Google My Business reviews often show business owner names. Combined with LinkedIn, you can find and contact them directly.
Why This Works
- Review responses often come from owners
- Local businesses are harder to reach
- Verified business presence
- Industry context from reviews
The Process
- Search Google Maps for your target industry
- Scrape business listings
- Extract owner/manager names from review responses
- Find them on LinkedIn
- Personalize outreach with local context
Scraping Tools
- Apify: Google Maps Scraper
- Outscraper: GMB data extraction
- PhantomBuster: Review scraping
