Multi-Channel Scraping

Combine and cross-reference lead data across Google Maps, social media networks, and online directories into a single unified prospect profile.

Multi-Channel Scraping & Data Merging

Single-channel scraping frequently leaves gaps in your prospect data. A business on Google Maps might have a physical phone number but no direct decision-maker email, while their Facebook or LinkedIn page has active contacts but lacks a verified street address.

Multi-Channel Scraping in DataMint enables you to extract, link, and deduplicate records across multiple platforms, creating complete 360° lead profiles ready for cold outbound campaigns.

  1. Primary Pass (Maps or Directory): Start by scraping a geographical territory on Google Maps or a directory to establish the master company record (Name, Phone, Address, Website).
  2. Secondary Pass (Social Network Scrape): Use the Social Media Scraper on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn for the same company or niche to locate active profile handles and owner identities.
  3. Automated Matching Engine: DataMint correlates records using Primary Domain and Normalized Phone Numbers as anchor keys.
  4. Data Merge: Duplicate rows are collapsed, and missing fields from Channel B are merged into Channel A without overwriting existing verified data.

Data Merging Rules & Priority Hierarchy

When two channels provide conflicting information, DataMint adheres to the following verification hierarchy:
