Have a target prospect list? Targeted NAICS code list? Looking for customers of a specific revenue size? Smart Zones can put you in front of them because we have 19 million businesses already mapped into qualified, target-ready audiences.

I know what you’re thinking: this sounds different…it sounds new….but how do I know it works, and works for business-to-business digital marketing?

It’s a great question, and you’re not the first to ask. That’s why we’ve created these FAQs for inquiring minds like yours.

Q: HOW does Smart Zones “map” millions of businesses?

A: Thanks to a patented genetic modeling process, concentrations of businesses with similar attributes are aggregated and mapped into clusters.

The process creates over 26 million Smart Zones, and each is scored against business firmographics such as revenue, number of employees and NAICS2 Code. The scoring process defines virtual clusters of IP Addresses that correlate to a business vertical or individual business category to target online.

Smart Zones allows audiences to be defined by NAICS Category down to six digits as well as by revenue and number of employees.

# IP Addresses # Smart Zones

Smart Zones for Business provides sub-zip code level targeting resolution, categorizing 19 million U.S. businesses with annual revenues above $500K.

1 Firmographics are the characteristics of an organization especially when used to segment markets in market research. What demographics are to people, firmographics are to organizations. Commonly used firmographics include employee size, revenue size, industry, number of locations and location of headquarters. Distributions of values within a firmographic variable, and across organizations, are both of interest, as well as trends over time. Source: Wikipedia.org.

2 The North American Industry Classification System or NAICS (pronounced “nakes”) is used by business and government to classify business establishments according to type of economic activity in Canada, Mexico and the United States. It has largely replaced the older Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system; however, certain government departments and agencies, such as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), still use the SIC codes. ource: Wikipedia.org.
