What Is Intent Data? How It Transforms B2B Lead Generation

Learn what intent data is and how it transforms B2B lead generation by identifying companies actively researching solutions like yours.

Traditional lead generation relies on demographic and firmographic data. Intent data adds a crucial dimension: understanding which companies are actively researching solutions like yours right now.

Understanding Intent Data

What Is Intent Data?

Intent data reveals behavioral signals that indicate a company’s interest in specific topics, products, or solutions. Rather than guessing who might need your services, intent data shows who is actively looking.

Types of Intent Signals

First-Party Intent

  • Website visits and page views
  • Content downloads
  • Email engagement
  • Demo requests

Third-Party Intent

  • Content consumption on publisher sites
  • Research activity on review platforms
  • Search behavior patterns
  • Social media engagement

Why Intent Data Matters

  • Right timing: Engage when prospects are researching
  • Higher conversion: Focus on active buyers
  • Better personalization: Know what topics interest them
  • Efficient resources: Prioritize high-intent accounts
