Targeted Email Lists of Digital Marketing Agency Owners, Built Just For You

Digital Marketing Agency Email Lists for Teams Selling to Agencies

Agencies are some of the busiest buyers in B2B. They are always adding tools, white-label partners, freelancers and fulfillment help so they can take on more clients. Software companies, white-label SEO and PPC shops, staffing firms and fellow agencies looking for partners use Coldlytics to reach the people who make those calls: agency founders, owners, partners and directors.

Agencies are also a market we know well, because many of our own customers run one. Voyager DB holds deep data on digital marketing, SEO, paid media and web design agencies. Filter by category, location, headcount and seniority, then reveal verified contacts. Below is a real search with real numbers, including the part where our first search came up short.

How to Build a Digital Marketing Agency Email List in Voyager

Here is a real search we ran in the Coldlytics dashboard in October 2026. The goal: founders and leaders of small and mid-sized marketing agencies around Chicago. We used the People tab so we could see every person before revealing anyone.

1Step 1: Run a specific search in Voyager DB

Open Voyager DB and switch to the People tab. Under Seniority, include Owners/Founders and Directors & Executives. At agencies with a few dozen staff, directors often own a budget or a client relationship, so they are worth reaching alongside the founders.

Next, open Location and add Chicago, IL, USA with a 40 mile radius.

Then, under Categories, include Digital Marketing and Marketing Agency, and open Headcount and set it from 2 to 50 to focus on independent agencies rather than solo freelancers or large holding company offices.

Our first, tighter search (10 miles, owners only, 5 to 25 staff) found only 4 people who were new to us, so we used the wider settings above, which brought the search to 311 people at 144 agencies. Most results are marketing and digital agencies, with a few design and engineering roles mixed in.

2Step 2: Instantly reveal contacts and tag them

Click Reveal Contacts. Of the 311 people, 166 were new and 145 were already in our Contacts, which cost nothing and still join the tag. We capped How many people at 80 and created the tag Digital Marketing Chicago. One direct dial was available, but we left it out.

The cost shows before you click: up to 80 credits. 19 contacts were already verified for deliverability, and the rest would be checked live at reveal time.

3Step 3: Check what was delivered and what it cost

80 verified emails plus 2 free catch-all emails were delivered, for 80 credits. Five emails failed live verification, so they were not delivered or charged.

4Step 4: Send the shortfall to Contact Research

We capped this reveal at 80, so start by revealing the rest of the new contacts in Voyager. Our search found 311 people at 144 Chicago agencies. Voyager only lists the people it already has, so it stops there. If you need more agencies than that, or other roles at the same ones, Contact Research finds agency founders or heads of growth for you, priced per contact found.

Click Find more in the reveal summary. That opens Contact Research with your search already filled in. In Targeting, choose the Key Decision Makers seniority and, if you like, specific job titles. You can also tick Find new companies beyond my search results and set the location and industry, so our team keeps sourcing companies that match when a smaller market runs thin. The screenshots below are from our construction search, but the steps are the same.

In Deliver, choose the data points you need and add any notes for the research team. The footer shows the cost before you launch, at 5 credits per researched contact.

When you are happy, click Launch Task. Researched contacts are delivered to your dashboard, usually within 24 hours on business days.

5Step 5: Find your list in Contacts and export it

Everything you reveal or research lands in Contacts. Filter by the Digital Marketing Chicago tag to see just this list.

Then click Export All to Download as CSV or send the list straight to HubSpot or Instantly.

Prefer to start from companies? Use the Companies tab

You do not have to start from people. Switch to the Companies tab and filter on company-level fields such as Categories, Location, Revenue and Headcount. Person-level filters like Seniority do not apply on this tab, so they drop off.

With the same Digital Marketing, Marketing Agency, Chicago and headcount filters, the Companies tab shows 1,620 companies, each with its website, phone, address and city, so you can sanity check the list before you reveal anyone.

That is more than the 311 people in our People search, because the Companies tab lists every matching business, not only the ones with a person who fits the seniority you picked. Click Reveal Contacts to choose the Seniority, Department and Contacts per company you want, so you reach the right person at each business.

Agency Segments

Digital Marketing Agencies Email List

Agencies with 5 to 25 staff are founder led and always looking for tools, white-label partners and talent. Owners/Founders is the right seniority. Technologies helps you find agencies that use a specific stack, such as HubSpot partners.

SEO and PPC Agencies Email List

Search-focused agencies buy data, reporting software and fulfillment partners. Founders and heads of SEO or paid media are the contacts. Website Quality is less useful here, since most agencies have strong sites, so lean on headcount and location.

Web Design Agencies Email List

Web design shops are often 1 to 10 people and sell to local businesses. Owners are the decision makers. Pair the category with a metro radius for partnership or white-label outreach.
