このガイドを信頼する理由
I’ve used Clay for eight months and tested every feature covered here.
このチュートリアルは、マーケティング用の誇張表現やベンダーのスクリーンショットではなく、実際の現場経験に基づいています。
Clay is one of the most powerful lead generation tools available today.
しかし、ほとんどのユーザーは、その機能のごく一部しか活用していない。
This guide shows you how to use Clay feature by feature.
スクリーンショットとプロのアドバイスを交えながら、手順を一つずつ解説します。
A quick note before we start: at first glance Clay looks like a plain spreadsheet.
It behaves much more like a research engine bolted onto one.

Here is my honest take after eight months of daily use:
それでは、各ステップを順を追って見ていきましょう。
ステップ1：アカウントを作成する
Go to the Clay website and click Sign Up.
会社のメールアドレスを入力し、パスワードを作成してください。
✓ チェックポイント: チェックしてください 受信トレイ 確認メールについて。

Name it after your company, then invite your sales team.
✓ チェックポイント: The clay logo sits top-left above your empty table list.
Step 3: Connect Your Data Sources
Open Settings and connect the other tools you already run.
You can connect over 100 apps to sync data with Clay, including セールスフォース, HubSpot, and Google Sheets.
Clay connects with ザピエール for additional app integrations, and syncing runs in real time.
✅ 完了: これで、以下のすべての機能をご利用いただけます。

Step 3: Sort and Route

How to Use Clay Claygent
Claygent lets you send an AI powered agent to run account research on any company.

Step 1: Add a Claygent Column
Click Add Column, then choose Claygent from the AI menu.

Step 3: Run and Review
Run it on ten rows first, read the answers, then fine tune the prompt.
✅ 結果: You automate research that used to eat a full afternoon.
💡 プロのヒント: Ask for a one-word answer when you plan to filter on it. Long prose is hard to sort.
How to Use Clay Email Finder
メールファインダー lets you find verified work emails using a waterfall across many data sources.
使い方をステップごとに説明します。
Step 1: Add the Find Email Column
Choose Find Work Email and map the name and domain columns.

How to Setup Clay Signal
Signal Setup lets you track job changes, new hires, and funding so you catch new leads 早い.

Clay Pro Tips and Shortcuts
After eight months in the clay app, here are the tips I actually use.
They save time and keep your systems clean as the 仕事 成長する。
キーボードショートカット
| アクション | ショートカット |
|---|---|
| Add a new column | Cmd + Shift + K |
| Search all the data in a table | Cmd + F |
| Run the selected row | Cmd + Enter |
| Save and close the editor | ESC |
ほとんどの人が見逃す隠れた機能
- Bulk auto-enrich: Clay auto-enriches new rows in bulk or one by one, so you never re-run a whole table by hand.
- Recurring CRM audits: Point Clay at your CRM records monthly to catch stale titles and merge duplicate records.
- Conditional runs: Add a condition so paid enrichment only fires when cheaper data sources come back empty.
Clay Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake #1: Running Enrichment on Your Whole List First
❌ 間違い: Importing 10,000 rows and enriching all of them before you check quality.
✅ 右: Test on 50 rows, read the output, then run the rest. This one habit will save your credits.
Mistake #2: Sending Generic AI Copy
❌ 間違い: Letting Clay write the whole email and blasting it to new leads unread.
✅ 右: Use Clay for the research line only. Personalized messages still need a human touch to lift reply rates.
Mistake #3: Treating Clay Like Google Sheets
❌ 間違い: Building one giant table for every campaign and every account.
✅ 右: Break work into small tables by use case. Smaller tables run faster and are easier to manage.
Clay Troubleshooting
Problem: Enrichment Columns Return Blank
原因： The input column is messy, so Clay cannot match a company to a domain.
修理： Clean the website column first, strip the https prefix, then re-run those rows only.
Problem: Credits Drain Faster Than Expected
原因： Every provider in a waterfall bills separately, even on a failed lookup.
修理： Trim the waterfall to three providers and add a condition so it stops at the first match.
Problem: Rows Stay Stuck on Queued
原因： A large bulk run is competing with your scheduled workflow オートメーション.
修理： Pause the schedule, let the bulk job finish, then restart it. Speed returns right away.
📌 注記： If none of these fix your issue, contact Clay support.
