Based on a review of current industry analytical publications, the authors demonstrate that the digital transformation of logistics infrastructure, the growth of e-commerce, and the expansion of warehouse capacity are creating a sustainable demand for warehouse equipment and require a transition from fragmented use of digital channels to integrated marketing strategies. The study is based on a conceptual analysis, as well as data from one of the key participants in the warehouse equipment market, which allows us to demonstrate differences in the segment structure in terms of sales and the number of contracts concluded and justify the need for deep segmentation and personalization of communications. The authors identify the following key goals for digital marketing in the B2B warehouse equipment segment: developing and strengthening an expert image; generating and updating leads that match the ideal client profile; optimizing customer acquisition and retention costs; and increasing customer engagement through long-term partnerships. A step-by-step model for developing an integrated digital strategy is proposed, including target audience analysis, SMART goal setting, funnel and content map design, channel selection and integration (SEO, content marketing, SMM, email, PPC, professional platforms), as well as the implementation of CRM and marketing automation tools. It has been shown that synchronizing digital marketing tools with sales stages creates a continuous process from lead generation to closing a deal and is a sustainable competitive advantage for manufacturers and suppliers of warehouse equipment in the Russian market.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article is devoted to the analysis of the specifics of the use of digital marketing tools in the Russian warehouse equipment market, which belongs to the capital-intensive B2B segment with a long sales cycle and many decision-making participants.
