Demand capture is the practice of converting people who are already in the market for what you sell. They are searching, comparing, and ready to buy. Your job is simply to be visible and credible when they arrive. It is a legitimate and necessary part of any commercial marketing operation, but it is not the…
Know, like, trust is a framework for understanding how buyers move from stranger to customer. Before someone spends money with you, they need to know you exist, form a positive impression of you, and believe you will deliver on what you promise. Each stage is a prerequisite for the next, and skipping any of them…
Athletes advertising works when the athlete is chosen for strategic fit, not cultural heat. The brands that consistently get a return from athlete partnerships treat them as a media and positioning decision, not a PR event. The ones that get burned tend to confuse fame with relevance. This article covers how to think about athlete…
Clay’s enrich feature lets you pull verified data points on prospects, companies, and contacts at scale, and the free trial is where most of that value becomes real for the first time.
