Stop competing on price on a directory page.
Deligatr builds and runs a fully managed outbound engine for manufacturers, reaching e-commerce brands, retailers, distributors and industrial buyers directly, before they ever compare you to five other factories on a directory.
No hires, no trade show calendar to work around, no more waiting for RFQs to appear. One ICP workshop, then we run the entire buyer outreach for you.

Quick answer
Deligatr generates leads for manufacturers by running a fully managed outbound engine across email and LinkedIn, reaching e-commerce brands, retailers, distributors and industrial buyers directly, before they compare you to competitors on a directory. We define your ideal buyer, build and warm the sending infrastructure, write buyer-specific messaging, handle every reply, and book qualified meetings directly to your calendar. Plans start at $2,500 per month with no long-term contract.
We know this industry
Directories and trade shows were never a growth plan
They generate inbound interest, but they put you in a price race and leave your pipeline empty between events. Here is what we build around for every manufacturing client.
Directory listings force a price race
Alibaba, ThomasNet and Global Sources put your factory next to every competitor in your category, comparing on unit price alone, not capability or reliability.
Trade shows are seasonal and expensive
A booth costs thousands before a single qualified conversation happens, and the pipeline dries up completely between events.
RFQs are reactive by nature
You can only respond to requests that already exist. By the time an RFQ is public, you are one of several factories bidding on price.
Sales reps manage accounts, not hunt new ones
Your team is busy servicing existing clients. New business development happens in bursts, then stops for months.
Distributor relationships age out
A distributor that drove volume for years slows down or switches suppliers, and there is no pipeline of new relationships to replace it.
E-commerce buyers are hard to reach cold
DTC and e-commerce founders move fast and get pitched constantly. Generic manufacturer outreach gets ignored instantly.
Especially built to reach e-commerce & DTC brands
E-commerce brands need a supplier. You need a pipeline. We connect the two.
E-commerce and DTC founders are constantly evaluating suppliers, especially after a funding round, a new product launch, or a public complaint about their current manufacturer. We reach them at exactly that moment.
No generic capability statements. Every message references a specific, current reason that brand might need a new manufacturing partner right now.
Who we target
Five buyer types, five different triggers
| Buyer Type | Relevant Trigger Event | Typical Share of Outreach |
|---|---|---|
| E-commerce & DTC Brands | New product launch, funding round, or supplier complaint on social media | 32% |
| Retail Chains & Big-Box Buyers | New category planning cycle, seasonal buying window | 24% |
| Distributors & Wholesalers | Expansion into new territory, supplier diversification | 20% |
| Industrial & OEM Buyers | New product development, supplier qualification cycle | 15% |
| Import / Export & Sourcing Agents | Client mandate for new supplier options | 9% |
A trigger event is a real, timely reason to reach out, a funding round or a supplier complaint, rather than a cold, generic message. Illustrative distribution, adjusted per firm during the ICP workshop.
What you get
A complete outbound engine, run for you
You do one workshop. We build, run and optimise everything else.
ICP Workshop
One session to define your ideal buyer by product category, order volume and buyer type. No generic targeting.
Infrastructure, Built and Warmed
Email domains and LinkedIn accounts set up and warmed properly before a single message sends. You never touch a tool.
Buyer-Specific, AI-Personalised Copy
E-commerce brands get sourcing-focused messaging. Retailers and distributors get supply-chain-focused messaging. Never one generic pitch.
Email and LinkedIn, Run for You
Multi-channel outreach managed end to end to qualified buyer contacts. We send it, track it, and adjust it.
Reply Handling and Qualification
Every reply is read, qualified for order volume and fit, and moved forward. Only real buyers reach your calendar.
DeliHub CRM Included
A fully set up CRM instance so every conversation and meeting is tracked in one place, included in every plan.
Your pipeline, in one place
Every buyer conversation, tracked in DeliHub

Here's what we do instead
Reaching the right buyer before the RFQ exists
Trigger-based, never generic
A funding round, a supplier complaint, a new product launch. Every message ties back to something real and current.
Buyer-matched by type
E-commerce outreach leads with sourcing reliability. Retail outreach leads with supply chain capacity. Relevance drives replies.
Built to run ahead of the RFQ cycle
By the time a buyer formally requests quotes, you may already be the factory they have in mind.
Five buyer types, one managed system
E-commerce, retail, distribution, industrial and sourcing agents, each with tailored messaging.
How it works
One platform. Fully managed.
01
We build it
One ICP workshop with your team. We define your ideal buyer by category and order volume, then set up and warm your sending infrastructure.
02
We run it
Email and LinkedIn go live with buyer-specific, AI-personalised copy. We handle every reply and qualify order fit.
03
You close it
Qualified meetings land directly on your calendar. You show up to a warm conversation about a real order opportunity.

First real signal
Messaging tested across buyer types, first qualified conversations land
Steady state
Winning buyer segments scaled, e-commerce and retail channels compounding
Why manufacturers trust us with this
Built to be reviewed, not just believed
We do not have a published manufacturer case study yet. Here is what we can show you instead.
Full Message Visibility
Every template is visible in DeliHub before and after it sends. Nothing goes out that your team has not seen.
Buyer-Matched by Design
We ask for your priority buyer types and capacity constraints during onboarding and build messaging around them directly.
Cancel Anytime, No Lock-In
No long-term contract on monthly billing. If it is not producing qualified conversations, you are not stuck paying for it.
Built by People Who Sell for a Living
Deligatr's own team runs this exact playbook to generate its own client pipeline. We are not guessing at what works.
