Audience Intelligence: Stop Guessing Who Matters in Your Target Accounts
Most B2B teams waste time on incomplete account data – chasing contacts without understanding the full buying committee.
Our Audience Intelligence approach starts with Buyer Group mapping, giving you a complete view of everyone involved in decisions. This creates the foundation for marketing and sales programs that actually reach the people who matter.
The Foundation of Effective B2B Growth
You can’t build pipeline with bad intelligence. When your team doesn’t know who’s involved in buying decisions, every campaign is a guess, every outreach message falls flat, and deals stall because you’re missing key stakeholders.
Traditional account intelligence gives you company firmographics and contact details. Our Audience Intelligence reveals the complete buying committee—their roles, priorities, influence dynamics, and how to reach them.
This isn’t just better data. It’s the foundation that makes our 3Cs Framework actually work.
What Audience Intelligence Includes
Buyer Group Mapping
We don’t just identify contacts—we map complete buying committees. For every target account, you’ll know:
- Who all the decision-makers are (economic buyers, technical approvers, end users, influencers)
- Their roles, responsibilities, and priorities
- Reporting structures and influence dynamics
- Where your coverage gaps exist
This is our Buyer Group Intelligence (BGI) methodology in action—the intelligence layer that transforms how you engage accounts.
Account Intelligence
Beyond buying committees, we provide the strategic context you need:
- Company priorities and strategic initiatives
- Technology stack and existing vendors
- Growth trajectory and business challenges
- Organizational structure and recent changes
Social Listening & Trend Analysis
Real-time intelligence on what your target accounts care about:
- Topics and themes trending in your ICP
- Keywords and hashtags your buyers are discussing
- Content that’s resonating with decision-makers
- Emerging themes before they become obvious
This feeds directly into the Connect stage of our 3Cs Framework—ensuring you’re relevant before you reach out.
Deep Account Research (DAR)
For strategic accounts that need deeper analysis:
- Executive priorities pulled from earnings calls, interviews, and public statements
- Departmental goals and challenges
- Competitive landscape within the account
- Stakeholder relationships and politics
How Audience Intelligence Powers the 3Cs
Connect: Build Relevance Before Reach
Without knowing who matters and what they care about, your outreach is generic. Audience Intelligence ensures you’re reaching the right people with messages that resonate—because you understand their priorities before you engage.

Converse: Understand Before You Pitch
Discovery conversations are only effective when you already understand the buying committee. Audience Intelligence arms your team with the context needed to ask insightful questions and surface real needs—not waste time on basic research.
Convert: Align Value Across the Committee
Deals close when all stakeholders see value. Audience Intelligence shows you who needs to be aligned, what each role cares about, and how to facilitate internal consensus—not just champion your solution.
Why This Approach Works
Modern B2B buying involves 6-16 stakeholders. When you only have intelligence on one contact, you’re flying blind on the other 5-15 people who influence the decision.
Our Audience Intelligence approach gives you the complete picture:
- Before campaigns launch → you know who to target
- During engagement → you know what resonates
- When deals stall → you know who’s missing
This isn’t just better data—it’s the difference between chasing leads and engaging buying committees.
