B2B climate tech buyers are more emotionally driven than they admit.
According to Gartner's latest B2B buying research, 86% of buyers see little-to-no difference between suppliers' technical specifications. Yet, Boston Consulting Group reports that climate tech companies with strong brand trust command 23% higher contract values.
The truth? Enterprise buyers justify decisions with data but buy based on:
- Brand trust
- Peer adoption signals
- Personal career risk
- Implementation confidence
This is why the fastest-growing climate tech companies invest heavily in:
- Customer success stories
- Implementation case studies
- Risk-free pilot programs
- Brand trust building
McKinsey's research confirms: Climate tech companies that focus on emotional drivers in their enterprise marketing see 31% faster sales cycles.
