Selling card terminals, online payments and merchant services to plumbers
Most plumbing firms are owner-run with a few engineers and a van each, so the person you want is often the one under a sink when you call. The owner decides on almost everything, from software to suppliers, and tends to buy when something saves time on quoting, invoicing or finding the next job.
Payment providers and their resellers reach merchants through field sales, partners and direct outreach to shops and hospitality businesses. A lead database of merchants lets you track who you visited, who replied and who signed up.
The plumbers that need card terminals, online payments and merchant services are listed publicly. What most payment providers lack is a list they own, with the right fields, that shows who was already contacted.
What payment providers run into with plumbers
Field sales and email outreach use different lists.
Keep every merchant in one database with statuses that both field and office staff can see.
Merchant lists from directories are full of duplicates.
The import flags duplicates within the file and against your database before anything is published.
Plumber listings are spread over directories, maps and review sites, and each one exports in a different shape.
Import every CSV or Excel file into one lead file, map the columns once and let Riftjaw flag duplicates before anything is added.
Many small plumbing firms only list a phone number and a website, with no email address.
Email from domain builds likely addresses such as info@ and office@ from the website, marked as guesses so you know what is unverified.
A week of prospecting in Riftjaw
Monday: collect
Export a batch of plumbers from public listings and import it. Duplicates are skipped.
Tuesday: fill in
Derive missing emails with info@, office@, enquiries@ and hello@ and tag the records that look like a fit.
Wednesday: reach
Send one mail about your card terminals, online payments and merchant services to the new segment, in small batches.
Friday: follow up
Opens and clicks show up on each record. Set the ones who answered to Replied or Customer, so the follow-ups of the campaign skip them.
Angles that work with plumbers
Use one angle per campaign, so the results show which one gets plumbers to click.
- Lead with fewer missed calls and more booked jobs, because every unanswered call is a job going to the next plumber on the list.
- Show how your offer cuts evening admin like quotes and invoices, which most owners still do after a full day on site.
- Mention seasonal pressure such as frozen pipes and boiler breakdowns in winter, when being easy to find online matters most.
Fields worth recording for plumbers
Add these as fields in your lead file. Any column in your import can become a field.
| Field | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Company name | The key field. Duplicates are checked on it or on the website. |
| Website | Needed to derive an email when the export has none. |
| Service area | Where they work, so you can split the list by town or region. |
| Emergency callouts | Firms that offer out of hours work often care about call handling and dispatch tools. |
| Gas work | Whether they also do boilers and heating changes what they buy and who they buy it from. |
| Team size | A sole trader and a firm with ten engineers need a different pitch. |
| Website quality | A weak or missing site is a clear opening for web and search agencies. |
Questions people ask
Collect listings from public directories or a scraper export, then import the file into Riftjaw and map the columns. Add a Service area field so you can save a filter for each town and send to it separately.
Yes. Add a field or a tag such as gas work and fill it during import or by hand. A saved filter on that field gives you a separate list for heating related offers.
If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as info@, office@, enquiries@ and hello@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.
Yes. The Free plan runs the whole pipeline on one list with small campaigns, and you do not need a credit card. Move to Pro when you want more lists, segments and bigger campaigns.
