Database in Riftjaw with active contacts, segment, lead file and source

Selling website design, builds and redesigns to printing companies

Printing companies run from small digital print shops to large commercial and packaging printers. Owners and production managers buy machinery, paper, inks and software, usually after comparing running costs and reliability.

Web design studios usually win projects through referrals and by approaching businesses whose website looks dated or does not work well on a phone. Your own lead database keeps those prospects in one list, with a note on what you would improve for each of them.

The printing companies that need website design, builds and redesigns are listed publicly. What most web design studios lack is a list they own, with the right fields, that shows who was already contacted.

What web design studios run into with printing companies

You collect prospect websites while browsing but lose them in bookmarks and notes.

Import the websites or paste a directory page into the scrape tool and keep everything in one lead file.

Each prospect needs a personal touch, which makes outreach slow.

Use placeholders for the company name and your own fields, so every email reads personal without writing it from scratch.

Print shops and large commercial printers are listed side by side.

A print type field and saved filters separate them before any campaign goes out.

Sales@ addresses at printers reach account managers busy with quotes.

Tick info@ and your own prefixes too, and log which one got a response.

Fields worth recording for printing companies

Add these as fields in your lead file. Any column in your import can become a field.

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.
Print type	Digital, litho, large format or packaging printers buy different kit.
Presses	The equipment on the floor tells you what they may replace.
Trade or retail	Trade printers serve resellers, retail printers serve end customers.
Staff	Shows size and budget.
Production manager	Often the person who evaluates new equipment and consumables.

Questions people ask

How can a paper merchant find printers by type?

Import a list of printers, add a field for print type and fill it from their websites. Save a filter per type and send each one a relevant campaign.

Can I note when a printer plans to replace a press?

Yes. Add a date field or a note on the contact, then filter on that date when the time comes.

How do I get email addresses for printing companies in your area?

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

Is it free to start?

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.
