The problem it solves

You want a list of local businesses to reach out to, but manually searching Google Maps and copying details one by one eats up your day. You also need to know which prospects don't already have a website, since that's often your best opening.

Who it fits

A sales, marketing, or web design business that prospects for local clients.

How it works

  1. A search request comes in with a business type and location
  2. The system queries Google Maps listings for that search
  3. Results are sorted into businesses with and without a website
  4. Leads are saved into separate spreadsheets for easy follow-up
What you get

Local leads sorted by website status

You get local business leads from Google Maps automatically sorted into those with a website and those without one.

What you get

Two organized Google Sheets of leads, split by whether they have a website.

What you need

A Serper API key and a Google Workspace 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.
