hi, I was wondering what would be the best data provider to find dentist, dental practice owners, and office managers of dental practices? This is a challenging segment to get quality data for, so any guidance is much appreciated.
For dental practices and their staff, traditional data providers may have limited or questionable accuracy in their coverage. This is a common challenge when targeting SMB segments like dental offices. However, we can help you achieve better data coverage through our platform, as we use multiple data providers and waterfall them for comprehensive coverage. Our approach typically doubles or triples data coverage compared to single-provider solutions, and at a significantly lower cost. Given the specific nature of your target segment, you might want to consider a combined approach using multiple data enrichment tools available in our platform. This will help ensure you get the most comprehensive and accurate data possible while maintaining cost efficiency.
The data from the dental practice sites are usually role based emails or shared inboxes (horrible for reply rates), these practices rarely have a linkedin page, although a lot of them have facebook pages. I would like to find the mobile numbers of the dentists or dental practice owners but hard to find. Searching by domain/website it things like Apollo is giving limited results. What would be the best waterfall order for this? '
For finding mobile numbers of dentists and practice owners, here's the recommended waterfall approach: 1. Start with ContactOut if you have LinkedIn URLs, as it specializes in finding mobile numbers from LinkedIn profiles. 2. Use Datagma with either: • LinkedIn/Sales Navigator URLs • Work/personal email addresses (if available) 3. Try additional providers in this order: • People Data Labs • Forager (using social profiles) • ClearoutPhone (to verify numbers) Since Facebook pages are more common for dental practices, you can use these as additional data points to help identify and verify the right contacts through these providers.
Hey Nik you tried scraping Google maps data?
Yes, Google Maps can be a valuable source for finding dental practices! Here's how you can use it in Clay: 1. Set up your search parameters: • Choose your target location • Set a specific search radius • Select "Dentist" as the business category Once you pull the Google Maps listings into Clay, you can: ** Get business details like name, address, phone numbers, and website links ** Find business owners using Claygent (Clay's AI web researcher) * Use Clay's waterfall enrichment to find work emails This approach is particularly effective for local businesses like dental practices that may have limited LinkedIn presence but maintain Google Maps listings. You can create detailed sales profiles and contact information for each practice.
Khawaja F. yea that’s where I got the original list but it just has the generic emails. Ideally looking for the direct or mobile numbers of dentists so that stuff usually isn’t scrapable.
Here's the recommended waterfall approach to find mobile numbers when you only have generic emails: 1. Start with Datagma using the work email addresses you have from the dental practices. 2. Use a combination of these providers in sequence for better coverage: • ContactOut • Forager • BetterContact • ZoomInfo 3. For work emails, first try enriching with: • Apollo.io • Clearbit • BetterContact Then use those enriched work emails to run another pass through the mobile number providers. Remember to test your waterfall on a small sample first to optimize the sequence based on which providers give the best results for your specific dental practice dataset.
