Comparing Clay/Find People and Sales Navigator for Profile Searches

·Sep 23, 2024 02:41 PM·

Hi Community! Can someone tell me what is the difference between Clay/Find People and the same search in Sales Navigator? I noticed that SalesNav gives more results and I can’t find some profiles on Clay. If this is not a bug, but there is a reason for this, how do you go about importing people from SalesNav search to Clay?

Use a sales navigator scraper (search in this directory) or export the profile urls from sales navigator.

That discrepancy kept nagging at me, so I began looking into it, and it turns out Clay sees profile like a non-premium user or incognito mode. So it seems that to get the full list, I need to use salesnav. Or perhaps there is a way to connect my salesnav account to clay?

Milosz No way, usually, you should follow a flow - Data Source (Sales Navigator + Snov.io, Apollo, etc). We have different data sources, fast and slow. Slow data sources include scraping LinkedIn, while fast sources include Apollo, Clay table. Depending on the market size, you choose a different source. In terms of Edtech, LinkedIn Sales Navigator + Snov.io should be your friend! - CSV - Import to Clay - Enrich - Upload to email sending tool Rock further 😄 PS: Miło zobaczyć kolejnego Polaka działającego global 🇵🇱

A client came to me with a same scenario and I build a custom sales navigator url's data scraper Which uses his own account to scrape data for him. 🙂
