Is there a good recipe to find local businesses in an industry > find owners > find owner emails? I'm seeing a few examples using claygent for scraping sites for owners and then prospeo for email. Any other suggestions?
I created a video on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PSKMTU9rKY
Thank you Muhammad for the great example! Hello Lloyd, I think the best way to this exclusively within Clay is to use the Google Maps source to find the businesses and their domains: https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1225296300/3ffdf64fb45f78852a090f353c41/CleanShot+2024-10-22+at+17_14_09.gif?expires=1729633500&signature=01ba9c940a95512b0511c66b3b53d28bbb2a96e2697a09e31facc1159b5166d3&req=dSIlE8t3m4JfWfMW1HO4zfPCLlxo9Jqgg85x1HvyOq1IiCWXuMGLHyxgs6Qk%0AtLkB%0A Then use Claygent to scrape the internet and their domains to find the owners, as you mentioned previously. You can also try to use the 'Find People' option with the domains as input, like this: https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1225298081/04f55f9d04720f268dd942587c3c/CleanShot+2024-10-22+at+17_16_20.gif?expires=1729633500&signature=f34048e7bb162f5493aefbde53553420739e1007917fd1594a1043b516defad0&req=dSIlE8t3lYFXWPMW1HO4zRyYXt09J2QwnBpAv6gIZejpnNXdp%2FpaUriQ5DTJ%0AoX9a%0A
We do Lead sources with Clay if you are interested
Best way to do it is either using the Google Maps integration in Clay (but that doesn't always work), or by scraping Google Maps externally using an Apify scraper, importing that data into clay, and then enriching it. Clays native Google Maps integration sucks, so I'd recommend taking the latter route.
Yeah I've got the maps portion down using apify. It's the enrichment to get owner name and contact info that I'm trying to wrap my head around. Some great suggestions at far. Thanks everyone.
Hey Lloyd, you can use this pre-built recipe in Clay to Find and Verify Decision makers + Contact info! Just search this in the enrichment panel search bar as shown below. https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1226553917/412fa999bab40140ddf626ad47e7/CleanShot+2024-10-23+at+13_41_16%402x.png?expires=1729707300&signature=aab25d163a993380b7e466837bd204334b0f98122c69aaa0e62fbdbc72fc25c6&req=dSIlEMx7noheXvMW1HO4zZHRaTYKCcfU0h9JIxNSQfKsmAM1SifSLquF3S%2Fr%0AVx7C%0A This is a one-step process for finding owner name and contact info that makes it easier for you! Give this a try and let us know what you think :)
Very interested in your feedback Adnan and Lloyd about the Google Maps Apify scraper compared to Clay's Google Maps integration. Could you share more information about why you prefer Apify and the painpoints you currently experience with the Clay integration. We're always looking to get better, and I'd love to share your feedback with our team so we can build this for you in Clay!
We haven't heard back from you in a bit, so we're going to go ahead and close things out here - feel free to let us know if you still need something!
