[PLACEHOLDER: opening — why enrichment stacks look simple in a demo and fall apart in production.]
The pipeline, end to end
[PLACEHOLDER] Walk through: trigger (new lead/list upload) → Clay enrichment waterfall → deduplication against existing HubSpot records → field mapping → sync back into HubSpot without overwriting sales-owned fields.
The failure most teams hit first
[PLACEHOLDER] Enrichment providers silently return partial data, and syncing that into HubSpot overwrites good data with blanks. Describe the safeguard: never overwrite a populated field with an empty enrichment result.
Keeping cost under control
[PLACEHOLDER] Waterfall enrichment (cheapest source first, fall through only on miss) and de-duplication before enrichment, not after, to avoid paying twice for the same contact.
