should you follow up? If you engage a lead within 60 seconds of inquiry, it boosts conversion rates by almost 400%, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lusha.com\/blog\/sales-follow-up-statistics\/\">Lusher shares<\/a>. But that may not be a feasible benchmark for most businesses. If you\u2019re qualifying the lead, calling within an hour after their engagement still increases your chances seven-fold.<\/p>\n<h2>Sales Cycle Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>The average B2B sales cycle takes between one and three months, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/databox.com\/b2b-sales-cycle-length\">research by Databox<\/a>. They also found that the average length of a sales cycle increases as deal value increases, and around 8% of companies reported sales cycles of over five months.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the sales process taking too long is the biggest reason prospects back out of a deal, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hubspot.com\/hubfs\/HubSpots%202024%20Sales%20Trends%20Report.pdf?hubs_signup-url=offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report&amp;hubs_signup-cta=Submit&amp;hubs_offer=offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report&amp;_gl=1*4mbdgf*_gcl_au*Mjg5MzQ4NTMyLjE3NTE4ODMwMjQ.*FPAU*Mjg5MzQ4NTMyLjE3NTE4ODMwMjQ.*_ga*MTgzNjE1MjMyOS4xNzUxODgzMDI1*_ga_LXTM6CQ0XK*czE3NTE4ODMwMjQkbzEkZzEkdDE3NTE4ODM4NTkkajU0JGwwJGgw*_fplc*c0pQQzk2aVBTTXFTcTh6dXFkU0FkOG4wOEVDQ1lzNTVyTkJiNjYwZVcxb1VoTkk0SHN4WUlRenNsZWtqM0VtUTh1Q0lsNHg1S2VKUjBYWnk4RHo3TnBNSjlJNXFYY3pVaThqWVlDeXBaazJ0NllTZDB6YU80ZDBiN0tUcG93JTNEJTNE&amp;_ga=2.4936819.1737098749.1751883025-1836152329.1751883025\">according to 28% of sales pros<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Social Selling Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>Social selling is almost as popular as phone calls for remote sales reps; <a href=\"https:\/\/offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report?hubs_signup-url=blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/sales-statistics&amp;hubs_signup-cta=hubspot&amp;hubs_post=blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/sales-statistics&amp;hubs_post-cta=hubspot&amp;_gl=1*1qnie41*_gcl_au*MjIxMDE0MDYxLjE3NTIyMzkwODA.*FPAU*MjIxMDE0MDYxLjE3NTIyMzkwODA.*_ga*NDMwNDA4MzYzLjE3NTIyMzkwODA.*_ga_LXTM6CQ0XK*czE3NTIyMzkwODAkbzEkZzAkdDE3NTIyMzkwODAkajYwJGwwJGgw*_fplc*MUxFTFhDdmc5TUNJdkN3UDNKM0JyR1UyU2pVamVrMGJMWUViOEV6UEpOd1hRaGRWRGRTNU9QV0NIbEVZSFV0RkpRN2pWOGw5QmhMTHNNU3lnMFZaMXFvV2V0OGdjJTJCMjdEaDVPbyUyQmRoUUxqY2V0akxXb09idXlMaHR4aDJNUSUzRCUzRA..&amp;_ga=2.38246310.403618204.1752239080-430408363.1752239080\">HubSpot found<\/a> 27% prefer calls, but 24% prefer social media! With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prezentor.com\/\">80% of B2B sales being conducted virtually<\/a>, you can\u2019t afford to not start social selling.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s already commonplace in marketing, with <a href=\"https:\/\/business.linkedin.com\/sales-solutions\/social-selling\">89% of B2B marketers reporting<\/a> that they use LinkedIn to generate leads.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s a growing area of focus for B2B sales, too. In 2024, 18% of salespeople considered social selling one of their top five areas of focus, but <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/hubspot-sales-strategy-report?hubs_content=blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/social-selling-stats&amp;hubs_content-cta=hubspots-2024-state-of-sales-report\">HubSpot predicts this will increase<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, LinkedIn is the platform of choice for B2B sales. <a href=\"https:\/\/business.linkedin.com\/sales-solutions\/social-selling\">Its own statistics show that<\/a> the best salespeople (those who reached 150% of quota or more) were more than twice as likely to have expanded their LinkedIn network in the past year (53%) compared with their average peers (25%).