  • Identifying the potential new Markets: The first two digits of NAICS or SIC code is an industry title. This information can be used to find similar lines of business to those that a particular B2B enterprise already performs
  • Requesting for a List Quote: Once the marketers have established what their buyer persona looks like, they can request a quote from the NAICS association
  • Hyper-Targeting: The marketers can hyper-target their list by segmenting it further based on geography, annual sales made, number of employees that work for a particular company or by dozens of other popular filters
  • Appending Full Marketing Records: The current customer database of a company can be polished by appending full marketing records to it.

Precise segmentation of market means that a company selling to It professionals in the healthcare, retail & financial industries, for example, can create three different versions of their homepage, each having different hero banner, copy & call-to-action button. It means that hyper-personalizing the experiences for the key accounts or specific decision-makers or leads at a macro level will optimize the users’ experiences (UX) & will also set the stage up for the optimization of sales funnel. Furthermore, hyper-targeted campaigns designed based on firmographic data also would expedite the journeys of the prospects through their buyers’ cycle. Refined firmographic data can also be combined with data collected from the omnichannel marketing endeavors of the prospects. Combined with the demographic, technographic, “fit-data”, psychographic data, past buying histories & research methodologies of the prospects, the firmographic data can be used for the intent-based targeting of the prospects.
