Understanding Clay Credits for Home Service Email Lists

Hello all. Is there someone Here, who can explain to me how Clay credits work? My issue is that the email lists that we need to get are notoriously difficult because these are home service providers. Plumbers, electricians, and roofers typically don't have emails listed on their websites. So, if I do 2000 searches and only 15% have emails listed, and I use all my credits, that's going to be a very expensive way to get an email list. So I'm just curious if someone can help me figure this out.

Hey Marc, a lot of providers in clay refund the credits used if there's no valid email found so that you don't fall into this exact scenario. I believe there may be a couple exceptions. Worth noting that a bunch of providers will likely struggle to pull data for your icp if they don't have a LinkedIn presence. Might be worth looking into some more niche options or testing a few via a waterfall in clay?

also if you sign up to a paid plan for the first time with a referral link (i have one but there's loads floating around) you'll get 3k bonus credits to test with 🙂 enjou

and ok so you're in a good starting place. think of sales nav and apify as the source, clay is the bridge between that data (which will be quite patchy, not enriched etc.) and the data you want to export to your CRM or a CSV (fully enriched, valid emails) etc. etc. So you can pull your sales nav leads into clay via apify or otherwise as a starting point. from there you can go crazy inside of clay with enrichments or AI depending on what info you want about them. for service businesses it could be getting data about how many physical locations they have via claygent or whatever other data points you care about for either qualification or personalisation research. Am I making sense?
