I'm curious if anyone knows how to find headcount growth of a SPECIFIC department? I'm looking for companies who recently grew their marketing/sales department

    Hey Harvey, great question! Right now, there’s no built-in way to query historical department-specific headcount growth directly in Clay, but the team is working on enhancing that functionality. In the meantime, you could explore some external APIs that offer employee or department growth insights. Let me know if you need more info or help getting started! 😊

    When you enrich a company by Apollo then you can see headcount growth in sales, engineering, support or other department

    interesting -- is it a native apollo thing or a clay api? And can it be trusted in your experience?

    You have to buy their subscription and then You can use Apollo's api key in Clay. I tried harmonic.io but it's too expensive, you can trust Apollo

    Nice -- have you ran a campaign like this in the past? what's the accuracy level?

    It's not 100% but you can say 90%. Another best thing about Apollo is it gives the estimated number of employees that are working in a company. For example, we are getting leads from clay with the filter 200 to 500 but when we check their LinkedIn profile, it shows the same 200+ but when we click on the employees, then we see that it's showing us only 30 so Apollo give you the employees count 30.
