# Lead Enrichment
Enrichment turns a name into a lead you can target and write to. The question isn't how many fields you can append — it's which fields change a decision or a sentence.
A record with 60 columns and no reason to email the person is worse than a record with six columns and a researched observation, because the first one costs more and produces the same generic email.
## Decide what each field is for
Every field should have a job. If it has none, don't pay for it.
| Field | Job |

| Work email | Contact. Without it there's no lead |
| Full name | Personalisation and confirming you have the right person |
| Title | Confirming role fit |
| Company, domain | Identity and deduplication |
| Employee count | Segmentation and message fit |
| Location | Timezone, language, legal basis |
| LinkedIn URL | Multichannel, and verifying the person is real and current |
| **The researched observation** | The first line of the email |

## Two kinds of enrichment
**Standard enrichment** appends known fields from a database — size, industry, location, sometimes an email. Fast, cheap, and decays at roughly 25 to 30% a
