Improving Company Searches with Effective Filter Strategies

Hey - I am doing a company search with specific filters to see if Clay finds all companies that i am looking for. It is not finding key players in the city i am looking in. the specific filters i'm using are industries, description keywords, countries, and city. do you have any recommendations on how to improve the match?

To improve your company search results in Clay, try these strategies: 1. Review and adjust your filters carefully. Make sure your industry selections, keywords, and location filters are precise and relevant to your target companies. 2. Use the "Preview companies" feature before importing to check if the results match your expectations. If not, iterate on your search parameters. 3. For smaller companies or those without a strong LinkedIn presence, consider using the Google Maps integration. This can be particularly helpful for finding SMBs in specific cities. 4. Experiment with different combinations of filters and keywords. Sometimes, broadening certain criteria while narrowing others can yield better results. If you're still not finding key players, you may need to refine your search strategy further. If you need additional assistance, please request to talk to a person in this chat for more personalized help.

Hey, if you already know some of the companies you’re targeting, try manually adding their names or domains—that can help bypass search limitations. I tested a similar search using the keyword “Amazon” and did see matches come through. Let me know if you’re still not seeing the results—you might just need a small tweak to the query.
