Distributor search: a business development arm on the ground

The part of the work a foreign brand cannot do from home: writing to distributors and integrators in their language, taking the replies, screening out the noise, and putting your representative in front of the ones who mean it.

For whom

For brands that have run the market check, or already sell in the region and want more partners, better ones, or a second country.

What the work includes

  • Active outreach to distributors, dealers and integrators, built from sector directories, exhibitor lists and the replies to the first campaign
  • Inquiry handling: a manager who answers, qualifies and passes on only real interest
  • A warm-contact pipeline with reporting: who was contacted, who replied, what they asked, what came next
  • Translation for correspondence and live negotiations, for as long as you need
  • Content that keeps running: the site, the channels, the material a distributor checks before a call
  • New geographies and channels once the first country answers

How it works

Distributors and integrators for your category, by country, from sector directories, exhibitor lists and our own contacts from the first month. Each entry with the person who decides.

One question, no deck, in Russian. The deck goes to whoever replies. Single-digit reply rates are normal for cold B2B mail now; the ones who reply have already seen you in the feed and in search.

Our manager takes the conversation to the point where the questions are about terms, volumes and certificates. Everything else is filtered before it reaches you.

Your representative joins for negotiation. We stay on as translator and intermediary; the pipeline report shows where every contact stands.

What you keep

  • The distributor register for your category with replies and notes
  • The correspondence, in both languages
  • The pipeline report, updated monthly
  • Working channels and a site that keeps bringing inquiries

Price

From $10,000 a month, from month two

Depends on scope, number of platforms, geography, ad budgets and goals. No fixed end date: the work runs as long as it is bringing partners.

Questions

No. We do not promise signed contracts in the first month or lists of contacts we do not have. What we promise is the work: the outreach, the screening, the meetings, the report.

No. We do not stock, import or resell. We connect you with the distributors and representatives who will.

LinkedIn's reach in the region is small and skews to an English-speaking executive slice. Distributors and their buyers sit on Instagram, TikTok and Telegram, VK for Russia, and answer email in Russian. We go where they are.

Thinking about the region?

The Pilot month answers the question from inside the country: demand check, distributor map, first outreach, a written go or no-go read.
