ICP and market segmentation
Define where you win, which accounts belong, and how sales and marketing should prioritize them—using evidence instead of broad firmographic labels.
How the workflow runs
- 01
Find the pattern
Study closed-won, lost, and best-fit customers to isolate the traits behind real success.
- 02
Define the segments
Turn those traits into observable fit, exclusion, and reachability criteria.
- 03
Build the market
Find matching accounts, estimate coverage, and assign tiers with evidence attached.
- 04
Keep it current
Refresh the model as conversion, win/loss, and market conditions change.
Evidence in, action out.
The operating problem
Broad firmographic filters group companies that look alike but differ in need, timing, and ability to buy.
How the workflow runs
Find the traits behind real wins, test them across the market, and turn them into observable segment rules.
Evidence and inputs
Closed-won and lost deals, product strengths, positioning, firmographics, technographics, hiring, regulation, and stakeholder insight.
Actions and handoffs
Define segments, build account universes, estimate coverage, score fit, assign tiers, and document why each account belongs.
Operating outcome
Marketing plans against reachable segments while sales receives accounts matching the same evidence-backed definition.
Controls for production
Set exclusions, evidence thresholds, regional rules, strategic overrides, and scheduled review against pipeline conversion.
Keep the ICP connected to the market
The definition stays linked to customer evidence, account research, and conversion data instead of going stale after the planning cycle.
Company Brain
Retains market evidence, positioning and ICP criteria as the reference for deciding which accounts belong.
Coworkers
Revisit supplied account lists and exact market pages to flag changes in segment fit and refresh account tiers.
Approvals
Segment owners confirm fit evidence and priority tiers before audience records change; runs log the decisions.
