This has led to the assumption that B2B buyers care more about the numbers, ROI and corporate alignment than whether he or she personally identifies or connects with the service or product offered.

In fact, Kapost proposes that emotion, personal value and individual connection is a profitable tool to be wielded by B2B marketers.
