Finding Contacts for Accounts Without Relevant Contacts in ZoomInfo: Alternative Methods

·

I have a list of accounts that have 0 relevant contacts in ZoomInfo. Besides LinkedIn, are there any other ways Clay can help find contacts for these accounts? These are logistics contacts, so I'm thinking the only other meaningful source is going to be Google or Facebook, but I'm not seeing those as options to find contacts.

can you give an example of a good contact and the source of where you might find them online?

Hey Zachary, thanks for the inquiry! I'd start with what Willy is saying here, if you were to do it manually what does the process look like? From there we could then find ways to automate it.

I'll think about it some more. I was playing around with Claygent, but the results coming back were very poor, which is probably more of a reflection on the fact that there is just not much of an internet footprint for this list of accounts.

Yeah the claygent/prospecting process might require a bit of critical thought... the best way that I simplified it for myself how do I go about prospecting for prime ICPs and then can I instruct Claygent to mimic my actions. If yes, then you test and gradually iterate. Now I have a process that's not perfect, but definitely helpful and valuable. What I would spend weeks/months doing (research) takes minutes now. Since you're looking for Logistic contacts, I would try to think of where these peeps might be listed... Maybe an OSHA list? Maybe forklift license DB (I'm shooting from the hip, but I hope you get the idea)... if theres a list clay can get it, then you spend credits to enrich it.
