Set intent you can act on this quarter
Customers, integration partners, resellers, implementation partners, design partners, referral partners, distribution — choose the ones you would genuinely act on if a fitting request arrived tomorrow. Intent you cannot honour creates requests you will decline, and declined requests are a cost to both sides.
Describe a need the way a buyer would
If you are the business with the need — a tool to replace, a partner to find, a capability to add — describe the problem, the profile of company that should respond and the timeframe. Structured needs get structured, relevant responses.
Respond with the right request
Request Meeting when you want to talk. Request Quote when the need is defined. Request Introduction when a shared contact should make the connection. Request Partnership when the opportunity is a longer relationship. Each carries your B2B ID, so the receiving business sees fit before it decides.
Accept, decline, and keep your intent current
There is no unrestricted inbox on B2B.ID. You see requests with context and accept or decline. Review your "looking for" field whenever priorities change, so the opportunities you see and the requests you receive stay relevant.