<\/p>\n<p>The platform also found that social selling leaders create 45% more opportunities, they\u2019re 51% more likely to reach quota, and 78% of social sellers outsell peers who don\u2019t use social media.<\/p>\n<h2>B2B Sales Content Stats<\/h2>\n<p>Sales enablement is a hot topic, and it\u2019s something that is heavily supported by content. When invested in, sales enablement can genuinely improve sales performance \u2013 and <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.g2.com\/sales-enablement-statistics\">76% of leaders agree<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>B2B buyers support the importance of strong content, too. The vast majority (90%) agree that online content has a moderate to major effect on purchasing decisions, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sendtrumpet.com\/blog-posts\/17-b2b-sales-statistics-to-help-you-benchmark\">claims Trumpet<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But 75% of content marketers forget about sales enablement when they\u2019re planning their marketing efforts, <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.g2.com\/sales-enablement-statistics\">G2 reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Stats about B2B Decision Makers<\/h2>\n<p>The buying process is complex. In mid-sized companies with 100-500 employees, the average buying decision involves seven people, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sendtrumpet.com\/blog-posts\/17-b2b-sales-statistics-to-help-you-benchmark\">according to Gartner Group<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Increasingly, B2B buyers want to research independently before they speak to anyone. 57% of salespeople agree that buyers are less dependent on sales during the buying process than they were a few years ago, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/buyers-speak-out-how-sales-needs-to-evolve?__hstc=175426365.272f9f18f36a85ab3bdb81ff69830d54.1751375987275.1751375987275.1751375987275.1&amp;__hssc=175426365.9.1751375987275&amp;__hsfp=465778053\">according to HubSpot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The same research found that 52% of buyers prefer to use self-service tools and a third want the chance to see a product early in the buying journey.<\/p>\n<h2>Customer Referral Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>84% of B2B buyers start their purchasing process with a referral, <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2016\/11\/84-of-b2b-sales-start-with-a-referral-not-a-salesperson\">according to the Harvard Business Review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And although 91% of customers say they\u2019d give a referral, <a href=\"https:\/\/viral-loops.com\/referral-marketing\/statistics\">only 11% of sales people ask them<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth creating a referral scheme: 55% of companies with referral programmes say their sales efforts are highly effective, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalwebsolutions.com\/blog\/referral-marketing-statistics\/\">Digital Web Solutions<\/a>. Plus, those referred customers had a 59% higher lifetime value.<\/p>\n<p>But only <a href=\"https:\/\/influitive.com\/blog\/infographic-17-stats-about-b2b-referrals-you-should-know-but-probably-dont\/\">30% of B2B companies<\/a> have a referral programme in place.<\/p>\n<h2>CRM Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>Almost every B2B business <a href=\"https:\/\/www.answeriq.com\/crm-statistics\/\">uses CRM for customer retention<\/a>. If you\u2019re in the 1% of companies that don\u2019t, you\u2019re being seriously left behind.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/eu\/learning-centre\/crm\/what-is-crm\/\">Over half of sales professionals<\/a> use CRM to build stronger relationships with buyers.