Team works in separate lists when you sell to roofers
Does your colleague know you already called that company? Here is how people who sell to roofers fix it.
Does your colleague know you already called that company?
Each person on the team keeps a private list or sheet. Nobody sees the full picture of who was contacted and what they said.
It hits harder when you sell to roofers. Roofing firms are usually small family businesses with a crew or two, run by an owner who still quotes jobs in person. Work depends heavily on the weather, so they think about cash flow and about filling the diary in advance.
Two people approach the same company and prospects notice. Knowledge walks out the door when someone leaves.
One shared database, unlimited users.
Riftjaw gives the team one shared lead database with unlimited users on an account. Everyone sees the same statuses, notes and mail history. The activities feed shows what happened recently.
- Fields that fit roofers, such as roof types
- Email prefixes that fit, like info@, office@ and enquiries@
- Status, tags and a segment on every record
The fix, step by step
- Bring the lists together. Import each team member's list into the shared database.
- Invite the team. Add colleagues to the account at no extra cost per user.
- Work from one status. Update statuses and notes so everyone sees the latest step.
Other walls when prospecting roofers
Many roofers use a free email address or none at all.
An existing email column always wins in Riftjaw; where only a website is known, email from domain suggests role addresses as clearly marked guesses.
Scraped roofer lists mix roofers with builders and general handymen.
Use tags and a field for roof types to clean the list, and archive records that are not a real fit so campaigns skip them.
Replies come in weeks later when the weather turns, and nobody remembers the context.
The contact history shows the mail they received and any notes, so you can pick the conversation up where it stopped.
Fields worth recording for roofers
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. |
| Roof types | Flat, pitched, slate or metal work each pull in different suppliers. |
| Guarantee offered | Firms that offer written guarantees often work with specific material brands. |
| Service area | Roofers travel less far than you think, so region matters for any local offer. |
| Uses scaffolding | Tells you whether they hire scaffolding or own it. |
Questions people ask
Often yes, because a flat roof specialist and a slate roofer buy different materials. Add a Roof types field in your lead file and save a filter for each group.
Then email from domain has nothing to work from. Keep the record with its phone number, set the status to New and mark it with a tag so you can call instead.
If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as info@, office@ and enquiries@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.
