Selling products and services to other businesses to web designers

Web designers are often freelancers or small studios who build and look after sites for local businesses. They buy hosting, tools and outsourced development, and they choose partners who make them look good in front of their clients.

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.

Every month you do not reach web designers with a clear offer, someone else does. A list you own lets you work the market in a steady rhythm instead of in bursts.

What sales teams run into with web designers

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.

Web designers find their own names in footers and get many partnership mails.

A short, specific message sent in small batches stands out more than a long pitch.

Freelancers rarely list an email address and use hello@ on their own domain.

Email from domain with hello@ ticked gives you a likely address to test.

What to say to web designers

Pick one angle per campaign and write it once, with placeholders like {company|your team} for the details.

  • Refer to a site from their portfolio and suggest how your offer helps with the next one.
  • Offer a service they can add to their client proposals at a margin.
  • Keep it technical enough to show you understand how they build.

Questions people ask

You can gather the sites yourself and paste the page HTML into paste and collect, which turns repeating blocks into rows. Riftjaw does not crawl the web on its own.

No. They are likely addresses built from common patterns. Test with a small batch and watch the send log.

If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as hello@, info@, studio@ and design@, 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.
