A weekly list of new businesses in your county, before they open and buy their signs.
Every Monday you get the storefronts that just filed for a Texas sales-tax permit, checked, scored, and paired with an intro you can send.
Free sample for your county. No card, no contract.
Public filings, checked every week
Texas Comptroller sales-tax permit data, updated weekly
Every lead traces back to a public permit record. Businesses file before they start selling, so the list sees them early.

Get to the job before anyone else knows it exists
Reach owners before a competitor pitches them
Businesses file for a permit before they start selling, often weeks before opening day.
Quote while they're still choosing vendors
Reach them while they're still lining up vendors, not after the sign is ordered.
No cold-calling random businesses
Every lead is a new storefront-type business in your county: restaurants, retail, salons, medical, fitness, auto.
Know who to call first
Each lead is marked Opening soon or Just opened and scored A/B/C for how likely it needs signage now.
Know what to say
A short intro email, a call opener, and a walk-in line come with every lead on Core.
A short list, not a database
One focused sheet each Monday, sorted by score, instead of a giant export.
Three steps, every Monday
The state publishes new sales-tax permits as public data. Many list a first-sales date that's weeks away. That gap is your window.

Questions shops ask
Where does the data come from?
The Texas Comptroller's public "Active Sales Tax Permit Holders" data on the state's open-data portal. Businesses get a permit before they start selling, and many report a first-sales date weeks out. We filter it, check each lead against public listings, and sort it for sign shops. Storefront Radar is independent and not affiliated with the Texas Comptroller.
Which counties do you cover?
Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton, Wise, Cooke, Montague, and Wichita. Seats are limited to 3 shops per county, or 1 if someone takes the exclusive. Ask if your county is still open.
How does delivery work?
Every Monday morning your list lands in a Google Sheet shared with you (CSV included), and we email you when it's ready. Core plans also get a smaller Thursday drop of new filings.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Every plan is month to month. Reply to any email or write to [email protected] and we'll stop at the end of your current month.
Will other sign shops get the same leads?
At most 3 shops share a county on Core. With an Exclusive county plan, no one else gets your county's list.
Do you contact the businesses on my list?
No. The list is yours to work. We give you the timing and the words; you make the contact.
