For finding personal profile URLs, you have several options:
Name + Email approach: Use full name and email address with enrichment providers like Datagma's "Find Social Profile" action. This can work but match rates may vary. [1]
Enhanced accuracy: Add company domain as an additional input alongside name and email. You can extract the company domain from the email address, then use it to improve match rates.
Best practice: The most accurate results come from having the person's full name as your "corner piece" - this is the essential identifier for people data enrichment. [2]
Alternative method: If you have limited data, use Claygent and Google searches to find profile URLs based on full name, job title, and company domain.
Test your approach on 5-10 rows first to gauge accuracy before running it on your full dataset.

best practice is using their full name?

Yes, full name is one of the essential "corner pieces" for people data enrichment. [1] For people data, your corner pieces are always personal profile URL and full name.
The full name serves as your essential identifier that allows you to connect and enrich records effectively. [2] Without these corner pieces, you'll struggle to enrich your data effectively.

Yes, that's the right approach! Add a "Find Social Profile" action using full name + company details for best results. [1] Include company name, domain, or social URL as additional inputs to improve accuracy. [2]
Then use Claygent as a fallback for profiles not found. Claygent can search based on full name, job title, and company domain to find missing profile URLs. [3] Test on 5-10 rows first before running your full dataset. [4]

which method is the best ?

The best method is using full name + company details with "Find Social Profile" actions. [1]
For optimal results, include:
Person's full name
Company name, domain, or social URL
Full name is always a "corner piece" for people data enrichment - it's essential for connecting and enriching records effectively. [2] Adding company information significantly improves match rates compared to using name alone. [3]
Use Claygent as your fallback for profiles not found by the primary enrichment.
