Selling products and services to other businesses to garden centres

Garden centres range from family nurseries to large destination stores with cafes, gift halls and pet departments. Buyers and owners choose suppliers per department, and buying follows the season closely.

Sales teams often work from rented contact data, personal spreadsheets and a CRM that nobody fills in properly. A shared lead database gives everyone the same list, the same statuses and one place to see what happened with each company.

The garden centres that need products and services to other businesses are listed publicly. What most sales teams lack is a list they own, with the right fields, that shows who was already contacted.

What sales teams run into with garden centres

Each rep keeps a private list, so two people call the same company.

Work in one shared database with unlimited users on an account and see the status of every company before you reach out.

Per seat and per credit pricing makes it expensive to add people.

Riftjaw charges no credits and no per record fees, and every user on the account is included.

Buyers plan months ahead, so a mail at the wrong time is wasted.

Prepare the campaign early and resume it when buying season starts.

Small nurseries and large destination centres are listed together.

Record size and departments in fields and save filters on them.

Questions people ask

Usually in the months before the main season, when ranges are planned. You can prepare a campaign in Riftjaw and start sending in small batches at the right time.

Yes. Use tags per department and add notes to the contact, so the whole team sees what was discussed.

If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as info@, enquiries@, buying@ and hello@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.
