The method was shared on r/B2BSales in October 2026 by Mike Lovatt. It uses three tools: Claude (the desktop app or Claude Code, though ChatGPT works too), a DataForSEO account (new accounts receive one dollar of free trial credit, enough for several Google Maps searches), and a Hunter account on the free plan (fifty credits a month to find and verify email addresses). Connect Claude to DataForSEO through DataForSEO's official MCP server. Their help centre has a guide called \"Connect Claude to DataForSEO MCP.\" You paste in your API login and password. Claude can then query DataForSEO directly. Ask Claude to pull businesses with a prompt like: \"Using DataForSEO, find artificial turf installation businesses on Google Maps in San Jose. Give me name, website, phone, rating and review count in a table.\" Then run those websites through Hunter to find and verify each email address. Never skip verification. Sending to dead addresses is the fastest way to get a sending domain flagged.\nSearch the exact trade, not the broad category. \"Artificial turf installation\" returns different results than \"landscaper.\" Mike's post showed this clearly. Searching \"landscapers in San Jose\" returned fifty businesses. Nineteen were tree services. Only eleven mentioned turf anywhere on their site. San Jose alone did not have fifty real turf installers, so the area was widened to the Bay Area. The corrected list had thirty-six real turf companies, twenty-two that mentioned turf on their own site, and zero tree services. Of those thirty-six, only nine listed an owner's name and two had a personal-looking email. The rest were shared inboxes. Write your outreach for whoever opens the shared inbox. Do not write \"Hi Dave\" when you are probably landing in info@ or office@. If your city is small, widen the area. Broad trades like cafes...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/M57-zlUGHXBPDZrDLbepWRrOt_I4AFRWCzyAR4AHOW8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lMmQ5/MDBjZmRkMTBlZDY1/ZWU4NzE5YTNkMTFk/NGY3My5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
