KickFire now integrates with G2 to power additional company identification allowing their customers to discover more in-market buyers visiting their profiles and engaging with their content — regardless of location.
San Jose, CA – KickFire®, the leader in IP address intelligence™ and company identification technology, announces today that their powerful technology will now be integrated into G2’s first-party intent platform to identify more in-market buyers and drive better sales and marketing opportunities.
Through the integration with KickFire’s robust IP-to-Company API, G2 customers will gain in-depth visibility into even more of the companies that are currently researching their products as well as those of their competitors. In addition, accounts showing increased interest can be added directly to a company’s CRM, marketing automation platform, ABM solution, and more allowing for perfectly timed outreach by sales and marketing campaigns. This valuable buyer intent data combined with KickFire’s detailed firmographic information allows G2 customers to reach out to more in-market accounts early in the buying process with tailored messaging that resonates with their target audience.
“G2.com is the essential global marketplace for B2B technology, visited by 5M+ unique buyers each month looking to find the right software solutions,” says Patrick Barnes, Senior Director of Product for G2. “By increasing the number of companies we can now identify — especially those working remotely — this integration makes G2 Buyer Intent some of the most valuable and actionable data available to marketers today.”
“The majority of today’s technology buyers begin their research on online review websites. The name ‘G2’ has become synonymous with excellence in the space. As such, their traffic represents a gold mine of in-market buyers,” said Tina Bean, KickFire Co-Founder and Vice President of Strategic Business Development. “G2 uses KickFire’s IP address intelligence to deanonymize website visitors in real-time, enabling them to serve-up the warmest leads possible to their clients. We’re proud to be on this journey with them.”
