We work in advanced technology B2B, and one of the biggest differences is, in the B2B trade publications the target audience is actually searching for your product/service information...
Trade journals remain one of the top places where professionals first learn about the new products/services they need to do their jobs. They actually scan through the ads as a quick overview of what's new, and then they zero in on what pertains to them specifically.
That's a very different scenario than in B2C, where marketing messages are "in the way" and are not particularly appreciated. There, marketing has to work a lot harder to "get attention."
