This episode walks through a practical method shared by Mike Lovatt on the B2B Sales subreddit in October 2026. The method uses three tools: Claude or ChatGPT, a DataForSEO account, and a Hunter account on the free plan. New DataForSEO accounts get one dollar of free trial credit. That is enough for a few Google Maps searches. Hunter's free plan gives you fifty credits a month to find and verify email addresses. Total cost for a test run is about one dollar.\nThe process has three steps. First, 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. Second, ask Claude to pull businesses from Google Maps using a specific prompt: niche, city, and the fields you need such as name, website, phone, rating, and review count. Third, run each website through Hunter to find the email address and verify it before you send anything. Skipping verification is the fastest way to get your domain flagged. Search the exact trade, not the broad category. \"Artificial turf installation\" returns useful results. \"Landscaper\" does not. A real test from the post searched San Jose for artificial turf installers. Searching \"landscapers in San Jose\" returned fifty results. Nineteen were tree services. Only eleven mentioned turf anywhere on their site. Widening the area to the Bay Area and fixing the search term returned thirty-six real turf companies, twenty-two with turf mentioned on their own site, and zero tree services. Pipefire's free lead tool, built on Scout, Pipefire's own lead engine, does this filtering automatically. Pipefire serves agency owners and B2B service businesses that need a steady flow of new client conversations. Pipefire delivers fresh leads found the day you ask, not pulled from a bought or shared database....","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}
