of salespersons don’t use technographic data.
Here’s a short infographic on what technographic data is, why you should use it, and how to get it.
It is the IT infrastructure of a company, including details of what tools and software a company uses to function.
It is also called tech stack data as it includes information about CRMS, and other B2B tools used by the target accounts.
It can also include information about how long the prospect has used a particular tool. Or how often they modify their tech stack.
B2B Technographics are often used together with firmographics for a clear, complete, and concise understanding of the target account.
You can collect these details using surveys, calls, and emails.
However, surveys can be resource-intensive to scale and validate.
Scrape landing pages using scraping tools to generate data from target company’s website.
This method can be limited by security control on websites.
You can buy from B2B Data providers like ReachStream and ZoomInfo for complete and accurate tech stack data.
These types of platforms provide tech stack data along with company attributes.
Use technographics to understand and pinpoint problems with integration, learning curve, and automation to tailor your pitch.
You can personalize outreach and sales pitch. Identify how the product fits in the tech stack and determine the right touch points.
Get in front of companies that use similar technologies to fill your sales funnel. Identify at-risk accounts and compete with other products.
Curate content that prospects can relate with to increase brand awareness and loyalty.
Sales teams can use technographics to create a compelling cold call and continue incorporating it in their pitches. These insights may include the period a company has used a particular software.
You can segment your total addressable market based on the type of tools your prospects use. Technographics can be utilized to create effective marketing and sales campaigns for focused outreach. Breaking down your TAM can help identify new market segments.
Lead Scoring can include technology used as a criterion. You can utilize a company’s tech stack to determine the kind of lead and, therefore, allocate resources accordingly. For example, accounts using a specific tool are more likely to buy if easy integration is provided.
Technographics help target qualified leads that have a high propensity to buy. Accelerate your sales cycle by prioritizing hot leads and creating compelling sales pitches to close deals quickly.
Actively using technographics can help you prospect quality leads. In other words, you can sell to accounts that gain a lot of value from your product. This leads to higher customer retention and satisfaction.
If you are already selling software, you can use technographics to understand what integrations to provide.
For example, as a B2B data provider, you might want to give integrations with CRMs like Salesforce and HubSpot.
Similarly, you can determine what your competitors are doing, what integrations, features, and plans they provide, and pitch to their accounts by providing better value.
Analyze your prospect’s tech stack to identify where you can add complementary services and features. Bundling is an excellent way to get clients to try different products, increase value and improve customer satisfaction.
You can utilize technographics in almost all parts of ABM: account identification, account intelligence, and account action plan. This is especially effective if you are a SaaS company trying to sell in an already saturated market.
Technographics can help analyze and determine the gaps in the SaaS market. With this analysis, you can create a new product or a feature for your industry.
