Because B2B is known for long and complex sales cycles, there are opportunities for organizations to uncover “points of friction” when it comes to adapting to prospects’ decision-making process. To uncover any potential customer friction in your organization – and enable a more confident, efficient buying cycle – consider these three strategies. 1. **Map and evaluate your customer journey.** Have someone not familiar with your organization move through the different steps that must be taken to engage with your company. 2. **Gather information from internal and external sources.** Sit down with internal and external stakeholders to uncover what they believe friction points are. 3. **Take a deep dive into your metrics.** Oftentimes, a simple look at website metrics will reveal a lot of insights into customer friction points.  [Read more about this topic at MIT Sloan Management Review.](https://sloanreview.mit.edu/article/why-customer-experience-matters-for-b2b/) Don’t forget to share this post!
