To identify social profiles like LinkedIn using a private @gmail address, best practices include: ** Combine the email with the person's full name for enrichment. ** If available, extract and use the company name from the email domain to improve match rates. * Test on a small sample first to gauge accuracy before scaling up. Success rates can vary. For LinkedIn, match rates using name and email inputs are typically around 50%, but using Clay's enrichment tools can nearly double this rate in some cases. Overall, expect coverage between 43% and 53% for valid matches, depending on data quality and provider used .
