2026 report: B2B deals stall as buying committees grow to 13 stakeholders

In 2026, B2B deals are slowing down because buying committees have grown to 13 people, making decisions harder and slower. Most buying happens in big teams, with long research periods and lots of stalls before a final choice. AI is helping sales teams move faster and get better leads, with most teams now using AI for research and predictions.

If you can mix creative ideas with data smarts and work with new tech, you'll get ahead. Pure writers risk being left behind as brands want people who can do more and keep up with change.

LinkedIn updates its algorithm, cutting organic reach 50% for 2025

LinkedIn is making it harder to reach people for free, cutting organic reach by 50% in 2025.
