What Are Firmographics (and How to Filter By Them)?

Last verified · 2026-06-24

The short answer

Firmographics are company-level attributes used to segment B2B accounts: industry, employee headcount, revenue, location, growth stage, and technology stack. They're the B2B equivalent of demographics. You filter by firmographics to target the right accounts, then layer job-title filters to reach the right people inside them. Trackyr's B2B people search filters by firmographics and role together.

Firmographics are demographics for companies

Where demographics describe a person (age, location, income), firmographics describe an organization. They're the foundation of B2B targeting because your buyer's company shape predicts whether they need what you sell.

Filter accounts first, then people

The right sequence is account-first: use firmographics to narrow to the companies that fit, then apply job-title filters to find the decision-makers inside them. Doing it the other way produces a list of right-title people at wrong-fit companies.

Combine for precision

  1. Set firmographic filters to define the target account set.
  2. Layer title and seniority filters to find the buyers.
  3. Verify each contact's email and phone.
  4. Score contactability and export the tight list.
Trackyr's B2B people search lets you filter by firmographics and role in one pass, so the list you export is both right-company and right-person.

What's the difference between firmographics and demographics?+

Firmographics describe a company (industry, size, revenue, location). Demographics describe a person. B2B targeting starts firmographic, then narrows to the right people by title.

Which firmographic matters most?+

It depends on your offer, but industry and headcount are the most common primary filters because they predict relevance and buying complexity.

Can I filter by firmographics and title together?+

Yes. Trackyr's B2B people search combines firmographic and role filters in one query so you target the right person at the right company.
