Issue with Low Contact Returns from 30k UK Companies List

Hello.. Quick question: In a workbook I've got a table with 30k UK based companies that fit our ICP. I have a Find People table that is set to add sales and marketing related contacts from the list of 30k companies. But I am only getting around 1.7k contacts in total which I find quite hard to believe! Especially as we have up to 5 contacts per company and so the number of companies that have returned a result is a fraction. I'm on Pro package and so should get up to 50k results. Any ideas on what might be going on? thanks

The discrepancy you're seeing is likely due to how search limits work in Clay. While the Pro plan allows up to 50,000 profiles per search, there are additional factors at play: 1. Per-company limit: You can set a limit on the number of results per company (up to 100). This could be restricting your total results. 2. Search filter restrictions: Limits applied to your search filter, such as job titles or roles, may be reducing the number of matching profiles. 3. Data availability: Not all companies in your list may have available contacts in our database that match your criteria. To increase your results, try adjusting your search parameters, particularly the per-company limit. If you need more assistance, you can request to talk to a person for further troubleshooting.
