Record sector and processes in fields and send each campaign to a narrow segment.

The right buyer sits behind a generic address.

Add purchasing@ as your own prefix in email from domain alongside info@.

Deals take months with many touchpoints.

Contact history, notes and statuses keep the whole story in one place.

Emailing manufacturers in the UK

In the UK, B2B cold email is covered by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR. PECR generally allows marketing email to corporate subscribers such as limited companies without prior consent, but sole traders and some partnerships are treated like individuals and usually need consent, and every message must identify you and offer a simple way to opt out. Under UK GDPR you also need a lawful basis, often legitimate interests, to use the details of named contacts. This is general information, not legal advice.

Midweek mornings are usually best; avoid factory shutdown weeks and the end of the financial year when budgets are frozen or spent. Read the deliverability guide before your first send.

Questions people ask

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

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.

Add a sector field and fill it on import or from research. Then save a filter per sector and use it as the campaign audience.

Yes. Besides the standard prefixes you can add your own in email from domain. The results are likely addresses, not verified ones.
