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

What happens to your leads the day you cancel?

Some tools rent you access to contacts or make it hard to take your work with you. Your notes, statuses and lists stay behind when the subscription ends.

It hits harder when you sell to bakeries. Bakeries start work before dawn and the owner is often also the head baker. They buy flour, ingredients, packaging and ovens with care, and value suppliers who deliver on time and understand production.

Every month you invest more work into a list you do not really own. Switching tools later means starting over.

Your data, exportable at any moment.

In Riftjaw you build your own lead database on your account's own server. You can export contacts to CSV at any time, all at once or per segment. Form entries and original import files come back out too, including on the day you leave.

Fields that fit bakeries, such as wholesale
Email prefixes that fit, like info@, hello@, orders@ and shop@

Other walls when prospecting bakeries

Bakers are at work before sunrise and check email late in the day.

Batches of ten go out steadily, and history shows you who opened so you follow up at a sensible hour.

Retail bakeries and wholesale bakeries are mixed in one list.

A field for wholesale plus a saved filter keeps the two groups apart.

You forget which bakery already received samples.

Tag contacts with samples sent and add the date in a note.

Fields worth recording for bakeries

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

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.
Wholesale	Bakeries that supply cafes and shops buy in larger volumes.
Shops	The number of outlets shows the scale of production.
Speciality	Sourdough, patisserie or gluten free each need different ingredients.
Oven type	Useful when you sell equipment or servicing.
Owner baker	Whether the owner bakes tells you when they are reachable.

Questions people ask

How do I find bakeries that also supply wholesale?

Scraped listings rarely say this, so add a field for wholesale and fill it as you research. Then save a filter for wholesale bakeries only.

Can I track who received samples?

Yes. Add a tag such as samples sent and a note with the date on the contact, then filter on that tag for your follow-up.

How do I get email addresses for bakeries 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@, hello@, orders@ and shop@, 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.
