The problem it solves

Building a prospect list means searching Google Maps one business at a time, then digging through each website for an email or social link. It's slow, repetitive work that eats up hours you could spend actually selling.

Who it fits

Marketing agencies and sales teams who need a steady stream of local business leads with contact details.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system searches Google Maps for businesses matching your criteria
  2. Basic details like name, address, and website are saved to Google Sheets
  3. Businesses with a website have their pages scraped for contact information
  4. Emails and social profiles like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram are extracted
  5. Everything is saved to Google Sheets, organized and ready for outreach

A running spreadsheet of local businesses with contact details ready for outreach.

What you need

An Apify account, a Firecrawl account, and Google Sheets.

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.
