Why is tenant contact data so hard to get right?
Tenants come in three very different shapes. A local tenant may be a single owner-operator whose name appears nowhere online. A national tenant has a real estate team, but the right person depends on region and format. An international brand entering the U.S. may route decisions through an expansion lead or development partner. Most contact finders are built for one of these and guess at the rest.
How does Dan AI find decision makers at each tier?
| Tenant tier | Who typically decides | What Dan AI provides |
|---|---|---|
| Local tenants | Owner-operators, principals of local multi-unit groups, franchisees | Verified direct contacts for the person who signs |
| National tenants | Real estate directors, site selection and development leads | Verified decision makers across chains and national brands |
| International brands | U.S. expansion and international development leads | Verified contacts for brands growing into new markets |
Why do verified tenant contacts matter?
Every bad contact costs twice. Once in wasted outreach, and again in the deal that went to a faster broker. Dan AI's direct contacts are verified and screened, so a list of 40 targets is a list of 40 reachable people.
A contact finder is only as good as the share of its contacts that answer.
How does Dan AI know which tenants to look up?
Contact finding starts with the right target list. Dan AI's property-tenant matchmaking engine proposes tenants that fit a property. Void analysis shows which categories the trade area is missing, and Foot Traffic Data gives every outreach email a reason to be opened.
