How B2B Brands Win Without Chasing Website Traffic

In Conversation with Eric Lynch

In this episode of E-Coffee with Experts, host Ranmay sits down with Eric Lynch, Principal & Director of Operations at build/create studios, to unpack what actually drives growth in complex B2B sales environments.

Eric shares his journey of bootstrapping an agency from a folding table in his basement to building a focused B2B content and digital strategy firm serving manufacturing and technology companies.

With over a decade of experience, he breaks down why great websites fail without strategy, how long B2B sales cycles really work, and what content keeps prospects engaged for months, even years.

You’ll learn:

  • How to build trust before sales conversations even begin
  • Why traffic is a misleading metric in the age of AI summaries
  • The role of authority content, case studies, and brand perception
  • How to market to engineers, executives, and stakeholders simultaneously
  • Why focusing on conversions beats chasing clicks

If you sell high-consideration B2B services or products, this conversation will change how you think about growth.
