Ever wish you could understand your prospects better—what’s keeping them up at night, what sparks their interest, and when they’re ready to act? You don’t need a crystal ball; you need intent data. But let’s take it a step further. Instead of just using intent signals, what if you could anticipate your buyer’s next move?

From Signals to Strategy: Rethinking Intent Data

Intent data tells you what your prospects are exploring. But to craft strategies that resonate, you need the full story. Layering intent with firmographics, technographics, and Predictiv’s analytics creates the ultimate playbook for targeting high-value accounts.

  • Firmographics define who your prospects are—industry, company size, and location.
  • Technographics uncover how they operate—highlighting their tech stack and software tools.
  • Analytics provide what to prioritize—including TAM (Total Addressable Market) insights, engaged accounts, and intent topics, giving you a focused approach.

Example:
Imagine a prospect researching cloud migration. Intent data says they’re interested, but their firmographics (a mid-sized company in rapid growth) and technographics (already using AWS) reveal an opportunity to position your solution as a seamless add-on. With Predictiv’s analytics showing this account among your top 10 engaged accounts, the decision to prioritize becomes clear.

Turning Insights into Buyer-Centric Actions

To stand out, your strategy needs to move from reacting to intent to anticipating needs. Here’s how:

1. Leverage TAM Reports for Strategic Targeting

Predictiv’s analytics includes a total addressable market (TAM) report based on intent data—an invaluable tool for identifying the accounts most aligned with your offering. The report highlights:

  • Top 10 engaged accounts actively exploring relevant topics.
  • Top 10 intent topics driving market interest, helping you refine your messaging and campaigns.

With these insights, you can form a precise Target Account List (TAL), filtering further by firmographics and technographics to focus on accounts with the best potential ROI.

2. Unify Data for Richer Context

Intent signals alone won’t tell you if a lead is a good fit or just browsing. Combining intent with firmographics and technographics ensures you focus on high-value prospects who are both interested and aligned with your product.

Predictiv tracks 30,000+ technographics and integrates them with firmographic insights, giving you a full context of your buyer’s profile.

3. Personalize Outreach Like Never Before

Knowing what prospects want is just the beginning. With layered data and Predictiv’s analytics, you can tailor your messaging to fit their exact needs.

  • A high-intent signal from a Fortune 500 company calls for enterprise-level personalization, while a small business might need a simplified, value-focused approach.
  • Use technographic insights to craft campaigns that highlight integrations or solve gaps in their current tools.

4. Align ABM Strategies with Multi-Layered Insights

Account-Based Marketing thrives on precision, and layered data ensures every account in your ABM strategy is worth the effort. Predictiv’s analytics let you:

  • Spot high-value accounts showing intent to engage with your competitors.
  • Track campaign performance by segment to continuously refine your strategy.
  • Use TAM reports and the top 10 engaged accounts list to ensure your ABM efforts are targeted toward accounts with the highest likelihood to convert.
