Selling video production for brands and businesses to builders
General builders take on extensions, renovations and repairs, often managing subcontractors for each trade. The owner usually quotes, orders materials and chases payments, so anything that tightens cash flow or reduces admin gets attention.
Video producers usually get work through their showreel, referrals and repeat clients. A lead database of businesses that could use video lets you reach new clients between projects and remember who showed interest.
Every month you do not reach builders 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 video producers run into with builders
Work arrives in bursts and prospecting is forgotten during busy months.
Statuses and segments show exactly where you stopped, so you can restart outreach quickly.
You want to show your work without sending heavy attachments.
Link to your showreel or a form from a campaign and see who opened and clicked.
Builder lists overlap with every other trade, so it is hard to tell who is a real general builder.
Add a Project types field and tags, then put the records you have checked in their own segment so campaigns only reach the right firms.
You collect builders from several towns in separate files.
Import all of them into one lead file with a Service area field; duplicates across files are flagged before you publish.

Angles that work with builders
Pick one angle per campaign and write it once, with placeholders like {company|your team} for the details.
- Lead with getting paid faster and cleaner paperwork, because late payments hurt small builders most.
- Talk about reliable delivery to site, since a missed delivery can hold up a whole team.
- Offer help winning better jobs, such as a stronger website with past project photos.
Fields worth recording for builders
Any column in your import can become a field. These are the ones worth keeping for builders.
| 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. |
| Project types | Extensions, lofts and full renovations need different suppliers. |
| Uses subcontractors | Tells you whether they need tools to manage other trades. |
| Typical job size | Helps you judge whether your offer fits their budget. |
| Service area | Merchants and hire firms work within a delivery radius. |
| Accreditations | Membership of a trade body hints at size and professionalism. |
Questions people ask
Where planning records are public and list the agent or builder, you can collect them yourself and import them. Riftjaw does not crawl those sites for you, but it handles the file you bring.
Pick a key field such as website or email in your lead file. Riftjaw flags duplicates in the file and against existing records before anything is pushed.
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 admin@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.
