    Hey, thanks for reaching out! Curious what you're trying to do here? It sounds like you’re trying to target the followers of a specific company on LinkedIn. Unfortunately, Clay doesn’t support extracting or directly targeting LinkedIn followers, as LinkedIn doesn’t provide public access to follower lists, you can extract your own company's followers with Phantombuster However, if you’re trying to reach employees of a company or people connected to it, you can use Clay’s enrichment tools to find relevant contacts through other data sources (like LinkedIn URLs, websites, etc.). Let me know if you had something else in mind or if I can assist with another approach! 😊

    Recently, I received a cold email that started with, 'I noticed you’re following SmartLead on LinkedIn.' It made me curious how they knew I was following SmartLead. Any ideas? I really like this approach and would love to use a similar strategy to target the followers of my competitors.

    They likely used tools like Apify or Phantombuster to extract data from LinkedIn, such as people who liked or engaged with a company’s posts. These tools can track post interactions, and if you’ve liked any of SmartLead’s posts, they could have identified you as a follower or someone interested in their content. If you’d like to use a similar strategy to target your competitors’ followers, you could use these tools to scrape engagement data on posts related to your competitors and then reach out to those users. Example: Connect your linkedin account with them, send the data to clay, enrich, then send to smartlead or lagrowthmachine :) Let me know if you’d like help setting this up! 😊
