Contacts list in Riftjaw with company, phone, email, segment, campaigns and tags

Working Oakland one industry at a time

Oakland is in California, the US. Pick the industries you sell to below and each page shows where to find those businesses, what to record and how to reach them.

Keep one lead file per industry or one file with a City field. Either way, a segment for Oakland tells you at a glance who you already contacted and who is still new.

Rules for emailing businesses in the US

In the US, commercial email is covered by the CAN-SPAM Act, which does not require prior consent but does require honest sender details and subject lines, a valid physical postal address and a clear way to opt out. Opt-out requests must be honoured within ten business days, and some states add their own privacy rules. This is general information, not legal advice.

Questions people ask

No. Riftjaw is not a data vendor. You collect the businesses yourself from public sources or your own files and import them. That is why the list is yours and why there is no credit meter on it.

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

Yes. Put Oakland in its own segment, or keep a City field and save a filter such as city contains Oakland. You always see which part of the market you already worked.
