Oh sorry I messed up with names, apologies for that!
Well, your approach seems to me very interesting! If you are available to have a call for me it's perfect!! So, I'm looking forward for that!
Thanks
Michele
Hi Jarek O. thank you so much for your advice. I had a feeling that using Clay wasn't enough, even though the results I tested yesterday weren't bad at all. But your approach seems much more refined. What's not clear to me is what you mean when you say "paginate the Main directory page." In my experience, scrappers have trouble retrieving pages from the directories that collect addresses and paginate the results. I think you're referring to this problem, but it's not clear to me how you solve it.
In any case, thanks and have a good day!!

Okay, it seems like I'm talking nonsense, but actually, a few weeks ago, I found very few results. Now I've tried again, and for example, by searching for tobacco shops, I find a lot, which seems very reliable. I'll do some more tests.
Hi Muhannad A. well I thought I check it few weeks ago ... ok I will take a look again.
My dubt is mainly about "Italy", sometimes US apps are not so accurate for EU countries purpose.
But ok, thank you, have a nice day 😉
Hi! Today I'm plucking up the courage to make a request, but first, a brief introduction.
I've only been learning Clay for a couple of months. I'm really new to it, especially since I'm only using the free plan, and only in my spare time after my 48-hour work week do I frankly struggle with complex tasks. Sorry about that ;-)
Question: is Clay the right tool for finding contacts for small businesses like small local shops? I'm interested in the Italian market and I'm concerned that Clay doesn't have enough contacts for this type of target audience in Italy.
I haven't been able to test how it works with Maps because it seems to be a feature reserved for paid subscriptions, not the free plan. Can anyone help me with some suggestions on this topic?
Thanks and have a good start to the week.

Thank you Jingjing! Really appreciated your advices. Actually I’m following the lessons in 101 and I started also to find very small batches of data, like companies and then try to find people in a specific role in the companies. So, let see what happens
Have a nice weekend
Michele
