FAQ: Smart Contact Enrichment

What is Smart Contact Enrichment?

Smart Contact Enrichment by HG Insights identifies, enriches, and activates the right contacts in your revenue workflow, for sellers in Sales Copilot and marketers building audiences through HG Fabric data feed. Unlike generic contact databases, every contact is connected to the company, technology, spend, and intent signals powering your GTM motion.

What ROI can we expect from HG’s Smart Contact Enrichment?

Teams using Smart Contact Enrichment reduce time spent on manual contact research and tool-switching. Verified emails and phone numbers sourced through waterfall enrichment reduce bounce rates and wasted outreach. Real-time company validation eliminates contacts who have changed jobs. The result is faster progression from account identification to first contact, with higher data accuracy than static contact databases.

Is Smart Contact Enrichment GDPR and CCPA compliant?

Smart Contact Enrichment is GDPR and CCPA compliant. A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is required before accessing contact data. HG Insights is SOC 2 certified, with procurement-ready documentation available on request. All contact data is sourced and validated through transparent practices with full data lineage from provider through enrichment to activation.

How does Smart Contact Enrichment differ from a standard contact database?

Smart Contact Enrichment is contextual to the account and the specific revenue use case. Contacts are recommended based on account-level technographic installs, IT spend signals, and buyer intent data already surfaced in the Sales Copilot workflow. Sellers receive contacts relevant to the account strategy they are executing, not a generic list of names from a static database.

Which sales tools does Smart Contact Enrichment integrate with?

Contacts enriched through HG Insights can be activated directly into Salesforce, Gong, Outreach, Salesloft, and HubSpot without leaving the Sales Copilot workflow. This removes the manual step of exporting or copying contact data between tools. Sellers move from contact discovery to direct CRM or engagement platform activation inside the same platform where they accessed account intelligence, reducing time to first outreach.

How does waterfall enrichment improve contact data quality?

Waterfall enrichment runs each contact reveal through multiple data providers in sequence. Each provider is queried until the highest-confidence match is found for that individual record. This increases coverage across industries and geographies and reduces the number of contacts with outdated or missing details, compared to single-provider methods that rely on one source for all records.

Does Smart Contact Enrichment work with existing CRM contacts?

Yes. Smart Contact Enrichment surfaces intelligence on contacts already stored in your CRM, including Salesforce. In addition to recommending net-new contacts not yet in your system, it layers additional context and signals onto existing records. This gives sellers a more complete picture of their current contacts without requiring manual research or separate data imports.

Can I get contacts in bulk, not just 1-by-1 in Sales Copilot?

Yes. Smart Contact Enrichment is delivered in two modes. Sellers reveal contacts one at a time inside Sales Copilot. Marketing and RevOps teams build audiences at scale through HG Fabric data feed, filtering by role, seniority, function, tenure, and location alongside HG’s company and signal filters. Verified emails and phones are enriched on demand at the point of delivery ensuring real time accuracy, ready to push into your CRM or campaign tool.

Who uses contact data through the HG Fabric?

Marketing teams use it to build targeted audiences for campaigns. RevOps and data teams use it to enrich CRM contacts at scale and keep them current. Strategy teams use it to layer person-level coverage onto their account intelligence. Sellers continue working inside Sales Copilot for 1-by-1 reveals. The same contact data powers both modes.

How is HG Insights contacts different from other tools in the market?

Other tools give you a list of names. HG Insights gives you the full motion from segment to outreach in one place. Combine company, technology, spend, intent, and contact-level signals to build richer, more targeted audiences, without switching between multiple tools.
