How to find companies in a specific industry

"Companies in healthcare" is too broad to sell to. This template narrows an industry into a list you can actually contact.

Find companies by industry

Name the industry the way companies describe themselves ("dental clinics", not "healthcare"), add a location and a size range, then check each company's own website for what it does. Yolias does this from one sentence and shows which criteria each company met.

Who this is for

  • Agencies and consultants who specialise in one industry
  • Sales teams entering a new vertical

What to look for

  • The industry in the words companies use on their own sites
  • Sub-segments to include and exclude
  • Location and size
  • One sign that they need what you sell

How to do it with Yolias

  1. 01

    Name the niche

    Write the industry as narrowly as your case studies are: "specialty coffee roasters" rather than "food".

  2. 02

    Add limits

    City or country, employee range, and anything to exclude (chains, franchises, government).

  3. 03

    Add one need signal

    What tells you they need you now: new branches, no online ordering, hiring for a role you replace.

  4. 04

    Check the first ten

    Open the first results yourself. If they're wrong, change the wording, not the whole search.

Questions

Where can I get a list of companies by industry?

Business directories, chambers of commerce, company registers and the companies' own websites. Directories usually forbid copying their lists; registers and company sites are better starting points. Yolias searches the data sources connected to it and public company information.

How specific should the industry be?

As specific as your best case study. If you can't name a past client in that niche, the niche is probably too broad.
