Anticipate Buyer Needs with BuzzBoard’s D Score
To delight your customers, anticipate their needs by knowing what they already use or how to improve their technology with account intelligence delivered in the D Score.
For customized implementations, we build the D Score algorithm in close collaboration with you and your team.
Fully Leverage AI and Machine Learning
While our in-house algorithm generates the D score for new business, as we collect more intelligence the ML/AI capability kicks in and does the heavy lifting from that point onward.
Some examples of various slices for which D Scores can be generated
For SMBs in a given metro or country (e.g. metro Atlanta; USA)
For SMB verticals or micro-verticals (e.g. Dentists-orthodontics)
For SMB firmographic slices (e.g. mid-sized SMBs)
For SMBs that meet a specific test (e.g. those running a specific vendor's product)
For SMBs that compete with a given SMB
Any combination of the above (e.g. multi-location CPAs with over 25 headcount per location, in greater Chicago)
Build Segments for High-Value Personalization with Ease
The D Score helps sales and demand generation teams understand the internal conditions to segment SMBs, instead of external firmographics.
D Score algorithms can be as simple or sophisticated as you want. With firmographic data or totally customized.
