ADVICE

Prioritize Company Size And First-Party Intent

  • For static signals, prioritize company size first and geography second; technographics are polish but often optional.
  • Use first-party intent data (demo requests) as the most impactful dynamic input for scoring.
INSIGHT

Aim For Equal Potential Territories Within Segments

  • Build equal-potential territories within defined segments (SMB, mid-market, enterprise) to ensure fair capacity and quota alignment.
  • Jeremy advises segment-level parity rather than stacking the best accounts to top performers long-term.
ANECDOTE
