Mastering Firmographics: A New Frontier in Deal Origination

Understanding Firmographics

Firmographics are essentially the demographic attributes applied to companies. Similar to how demographics analyze individual characteristics, firmographics concentrate on the qualities of organizations. A crucial aspect of firmographic information is identifying the industry a company belongs to. At USP Data, over 1000 researched reports are available, offering a detailed view beyond the standard SIC sector classifications. This enhanced focus on the most vital firmographic element is so integral that it inspired our name: Unique Sector Performance Data Limited. The USP Data application features:

  1. Over 1000 Researched Sector Reports
  2. 730 SIC Code Listings
  3. Financial Selectors, including 42 Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet Items, and Key Performance Indicators
  4. Geographical Selectors like Region, Proximity to a Specific Postcode, and County
  5. Shareholder Details - Age, Ownership Percentage, Shareholder Count, and Group Company Affiliations
  6. Keywords derived from business descriptions and company websites. USP Data is designed for the custom combination of these selectors to efficiently target relevant firms.


Firmographics' Importance in Deal Origination

With USP Data, extensive firmographic options allow for tailored search criteria, which can be saved for future use. This ensures quick access to pertinent companies. As USP Data covers over 5.3 million active UK companies, having precise firmographic tools is crucial for rapidly identifying attractive firms that meet specific criteria. The integration of these selections with the built-in CRM enables concurrent management of multiple project searches and easy sharing of findings with team members. Segmenting businesses has never been more straightforward.

Utilizing Firmographic Insights

Firmographic data is invaluable for informed decision-making and efficient business segmentation. By crafting appropriate search criteria in USP Data, relevant niche shortlists can be quickly generated. Upon identifying potential firms, comparative analysis reports can be produced, or data can be exported for further examination. The niche search analysis provides insights into financial trends and potential, facilitating comparison with broader sector data available through researched or SIC-based reports. Additionally, these niche reports can highlight opportunities for a buy-and-build strategy within a sector.



Approaching Potential Opportunities

With USP Data, unlimited access to necessary data allows for the extraction of contact details for key shareholders or directors. This data can be exported in customizable formats. Many users have found that contacting main shareholders at their home addresses is an effective strategy for initiating discussions about succession plans.