<\/p>\n<p>When CRM is used, companies report a 17% increase in lead conversion, a 15% uplift in customer retention and their sales reps are 21% more productive, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webfx.com\/blog\/marketing\/crm-statistics\/\">WebFX found<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite its widespread use, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capterra.com\/resources\/crm-software-buyer-insight\/\">30% say<\/a> their CRM tools are inefficient. And between 20 to 70% of CRM projects fail <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skuid.com\/blog\/top-5-reasons-enterprise-crm-projects-fail\">because they aren\u2019t adopted properly<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But the average ROI for CRM investment is $8.71 for every dollar spent<a href=\"https:\/\/nucleusresearch.com\/research\/single\/crm-pays-back-8-71-for-every-dollar-spent\/\">, according to Nucleus Research<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>AI and Sales Automation Stats<\/h2>\n<p>Sales reps spend an average of two hours a day selling, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hubspot.com\/hubfs\/HubSpots%202024%20Sales%20Trends%20Report.pdf?hubs_signup-url=offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report&amp;hubs_signup-cta=Submit&amp;hubs_offer=offers.hubspot.com\/sales-trends-report&amp;_gl=1*4mbdgf*_gcl_au*Mjg5MzQ4NTMyLjE3NTE4ODMwMjQ.*FPAU*Mjg5MzQ4NTMyLjE3NTE4ODMwMjQ.*_ga*MTgzNjE1MjMyOS4xNzUxODgzMDI1*_ga_LXTM6CQ0XK*czE3NTE4ODMwMjQkbzEkZzEkdDE3NTE4ODM4NTkkajU0JGwwJGgw*_fplc*c0pQQzk2aVBTTXFTcTh6dXFkU0FkOG4wOEVDQ1lzNTVyTkJiNjYwZVcxb1VoTkk0SHN4WUlRenNsZWtqM0VtUTh1Q0lsNHg1S2VKUjBYWnk4RHo3TnBNSjlJNXFYY3pVaThqWVlDeXBaazJ0NllTZDB6YU80ZDBiN0tUcG93JTNEJTNE&amp;_ga=2.4936819.1737098749.1751883025-1836152329.1751883025\">according to research by HubSpot<\/a>. But if they use automation to save themselves two hours a day, they could double their selling time\u2014and results.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, 76% of B2B sales reps say technology is critical to closing deals. And they use five or more sales technologies to do so, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sendtrumpet.com\/blog-posts\/17-b2b-sales-statistics-to-help-you-benchmark\">claims Trumpet<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s clearly the future. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-future-of-commerce.com\/2025\/01\/09\/b2b-sales-2025\/\">Gartner predicts<\/a> that by 2028, 60% of B2B sales work will be done through conversational user interfaces via generative AI sales technologies. In 2023, this was used for just 5% of work.<\/p>\n<h2>Sales Coaching and Training Statistics<\/h2>\n<p>Even the best B2B sellers can benefit from regular sales coaching. <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/how-salespeople-learn?_ga=2.63073260.296361928.1539785110-779901506.1532955232&amp;__hstc=175426365.3279c30eb8f2a7eac6fc94041bf96628.1751645349899.1751645349899.1751876501697.2&amp;__hssc=175426365.19.1751876501697&amp;__hsfp=465778053\">For example<\/a>, nearly 60% don\u2019t change their process once they find one that works for them.<\/p>\n<p>And as the data shows, there\u2019s a disconnect between how sales reps perceive themselves and how prospects experience them: <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/buyers-speak-out-how-sales-needs-to-evolve?_ga=2.110750918.296361928.1539785110-779901506.1532955232&amp;__hstc=175426365.3279c30eb8f2a7eac6fc94041bf96628.1751645349899.1751645349899.1751876501697.2&amp;__hssc=175426365.19.1751876501697&amp;__hsfp=465778053\">50% of salespeople<\/a> say they avoid being pushy, but 84% of buyers have had negative experiences due to pushy salespeople.<\/p>\n<p>But when it\u2019s done well, it has a genuine impact on performance. The reps who receive very good coaching are 50% more likely to achieve or exceed their quota. That\u2019s according to <a href=\"https:\/\/aircall.io\/en-gb\/guides\/state-of-sales-coaching\/\">The State of Sales Coaching in 2025<\/a>, which also found that 38% of sales rep rarely or never receive coaching and the majority (88%) are asking for changes in how they\u2019re coached.<\/p>\n<p>Regular training and coaching are another way to reinforce the ideal culture of your seals team.
