The problem it solves

Building a list of local businesses for outreach or research means hours of manually searching Google Maps and copying details one by one. It's tedious, error-prone, and hard to keep organized as your list grows.

Who it fits

A sales team, agency, or researcher who needs local business lists for outreach or market research.

How it works

  1. You submit a location and business category through a simple form.
  2. The system searches Google Maps for matching businesses.
  3. It pulls each business's name, phone number, rating, address, website, and recent reviews.
  4. It saves everything into Google Sheets, skipping duplicates you already have.
What you get

Local leads landing straight in your spreadsheet

You type in a location and category, and matching local businesses appear directly in your spreadsheet, ready for you to start reaching out to today.

What you get

A Google Sheet of local business leads with contact details, ratings, and reviews.

What you need

A Google account for Sheets and a scraping service 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.
