The problem it solves

Manually searching Google Maps city by city, copying down business details, and checking whether you already have that contact saved takes hours away from actually selling. It's repetitive work that doesn't scale as you expand to new markets.

Who it fits

A roofing company, sales team, or agency building local lead lists for home services clients.

How it works

  1. You enter a target city into a simple form
  2. The system searches Google Maps for roofing contractors in that city
  3. It pulls full details for each listing, including phone, website, rating, and address
  4. It checks results against your existing spreadsheet and removes duplicates
  5. New leads are saved to your spreadsheet with an instant email and Slack alert
What you get

Conversations with contractors who didn't know you existed

You get a fresh list of local roofing contractors pulled from Google Maps, with duplicates removed and new leads flagged instantly.

What you get

A growing spreadsheet of deduplicated local leads plus instant email and Slack alerts for each new one.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, a web scraping proxy subscription, a Gmail account, and a Slack workspace.

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.
