A Growing Challenge

Small-to-medium enterprises—companies with up to 500 employees—are the foundation of business. They account for over 65% of the GDP; 99% of jobs; and hire nearly half of all of the high-tech workers, scientists, engineers, and computer programmers in the U.S. These companies are also voracious consumers of products and services and use the internet to make the vast majority of their product-purchasing decisions. This difficult-to-reach audience can prove challenging for marketers and sales organizations to connect with and engage.

Over 20 million buyers turn to Business.com to discover, compare, and purchase the products and services they need to run and grow their businesses. These powerful buyers come to Business.com to cut through the clutter of online search results and avoid having to sort out the myriad individual vendor sites.
