How to identify implementation partners
Describe your target market or platform
Add your target market or platform and the title you want to reach. Sculptor scans Clay's company database for matching implementation partners.
Sculptor sources partners and finds contact emails
Sculptor assembles a list of implementation partners filtered by industry, tech stack, and platform fit, then waterfalls through 150+ providers to find a verified email for the target title you specified. Matched rows get the contact.
Review your partner list and verified contacts
The finished table has company name and a verified contact email for matched rows. Push to Smartlead, Instantly, or your sequencer to trigger outreach the moment a row lands.
Why Clay for identifying implementation partners
Filter partners by platform, tech stack, and industry
Pinpoint implementation partner firms using Clay's B2B company database with concrete filters: industry, headcount, tech stack, funding stage, and location. Claygent browses partner directories and certification pages to surface firms that standard filters miss.
Waterfall enrichment for verified partner contacts
Get a verified email for the target title on matched partner rows. Clay waterfalls through 150+ providers and only charges credits when one returns a hit, so your list stays clean without paying for gaps.
AI scoring to tier partner fit by signal
Score every matched firm on fit signals: platform adoption depth, hiring activity, and headcount range using Clay's formula columns. Tier partners from highest to lowest fit so outreach focuses on the most promising rows first.
Sync partner lists to Salesforce or Outreach
Push scored, enriched partner rows directly to Salesforce or Outreach in minutes. Sequences trigger automatically so your partnership team reaches out the moment a qualified row is ready.
Our most successful campaigns are built on data that doesn’t exist in off-the-shelf tools. Clay helps us find those signals — and transform ambitious ideas into executable, high-performing campaigns.
Frequently asked questions
How does Sculptor identify implementation partners?
Sculptor uses Clay's Find Companies source with technographic filters to surface agencies that actually run HubSpot or Salesforce, then narrows results by region or vertical you specify. Once the company list is built, waterfall enrichment checks 10+ contact-data providers sequentially to find a verified founder email for each agency. You type your target region or vertical, click Generate, and Sculptor returns agency name and founder email per row.
How accurate are the partner emails Sculptor returns?
Clay's 2025 work email benchmark found that a three-provider waterfall typically reaches 90 to 95% coverage, compared to 52 to 90% from any single provider. Every email Sculptor returns passes through ZeroBounce validation by default, so you send only to addresses flagged as deliverable. Credits are refunded automatically when a provider finds nothing, so you pay only for verified results.
Can I find implementation partners in bulk at once?
Yes. Paste a list of target regions or verticals, upload a CSV, or pipe rows from an existing Clay table, and Sculptor runs the same technographic search and email waterfall across every row in parallel. Once complete, push the finished partner list directly to HubSpot or Salesforce with a single action, or export to CSV for your own partner tracking workflow.
Is it legal to collect company data for partner outreach?
In the U.S., CAN-SPAM permits cold B2B email as long as messages include a valid physical address, honest sender info, and a working unsubscribe link. In the EU, GDPR allows processing business contact data under the legitimate interest basis (Article 6(1)(f)), provided the outreach is relevant to the recipient's professional role and you honor opt-out requests promptly.
Rules vary by country and region, so always check the regulations that apply in your jurisdiction before launching partner outreach.
