The problem it solves

Building a prospect list by hand means hours of searching Yelp, guessing at emails, and copying details into a spreadsheet one business at a time. Many of the emails you find turn out to be dead ends, wasting your outreach effort.

Who it fits

Sales teams, agencies, and real estate professionals who need a steady list of qualified local business leads.

How it works

  1. You submit a business category and location to search
  2. The system pulls matching business listings from Yelp
  3. Duplicate and irrelevant listings are removed automatically
  4. AI searches each business website and picks the most likely owner email, then verifies it's real
  5. Verified leads land in an organized Google Sheet, sorted by whether they have an email or just a phone number
What you get

Qualified local leads added to your list automatically

You get a steady list of qualified local business leads, complete with verified emails and phone numbers, ready for outreach.

What you get

An organized Google Sheet of verified local business leads with names, websites, emails, and phone numbers.

What you need

A web scraping service, an AI provider account, an email verification service, and a Google account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
