Freight forwarder leads
Forwarders win business at the moment a shipper’s flows change: a plant comes online, imports surge, production reshores. LaneRadar finds those dated demand events in the public record, verifies them, and sells each to one buyer, exclusively, for 30 days.
Timing beats history in forwarder sales
Most forwarder prospecting runs on trade data: last year’s bills of lading, everyone’s to buy, already worked by every competitor with the same subscription. The shippers worth winning are the ones whose logistics are about to change, the reshored plant that hasn’t picked a customs partner, the new DC whose inbound program isn’t settled. Those show up as public demand events months before they show up in import records.
Every LaneRadar lead carries its event, its date, and its public-record citation, with the decision-maker attached. Domestic-lane focused? See shipper leads and freight broker leads.
Freight forwarder leads, answered
- What is a freight forwarder lead?
- A company with a current, dated reason to need international or multimodal freight services: a new plant importing equipment, a distribution center ramping inbound goods, a manufacturer reshoring production. A usable lead pairs the event with the person who owns the logistics decision, so a forwarder's outreach lands while the need is live.
- How are these different from trade-data leads (import records)?
- Import-record tools show who shipped in the past, useful history, sold to every subscriber. LaneRadar leads are forward-looking demand events: the expansion was just announced, the facility is ramping now, the flows are about to start. You reach the shipper before the routing decisions are settled rather than after a competitor is already booked.
- Do forwarders and brokers get the same leads?
- The board is one inventory of shipper demand events. Exclusivity is what differs: each lead sells to exactly one buyer for 30 days, whether that buyer is a domestic broker, a forwarder, or a 3PL. If a lead's event implies ocean or air volumes, the first forwarder to buy it owns that window.
- What does a freight forwarder lead cost?
- From $99, scaling with signal strength, refundable if the lead is defective. No subscription; browsing the board is free, so you can judge inventory against your trade lanes before spending anything.
