“Understanding the market potential for your product or service lets you set realistic sales and revenue goals. This understanding must be more than a superficial market definition. It needs to be specific. Knowing the exact companies that make up your total addressable market is essential to setting goals. Without this, it is impossible to effectively plan, set realistic targets and track progress.”
Identify the Exact Companies in your Total Addressable Market
Developing a successful lead generation program starts with target market research to provide you with a clear understanding of your Total Addressable Market (TAM) and your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). Once your TAM and ICP are defined you might be tempted to start your lead generation campaign targeting the entire audience. But there is another critical step you must take first — segmenting your TAM and prioritizing the market segments that are likely to be the best fit.
By segmenting and prioritizing your target account lists you can better structure and measure your lead generation program. This allows you to focus your lead generation efforts on those high-value targets and achieve the best economic return on your efforts. Well defined and managed market targeting is essential for lead generation success.

Why Defining Your Total Addressable Market Matters
Focused and Efficient Outreach
If you don’t clearly define your Total Addressable Market (TAM), you’ll waste valuable time calling on companies and contacts that will never buy your product or service, because they don’t have the right characteristics.
Clearly defining your TAM gives you the foundation on which to build a successful B2B lead generation program that will ensure you meet your sales and revenue goals.
In other words, find and focus on prospects who “fit.”
Why Does Target Market Segmenting Matter?
Prioritize your Sales Efforts on the Best Opportunities
Data segmentation is essential to identifying and managing a lead generation program’s success and to ensure you are focused on the segments that represent your best opportunities. When developing segmentation strategies, you should consider the following characteristics when prioritizing individual segments:
- Revenue potential – Accounts most likely to spend more, either through the initial purchase or over time.
- Selling resources required – Accounts that won’t cost as much to close.
- Buying journey stage – Opportunities further along in the buyer’s journey and most likely to close faster.
- Firmographic fit – Accounts with the right demographics and geographics, including characteristics like number of employees, number of clients, industry, technologies used, organization type, and location.
- Engagement – Accounts that have already engaged with your company (webinar attendees, tradeshow booth visitors).
- Intent – Accounts that are consuming third-party content online related to your products or services.
- Engagement history – Nurture the accounts where there has been previous engagement.
Segment level performance will be a key component of overall program performance over time, but in the short term, it will help you quickly identify those characteristics of your market that you want to prioritize first.
