Why Your ICP Matters
Your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) is the foundation of effective prospecting. When properly configured in Insyte, your ICP helps:
- Prioritize search results — Companies matching your ICP appear first
- Power AI recommendations — The research agent uses your ICP for context
- Score companies — See at a glance how well a company matches your criteria
Defining Your ICP
Industries
Select the industries you typically sell into. Be specific — instead of just "Technology," consider selecting "SaaS," "Fintech," or "Healthcare IT."
Company Size
Define your sweet spot by employee count:
- 1-10 — Micro businesses
- 11-50 — Small businesses
- 51-200 — Mid-market
- 201-1000 — Upper mid-market
- 1000+ — Enterprise
Geography
Select the countries and regions where you operate. Insyte covers 25+ countries with strong data in the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, India, and more.
Additional Criteria
Depending on your plan, you can also filter by:
- Funding stage — Seed, Series A, Series B, etc.
- Revenue range — Estimated annual revenue
- Technology stack — Tools and platforms they use
- Growth signals — Hiring trends, funding activity
Best Practices
- Start focused, then expand — Begin with a narrow ICP and widen it once you've validated your approach
- Create multiple ICPs — If you sell to different segments, create an ICP for each
- Review quarterly — Update your ICP as your business evolves and you learn what works
- Use deal data — Look at your best customers to reverse-engineer your ICP
