THE WATERFALL

Cheapest source first. The rest only on misses.

A waterfall asks one provider at a time and stops at the first answer. The order decides the bill, so the provider that costs us nothing goes first. This is one real run from our workspace.

WHAT A CLAY CONSULTANT DOES

Three inputs, one table, three places it feeds.

A Clay consultant decides which columns run, on which rows, in what order, and where the results go. Switch the table to a typical build to see where the credits go.

  1. Your wishlist

    The accounts your sales team wants, with the fit rules they approve.

  2. Signals

    Hiring, new leaders and funding, so outreach starts when a buyer has a reason. Which ones work

  3. Find people

    The people who sign inside each account. How we build a list

Your Clay tableBuilt by Growth Cab
  1. Fit check and exclusions

    Duplicates, customers and off-target accounts leave first, before any paid column.

    Enrichment runs on every row, duplicates and current customers included.

    0 creditsEvery row paid for
  2. Enrichment waterfall

    Mobiles and work emails, cheapest source first, the next one only on misses.

    Provider order picked on day one and never checked again.

    Cheapest firstOrder never checked
  3. AI research

    Claygent and AI columns answer what no database covers, with the source saved next to every answer.

    An AI column on every row fills the gaps with guesses that look like facts.

    Sources keptBiggest line on the bill
Monthly credit budgetYou approve itNobody approves it
  1. Your CRM

    Clean fields in HubSpot or Salesforce, every table with one named owner.

  2. Your sequencer

    Email and LinkedIn campaigns fed straight from the table, from domains kept apart from yours. Deliverability

  3. Our SDRs

    Every reply and signal called back and qualified, until the call is in your calendar. Outsourced SDRs

The table looks finished and feeds nothing

Our honest answer

Bring in a Clay consultant

You need the tables now and nobody to run them yet. We build them, run them with our outreach and hand them over with written instructions.

  • Credits bill to your own Clay account, every one visible
  • Tables, waterfalls and AI steps live where your team works
  • Written instructions for every table when we hand over
  • Prospeo runs first on our own key, at zero Clay credits
  • A registry of every contact we processed, so no one is enriched twice
  • Finished lists go to your CRM or a shared sheet
INSIDE OUR WORKSPACE

A folder per client, a result in each.

Each client has a folder in our Clay workspace, with a workbook for each list and each new segment. These are clients whose lists live there, and what their programs produced.

What does a Clay consultant do?

A Clay consultant designs, builds and maintains Clay workflows: account lists, enrichment waterfalls, AI research and the connection to your CRM or outreach tools. At Growth Cab every table feeds a live campaign or your CRM, with one named owner, for B2B tech companies selling contracts of $50,000 or more.

Do you build in our Clay workspace or yours?

Either. In yours, credits bill to your Clay account and everything stays where your team works. In ours, Prospeo runs first on our own key at zero Clay credits, and the finished lists go to your CRM or a shared sheet. You keep the tables, the logic and the written instructions either way.

Can you cut our Clay credit spend?

Usually, yes. The biggest saving comes from stopping enrichment on rows nobody was going to work: duplicates, current customers and accounts outside your fit rules. Then comes the waterfall order, with the cheapest source that covers your market first. One of our runs took 302 companies to 96 decision makers with 93 mobiles and 91 verified emails for about 550 Clay credits.

What is a Clay enrichment waterfall?

A column that asks several data providers for the same field, one after another, and stops at the first one that finds it. The order sets the cost. In our work email waterfall Prospeo goes first and found 45 of 96 emails in one run; the other providers only saw the rows it missed.

Clay consultant or learning Clay in-house: what should a 50-person B2B company do?

A company this size rarely keeps a full-time GTM engineer busy. The usual answer: a consultant builds the first workflows and hands them to the person on your team who will run them, with written instructions. If your list is a few hundred accounts, one contact database may be enough.

What should we ask before hiring a Clay consultant?

Five questions. Will you build in our workspace? Can you show a table you built that feeds a live campaign? How do you decide the order of the waterfall? What does one accepted record cost in credits, counting the rows you throw away? What do we keep when the work ends? Our answers: yes, or in ours; the table at the top of this page; cost and coverage for your market; divide the credits by the records you keep; every table, its logic and written instructions.

Do we need Clay at all?

Not always. If your list is small and each deal is large, a waterfall is overhead, and one contact data tool from our GTM Tools page may be enough.

Do you use Claygent and AI columns?

Yes, where a data provider has no answer: what an account sells, who it sells to, who owns the decision. We ran 30,400+ AI research steps in our workspace between June and September 2026. AI steps run after the fit check, keep the source next to every answer and send doubtful rows to a person.

Can you also run the outreach?

Yes. Our SDRs work the accounts your tables surface by phone, email and LinkedIn until a qualified call is in your calendar, and emails go out from sending domains kept apart from your company domain. See outsourced SDR services and our email deliverability consultant page.

Who do you work with?

B2B tech companies past product-market fit, selling contracts of $50,000 or more, in the US and Europe. Growth Cab is a Clay Enterprise Partner, founded in 2022 by Federico Donatone and Lorenzo Asnaghi. More on the About page.
