About this project
A local marketing agency with 5-15 employees was struggling with lead generation. Three sales reps spent 3+ hours per day manually prospecting on Google Maps — searching for businesses, copying details into spreadsheets, verifying contacts, and crafting outreach messages. Cost per lead was $45-60, well above the $15-20 target.
I built an automated pipeline on n8n that runs daily: Google Maps API discovers matching businesses, Hunter.io enriches with verified emails, OpenAI scores leads across 8 dimensions and generates personalized outreach, and Instantly handles multi-step follow-up sequences.
The system generates 500+ qualified leads monthly at $8-12 cost per lead (down from $45-60). Sales reps went from spending 25 minutes per lead manually to 30 seconds of automated processing. Follow-up completion rate jumped from 40% to 100%, and meetings booked increased from 8-12 to 35-45 per month.
