The problem it solves

You need a list of local businesses to reach out to, but manually searching Google Maps, visiting each website, and copying down contact emails takes forever. By the time you've built a usable list, half your day is gone.

Who it fits

Sales teams, marketing agencies, and local business owners who need to build prospect lists for outreach.

How it works

  1. You add a search term like a city and business type to a spreadsheet
  2. The system searches Google Maps for matching listings
  3. It visits each business website and looks for an email address
  4. Duplicate and invalid entries are removed
  5. The clean list of businesses and emails is saved to Google Sheets
What you get

Prospect lists built from map searches

You get a spreadsheet full of local businesses and their email addresses, built automatically from a simple search you choose.

What you get

A cleaned spreadsheet of business names, websites, and email addresses ready for outreach.

What you need

A Google Sheets account. No paid search API is required.

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.
