Call Coaching & Recording: Often include features for improving sales calls and training.
Account-Based Marketing (ABM) Platforms (e.g., Demandbase, Terminus, RollWorks):

The Growing Integration Trend
While B2C and B2B lead generation software often have distinct core functionalities, there's a strong trend towards integration and convergence. Many comprehensive platforms (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce) offer "hubs" or modules that cater to both B2C and B2B needs, providing a more holistic view of customer data and streamlining workflows across marketing, sales, and service. This integration allows businesses to:
Centralize Data: Maintain a single source of truth for all lead and customer information.
Automate Handoffs: Seamlessly pass leads from marketing to sales with full context.
Integration with CRM: Seamlessly passes qualified leads and their engagement history to sales teams
