The Waterfall People Search enrichment finds leads from a company domain and lets you filter by job title, seniority, and keywords.

It is designed for lead generation teams who want to go from an account list to matching contacts without leaving their spreadsheet workflow.

What makes this a good lead search workflow?

This enrichment supports structured people search with:

  • Company domain input
  • Country filter
  • Up to 3 returned contacts per company
  • Waterfall search logic with fallback criteria
  • Preview mode without email
  • Full profile mode with work email
  • Cache-age control to reuse prior results

That makes it useful for account-based prospecting when you want more precision than a broad people database search.

Step-by-step guide

Step 1: Import your account list

Upload your CSV or Excel file into Datablist.

Step 2: Select "Waterfall People Search"

Open Enrich and choose the search enrichment.

Step 3: Map the company domain and define filters

Set the company domain input, then define one or more search blocks with job titles, departments, seniority, and other filters.

Datablist tries Search #1 first. If it finds no result, it can fall back to Search #2 and Search #3. This is useful when you want a tight query first, then a broader one.

What the enrichment returns

Depending on the selected result type, it can return:

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Full name
  • LinkedIn URL
  • Profile summary
  • Job title
  • Job start date
  • Seniority
  • City, region, country
  • Company LinkedIn page
  • Work email in full-profile mode

This lets you decide whether you want a lower-cost preview pass or a full lead with email.

Good fits

  • Find leads inside target accounts
  • Build prospect lists from website or domain datasets
  • Add preview contact data before deciding on full enrichment
  • Search for several job-title variants without rebuilding the workflow

Pricing and example

  • 30 credits for preview data
  • 100 credits for full data with email
  • No charge if no result is found

Example:

  • 1,000 preview matches cost 30,000 credits
  • 1,000 full matches with email cost 100,000 credits

This model is useful when you want to preview fit first, then pay for email coverage on the rows worth keeping.

Best Inputs for People Search

Waterfall People Search starts from company domains and search filters. It is built for account-based prospecting when you know the companies but still need contacts.

Prepare columns such as:

  • Company domain
  • Target job title keywords
  • Seniority filters
  • Department or role criteria
  • Country or region when relevant

Run a preview first to check whether your filters are too broad or too narrow.

FAQ

Can I find leads from company domains in a CSV file?

Yes. Import your account list, map the company domain column, define your role filters, and run Waterfall People Search in bulk.

What is the difference between People Search and People Enrichment?

People Search finds new contacts at a company. People Enrichment completes records for contacts you already have.

What filters should I use?

Use job title, seniority, department, and keyword filters that match your buyer or candidate profile. Start narrow, preview results, then widen the search if needed.

What should I do after finding contacts?

Review the returned profiles, run email or phone enrichment when needed, deduplicate the list, and export the best contacts for outreach.
