my bad folks, thought this was info gathering not a hiring ask

or I can provide intros

reach out to each on linkedin if you're looking to hire

yes - all 3 of those are examples

oh yeah for sure Joel M. or Elijah Awoke are great examples. Oliver Johnson too - all 3 went from SDR to GTME skillsets. I think it's going to be a lucrative future too as the phone will be human only for a long time as it's illegal for AI to cold call in the US and in most g20 countries it already is or will be illegal.

ishrak h. try using Zapier or Make webhooks to catch data from Clay and pipe those into Salesforce (lower barrier to entry on pricing). My understanding is you need the data in SF to load it to Orum. Clay's Salesforce hookup is awesome but expensive to get access to (Arpit C. feature feedback: what if Clay sold Salesforce connector as a separate add-on? ) so you can easily use clay for the awesome AI research steps and then bring it to Salesforce via another tool for $50-100 more per month ish

So much to say on this since Clay is not monolithic and you can run any mobile/phone data provider through it. Read Jacob T.’s blog here https://www.clay.com/blog/best-mobile-phone-data Leadmagic and Forager have the fewest wrong numbers. Some things have changed since he published that though. Some vendors have tanked. Others have popped up. Datagma has solid data as well. Those 3 should get you to 4-6% connect rates consistently. Upcell (16 credits but worth it) will get you to 8-10% connect rates. You can use your ZoomInfo license inside of Clay too, same for Cognism I believe. There are other tools for validation beyond this as well.

then use Adyntel and SEMRush to get ad data

there are also competitor waterfalls

recommend using AI, via an API like Gemini
