Recommendations for Enriching Personal Email Addresses in CRM

·
·

Any recommendations for providers resolving personal email addresses? So far, I have provided the client a way to enrich the few work emails they have in their CRM, but they’d like to enrich the personal emails, too. They have client communication opt-in, but never collected the right data.

    If i understand correctly, you want to find the names of the people associated with the personal emails, correct? Andreas W.

    Thx for the question! No we have the names + personal email, and the client wants phone numbers. ps: I realize this is not gonna be a great match rate likely, but I want to explore for the client what’s possible.

    You'll have to run a Boolean search. ("First name" AND "LAST name") AND ("personal@email.com") AND ("phone" OR "contact" OR "mobile" OR "tel" OR "call") AND ("+1" OR "###-###-####" OR "(###) ###-####") 1. ("First name" AND "LAST name"): Ensures the search matches both the first and last names. 2. ("personal@email.com"): Matches the specific email address. 3. ("phone" OR "contact" OR "mobile" OR "tel" OR "call"): Searches for variations of phone number labels that might be used on web pages. 4. ("+1" OR "###-###-####" OR "(###) ###-####"): Looks for common phone number formats with and without the country code. This query can be pasted into Google or another search engine to find any publicly available results matching your criteria. Adjust the formats based on your region's typical phone number formats if outside the U.S.

    have you used this in production? What where your hit rates?

    Haven't looked for phone numbers this way. The hit rates would be all over the place because this Boolean search requires multiple matches to take place simultaneously to give a result. That can't be predicted.
