How to set up a Topic Intent campaign

3 min. readlast update: 10.18.2023

Topic Intent is a type of Intent Data based on the content on websites that individuals from companies are consuming. This data is collected in context, so if there is an increase in a company-level consumption on a certain topic (the ones you have chosen in context), this increase can be "learned" by data collection machines and returned to your business as an indicator that the company is researching solutions like yours.

This means that you can add "topics" that relate to your business product or services into your search filters and over 7000 "topics" are monitored for you, you just pick the ones that are relevant to your market and your platform dashboard will return the results.  

Topic Intent data will work alongside Social and Public Intent data, to show you which companies are showing high intent to buy, you can identify these using the Surge feature (Intent>Surge).
