Three audience layers

One platform. Three ways to find the buyer.

SPEAR resolves audiences three ways — by company, by intent signal, and by physical location — and stitches them into one addressable target across display, video, CTV, native, and audio.

Layer 01 · Account

IP-to-Company resolution

Upload a target account list. SPEAR resolves each company to its corporate IP ranges and starts serving ads to every device on those networks.

  • ABM-ready in 15 minutes
  • Multi-location enterprise mapping
  • Subsidiary & holding-co relationships
Layer 02 · Intent

Behavioral intent signals

Bombora topic feeds plus first-party search and content behavior tell us which accounts are actively researching your category right now — before they hit your form.

  • Bombora B2B intent integration
  • Search & content behavior tracking
  • Daily intent-score refresh
Layer 03 · Location

Building-address targeting

Need to reach attendees of a trade show, visitors to a competitor, or buyers inside a specific medical building? We target by precise building addresses, not blunt ZIPs.

  • Conference & event targeting
  • Competitive-conquest campaigns
  • Medical, B2B campus & retail
Why SPEAR vs. generic ABM tools

Built for marketers who need answers, not dashboards that need explaining.

01

Owned data, not rented

30 years of compounding device-graph data. We don't buy a third-party ID provider — we are one. That means lower CPMs, higher match rates, no surprise data-fee passthroughs.

02

Cookieless from day one

SPEAR resolves IP and device signals — never relied on third-party cookies. Apple's tracking changes, Chrome's deprecation, GDPR — none of it breaks the targeting model.

03

Real humans, real reporting

You get an account strategist, not a chatbot. Weekly reads on which accounts engaged, which hit the site, which moved into pipeline — written in English, not adtech jargon.

The Method · 4 phases

Live in 15 minutes. Iterating by week two.

A proven onboarding cadence that gets your first SPEAR map in front of you the same day, with creative shipped and audiences live before week one closes.

i.

Map (Day 0)

You send your target-account list or ICP. We resolve to corporate IPs, identify buying-committee titles, score each account on intent.

ii.

Build (Days 1–4)

Creative review, audience segmentation by tier (Tier 1 / Tier 2 / Open Accounts), pixel install, conversion events wired into your CRM.

iii.

Launch (Day 5)

Display, video, CTV, native, and audio go live across the named-account list. Frequency capped per account, not per device.

iv.

Compound (Weekly)

Weekly account-engagement read, creative rotation, intent-trigger refresh, retargeting layer expansion as new accounts heat up.

What's inside every SPEAR engagement

Six workstreams. One account strategist owning all of them.

Workstream 01

Account-list resolution

Domain → corporate IP ranges → device graph. Includes subsidiary mapping for holding companies.

Workstream 02

Intent-signal layering

Bombora topics, search behavior, and on-site engagement scored daily into a single account heat metric.

Workstream 03

Creative & messaging

Per-tier creative variants. Industry-specific message frames. Compliant for finance, healthcare, and political verticals.

Workstream 04

Multi-channel activation

Display, video, CTV (Hulu, Disney, Roku, Samsung), native, and audio — frequency-capped at the account level.

Workstream 05

CRM integration

HubSpot, Salesforce, Marketo. Account-engagement scores written back so your sellers see warm accounts first.

Workstream 06

Reporting & strategy

Weekly account-tier engagement read. Monthly strategy session. Quarterly territory & ICP refinement.

SPEAR is the spine — these channels do the rest.

Frequently asked

SPEAR, without the adtech mystery.

How is SPEAR different from LinkedIn or 6sense ABM?

LinkedIn limits you to one channel and one identity graph. 6sense and Demandbase license third-party data layers that we built ourselves over 30 years. SPEAR runs across display, video, CTV, native, and audio — frequency-capped at the account level — and we don't pass through third-party data fees because we are the data source.

Will it work with my CRM and marketing automation?

Yes. We integrate with HubSpot, Salesforce, Marketo, and Pardot natively. Account-engagement scores write back to the account record so your sellers see which accounts are in-market this week.

What's the minimum target-account list?

50 named accounts is the floor for a meaningful program. Most clients run between 200 and 2,000. Above 5,000 we usually recommend tiering the list and concentrating creative on Tier 1 first.

Is SPEAR cookieless and privacy-compliant?

Yes. SPEAR resolves at the IP and device-graph layer and does not depend on third-party cookies. The platform is GDPR and CCPA compliant. We do not collect or store PII without explicit user consent.

How fast can I see results?

Account map in 15 minutes. Live ads in 5–7 days. First account-engagement read at end of week two. Pipeline impact typically shows in the 60–90 day window.

What does it cost?

Programs start at $1,000/mo minimum and scale by media spend, list size, and creative complexity. Most B2B clients land between $5K and $25K/mo. We bill transparently — managed-services fee plus media at cost.

Can SPEAR work for B2C?

Yes — particularly for high-consideration B2C (auto, healthcare, education, hospitality) where building-address targeting and Bombora topics still apply. Pure DTC e-commerce usually pairs SPEAR with Paid Search and Social rather than running it solo.

Do you require long-term contracts?

No. Month-to-month after a 90-day initial period so we can stand the program up properly. Cancel any time with 30 days notice.

Ready to see your buyers?

Bring a list. We'll map it live on a 15-minute call. $1,000/mo floor, no long-term contracts.
