Five reasons to use Enhanced Intent to connect with in-market buyers

Written by Anteriad | January 12, 2024

Companies are tired of guesswork when trying to filter through the noise of identifying the buying patterns of their target customers. With buying cycles increasing and purchasing decisions taking longer, accurately targeting companies that are currently in market is vital to accelerate pipeline and revenue generation.

The value of intent data in B2B sales:

Traditional intent data refers to information that provides anonymous signals and insights into the online behavior and activities of individuals or companies. It reveals the specific actions and signals that indicate a potential interest or intention to purchase a product or service. This data is typically collected from various online sources, such as website visits, search queries, content downloads, social media interactions, and more.

In B2B sales, intent data is invaluable when trying to identify high-potential leads as it provides sales teams with a deeper understanding of consumer behavior and buying intent. This leads to more precise targeting, highly personalized messaging, and offers tailored to address specific pain points and challenges potential customers are facing.

What sets Enhanced Intent apart from other intent data solutions?

Currently piloting in EMEA only, Enhanced Intent is a different approach to collecting and processing intent signals and this is because it is firstly based around multilingual human verified conversations that have verified GDPR compliance. Thousands of conversations each month are then analyzed by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning tools to digitally verify the human-collected intent.

Unlike traditional intent that can be layered onto firmographic and technographic data in marketing automation platforms, Enhanced Intent is only available as part of a digital media spend and not as a feed. Using Enhanced Intent for advanced segmentation of ideal customer profiles, companies that have been flagged with human and AI verified intent are targeted programmatically and socially and those companies that engage with your brand, product are service are then further called to verify intent and consent. Those contacts are then passed back as compliant opportunities to call by the client.
