For agencies

Find new businesses before they build their website.

A company that incorporated this week needs a name, a brand, a website and a way to be found — and hasn't chosen an agency yet. Filter the newest UK businesses by sector and location and pitch while the decisions are still open.

The job

The first weeks are when the work gets commissioned

New businesses decide on branding, a website and their marketing in their earliest weeks — and once they've picked an agency, that door closes for a year or more. The problem is finding them at that exact moment. CompaniesIQ lists every new incorporation within 24 hours, filtered to the sectors and places where your agency does its best work.

How CompaniesIQ helps

What you get.

Newly formed businesses

Every UK incorporation, searchable within 24 hours — build a rolling list of companies that need a brand, a site and a marketing plan and haven't commissioned one yet.

Your ideal client, filtered

Narrow by sector and location so you pitch the businesses that match your positioning — local trades, e-commerce, professional services or funded startups.

Context before you pitch

Sector, region and activity data on every company means your outreach can be specific and relevant, not a generic 'we do websites' email.

Feed your pipeline

Export the list to CSV or the API and run it through your outbound — a fresh batch of qualified prospects every week.

FAQ

Questions from marketing agencies.

How can agencies find new businesses that need a website?

New companies need branding, a website and marketing in their first weeks — and CompaniesIQ lists every UK incorporation within 24 hours. Filter by sector and location to build a list of businesses that fit your agency, then reach out while they're still making those decisions.

Can I find new companies needing marketing or SEO in a specific area?

Yes. Combine location and sector filters — for example new e-commerce companies nationally, or new professional-services firms in your city — so you only pitch businesses you can genuinely help and reach.

What details do I get to personalise outreach?

Company name, incorporation date, registered office, SIC activity codes, status and the directors — enough to make your pitch specific to what the business actually does and who founded it, rather than a generic template.

Can I export the prospects?

Yes. Any list exports to CSV, and Team and Enterprise add API access to push prospects into your outbound tool. The data is public record under the Open Government Licence; your outreach still needs to follow UK marketing rules (PECR/GDPR).

Is there a free plan?
