Predictive Modeling

Spot buyers from the very beginning of their research. Meet them at every step of their journey armed with the details to build influence and win more deals.

Poor timing kills deals

As marketing and sales leaders, you’re expected to have a knack for knowing which accounts to target. You need to figure out where buyers are in their journey, and what kind of messaging will actually get their attention.

Understand the buying journey

Predictive Modeling uses 6AI™ to interpret the myriad telltale signs of buying activity that pulse through the Signalverse™. It then determines the buying stage of each account so you can master the fundamental questions:

  • Who should I prioritize?
  • What should I say?
  • When should I say it?

Get those answers right, and your sales volume, average contract value, and deal velocity soar.

Predictive Modeling turns data into action

Every day, 6sense’s Signalverse collects over a trillion pieces of B2B data. 6AI ties that data to specific accounts and contacts, then uses Predictive Modeling to analyze which accounts share the characteristics and behaviors of your best customers.

Predictive Modeling scores opportunities using factors including:

  • ICP-fit
  • Which key buying personas are engaged
  • Buying stage
  • Revenue potential

These characteristics help your marketing and sales teams prioritize and tailor campaigns and outreach.
