Automates location grid generation, lead discovery, email extraction, personalized outreach, and real-time dashboard reporting.
The AI agent automates the complete local lead generation workflow from discovery to outreach. It generates a targeted location grid covering major US cities using a 1.5km radius, tracks searches to prevent duplicates, and processes 50 points per day. It discovers businesses with Google Places, enriches data with details, extracts emails from websites, and sends personalized emails through SendGrid, all while updating a real-time dashboard.

Scrape websites for emails, deduplicate by domain, and send personalized cold emails via SendGrid while updating the dashboard.
A realistic daily run and its tangible outcome.
Scenario: A marketing agency configures the AI agent to cover five major US cities with a daily batch size of 50 searches. Over the course of one business day, the agent generates the location grid, discovers around 46 unique leads, extracts valid emails for 38 prospects, and runs an A/B test with two email templates. By end-of-day, the real-time dashboard displays all leads, their contact info, and outreach status, with 0 invalid emails and 2 high-potential opportunities flagged for follow-up.
Roles that gain clear, concrete value from the AI agent.
Build client lead lists quickly with localized targeting and measurable outcomes.
Fill local pipelines with validated leads and track outreach efficiency.
Systematically reach nearby businesses and grow local revenue.
Standardize local outreach across locations with consistent data.
Source local decision-makers for corporate events and partnerships.
Identify early adopters in the local market and accelerate outreach.
Key tools the AI agent connects to and what it does inside each.
Find nearby businesses and obtain core data (name, address, rating, place ID).
Fetch phone numbers, websites, and hours for enriched profiles.
Extracts email addresses from discovered business websites and filters out invalid entries.
Sends personalized cold emails with rate limiting and A/B testing templates.
Stores leads in a Leads Database and hosts templates for onboarding dashboards.
Feeds real-time lead activity into the reporting dashboard.
Orchestrates the entire workflow from grid generation to outreach and dashboard update.
Practical scenarios where the AI agent shines.
Common concerns about setup, data quality, and workflows.
The agent automates five core stages: grid-based prospect discovery using Google Places, data enrichment via Places API, email extraction from websites, personalized outreach through SendGrid, and live dashboard reporting. It runs daily, deduplicates data, validates emails, and records outreach status. The entire flow is designed to be hands-free after setup, with configurable city targets and batch sizes. All results are surfaced in a real-time reporting interface for quick analysis and follow-up.
The default setup targets five major US cities with a 1.5km search radius. You can customize target locations, radius, and daily batch size to match API quotas and local priorities. The grid is designed to cover urban cores while minimizing duplicates. You can add or remove cities through configuration without touching the core workflow. Changes apply to subsequent daily runs automatically.
Emails are extracted from business websites and then filtered to remove placeholders and invalid addresses. Domains are deduplicated to avoid duplicate outreach. Lead data is validated by cross-checking with available website data and basic consistency checks (name, address, website). Invalid or suspected fake emails are automatically flagged and excluded from the dashboard. The workflow maintains a clean, exportable leads database for subsequent follow-up.
Emails are sent through SendGrid with deliberate rate limiting to avoid spam flags. Two templates are used to test messaging variants (A/B testing) while maintaining consistent sender identity. Personalization uses business name, industry, and first name when available. The system logs delivery outcomes and bounces to prevent re-sending to invalid addresses. Opt-out handling and compliance considerations are supported through configuration.
A webhook feeds the latest lead data into the real-time dashboard, displaying discovered leads, contact details, and outreach status. The dashboard filters out invalid emails and presents a clean, actionable data view. You can export the data for additional analysis or reporting. Updates occur as soon as daily runs complete, giving near real-time visibility into progress.
Yes. Email templates are configurable and support personalization tokens for business name, industry, and first name. You can adjust subject lines, body content, and call-to-action across the two templates. Fields such as city, company size, and industry can be used to tailor messages further. Changes apply to future outreach runs and can be tested with the 2-template A/B approach.
You'll need a Google Cloud Platform account for the Places API key, a SendGrid account for email sending, and Google Sheets to host templates and the leads database. Basic n8n knowledge helps with configuration; the workflow is designed to be plug-and-play after initial setup. There are no hard-coded limits beyond your API quotas, but you may need to adjust batch size and city coverage based on usage. Ongoing costs are primarily API usage and SendGrid sending volumes.
