The company record brings together all the information about a business. Here is an overview of its various sections.
When you are on a company record, you are on the company’s main establishment, i.e. the registered head office. Any piece of information shown on this record becomes a search criterion in the advanced search.
At the top of the record, beneath the company name, you see the various classifications the company belongs to. These classifications are pre-selections made by Mixdata that become selection criteria in the advanced search: company size (SME, mid-cap, large company), franchise head, network head, group head, international activity, B2B activity, a workplace quality-of-life approach, presence on the stock markets (CAC 40, French Tech 120, etc.), potential digital advertisers (rated 1 to 5) and companies listed on Google Places.
The Identity section brings together all the legal information from the trade and companies register (RCS), INSEE (the French national statistics institute), INPI (the French industrial-property office), and so on. This data is updated day by day.
When you search by company name, Mixdata searches the registered name, but also the trading name, the signs or acronyms, and the registered trademarks shown here. You also have access to the secondary establishments: by clicking this section, you find their SIRET (the 14-digit establishment identifier), their collective agreement, their postal address and their phone number where available. Finally, you can access the graphs of related companies and directors.
The Finances section shows the company’s headline figures, provided it has filed its accounts. Many companies do not file their accounts, far from it: the larger a company, the more likely it is to file; the smaller it is, the less likely.
The headcount figure is independent of the publication of turnover and is far better documented, especially for small companies. So if you want to work on company size, favour the headcount variable over turnover. If the company has published its accounts, you will find the detail in the Detailed balance sheet tab.
This section also shows a financial score produced by our partner Infolégal, which has rated some 3 million companies in Mixdata across three levels of financial risk: low, medium or high. You will also find a short financial analysis along with a recommended credit limit.
The Contacts section is split into three parts, each showing the number of contacts displayed on the right.
The appointed directors, whether individuals or legal entities, are the company’s official directors as recorded in the trade and companies register: data updated day by day.
The social-network profiles show all the company’s employees who have a LinkedIn account and state that they currently work there. The 6 million LinkedIn profiles in Mixdata are updated within three months at most, with continuous crawling. You can filter these contacts by department or by email validity, and run a direct search on a first name, surname or job function. From the record, you can add a contact to an existing or new list, and email the person directly using Generate with AI if you wish.
The departments group together a company’s generic emails, of the info@ or contact@ type, which are very useful for small organisations when no operational contact is available.
The Web and social section shows the various websites linked to the record, each with its own detailed analysis sheet. For each site, you can access the URL, the description, the language versions, the number of pages and any “e-commerce site” label.
The keyword cloud gathers the site’s most recurring keywords; a handy tip: you can copy them and paste them into a semantic query to identify other companies in the same field. You also find the social networks linked to each site and the technologies detected in the source code: more than 800 are analysed and detected, each one available as an advanced-search criterion. The 1,600,000 websites indexed and analysed in Mixdata are updated within three months at most, with continuous crawling.
The Events section shows every event affecting the KBIS (the official company-registration extract), as reported by the BODACC (the French official gazette of civil and commercial announcements): capital increase, merger or acquisition, change of director, and so on. You can access the detail of these publications via the link on the right.
These are all useful signals for starting a sales approach. You can see them on the company record, but you can also, in the advanced search, work specifically on companies that have, for example, completed a merger or acquisition in the past six months or year: a good way to prioritise your prospecting.
This section shows active job offers as well as archived listings. You can run keyword searches within these offers and filter them by source, date or location.
When a company name is found in the headline of a press article via Google News, Mixdata adds a link to the article concerned.
The Similar section shows similar companies based on a score built from the NAF code, any applicable collective agreements, the website keywords, the headcount, the turnover, and so on.
