Anyone figured out how to find headcount for a specific area like London? The headcount by criteria does not work well at all.
If you scrape the full company headcount, (for best coverage, I'd use Sales Nav Advanced to upload company list, scrape all the contacts via a sheet of Sales nav Urls and then scrape all contacts actively working at company with something like phantombuster ) put this list in a different table, and then standardise the locations with gpt to be City only, you can run a multi-row lookup against that table, using desired location name. The number of results is your number per region.
what happens if I don't have sales navigator
Got Apollo?
only free version at the moment
so encountering this issue
Yeah it's a real limitation to be mindful of - basically, Clay's 'find people' is roughly 60% coverage of the truth, So is Apollo. You can run it in Clay, but the margin of error is pronounced when running at scale. Claygent also struggles with this. I have found Sales Nav scraping to be the best way for coverage. If it's important, would suggest considering sales nav, if tight accuracy isn't, but you want slightly better than clay consider Apollo, as it's faster to run lists in there. Ultimately, if you can't do those things, depending on what you want to do changing tactic might save you some bother. Just my experience, interested if others have a workaround.
finding the same, Clay's find people hasn't seemed to be the best
Just a rough average I've experienced when running people searches for specific company lists in Apollo. I
I've not baselined this in a while though
The thing to be mindful of in this context is the API caps out at 10 results (or something like that), so you'd need to run a more elaborate sequence within Clay / make process doing it that way. if I want the full picture for a company I would normally go outside of clay to list build.
may have changed, not tried the api in a few months for Apollo for this kind of thing. (api rate limits = pain)
Yea I've done it recently it's a major pain haha
What about if you don't already have a company list and are just making a people list from scratch
Do you also find Sales nav has more then apollo?
