can I source accounts based on headcount changes
Yes, you can source accounts based on headcount changes using Clay. We offer a "Find Employee Headcount" feature that allows you to identify companies with specific headcount criteria. You can customize this to find companies with positive growth in certain roles over a specific time period. For example, you could identify companies with increased engineering hires over the last six months. This feature combines data from Companies, People, and Jobs sources to provide accurate insights. Additionally, our Scheduling feature can help keep this data up-to-date automatically, ensuring you always have access to the most recent headcount changes.
can i look for negative employee headcount changes
Yes, you can track negative employee headcount changes using Clay. We offer a "Find Company Headcount Growth" action that retrieves headcount growth data over time. This includes the "Employee Count Over Specified Time Period" and "Employee Count % Growth" data points, which can show both positive and negative changes. Additionally, our "Monitor for job changes" feature can help you track individual job changes, which could indicate company downsizing. To get started, you can use these features in your Clay workspace. If you need more detailed guidance, let me know and I can provide step-by-step instructions.
How do I implment it? I do not see it in "Find companies" source option
Our "Find Company Headcount Growth" action can help you track employee count changes over time. While it doesn't explicitly mention negative changes, you can infer this from the data provided. The action returns employee counts and growth percentages for various time periods (1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months ago). Negative growth would indicate a decrease in headcount. To implement this: 1. Use the action with a company profile or domain 2. Compare current employee count with historical data 3. Calculate negative growth where applicable If you need more specific functionality, let us know, and we can explore custom solutions.
I want to use it as a source to find companies not to monitor companies, is that doable
While the "Find Company Headcount Growth" action is primarily designed to retrieve headcount growth data over time, it can indeed be used to identify companies with negative employee headcount changes. The action provides percent employee growth data for various time periods (1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months). Negative values in these fields would indicate a decrease in employee count. You could use this action and then filter the results to focus on companies showing negative growth percentages.
