Google Places: search by industry
Enter an industry such as dentists, hotels or restaurants. Google results can include business names, addresses, listed websites, ratings and review counts where available. You can also apply a minimum review count.
Local Business Lead Generation
Local business lead generation by country, city and industry.
Search for local business prospects with Google Places or Geoapify. Choose a country, city and industry or category, review available company information and analyze listed websites before deciding who to contact.
Free includes 5 searches in total, with up to 10 companies per search. Your own business data API key is required. Provider usage charges are separate.
Local business lead generation works best when
you know more than a company name and address.
The businesses you discover still need to be
researched, qualified and prioritized before
they become useful sales prospects.
LeadNaro brings location-based business discovery
together with website analysis, prospect
prioritization, CRM and AI-assisted outreach in
one practical workflow.
Choose Google Places or Geoapify for business searches
Start with a country and city, then choose the source that fits your research. Each source uses its own API key and can return different businesses or available details.
Geoapify: search supported categories
Choose a supported category such as Dentists, Medical clinics, Pharmacies, Restaurants, Cafes, Hotels or Supermarkets. This integration uses OpenStreetMap-based business data and can return names, addresses and listed websites. Google ratings and reviews are not included.
Coverage and website availability vary by source and location. A missing website field means the source did not supply one; it does not prove that the business has no website. Review important details before outreach.
A local business lead generation workflow from discovery to outreach
Search by location
Discover businesses in the cities, areas and markets that matter to your sales strategy.
Target business categories
Focus your research on the industries and types of companies that match the services you provide.
Analyze websites
Review prospect websites for technical, usability and business signals that may reveal practical opportunities.
Prepare relevant outreach
Use verified prospect information to create AI-assisted first-contact messages with more useful context. Review and edit each draft, then send through your own connected SMTP account after confirming the recipient.
Turn local business discovery into qualified B2B prospects
Finding a business does not automatically make it a qualified lead. A company may be in the right location and industry but still have no obvious reason to need your services.
LeadNaro helps you add research before outreach, so you can decide which discovered businesses deserve further attention and which are less relevant to your current prospecting goals.
Example: build a list of hotel prospects in Munich
Suppose you provide website or SEO services and want to research hotels in Munich. Use this workflow to build a focused list rather than contacting unrelated companies.
- Enter Germany as the country and Munich as the city. With Google Places, enter Hotels as the industry; with Geoapify, select the Hotels category.
- Choose the service you offer and start with a small search. Review the businesses returned by the source and check their available websites.
- Analyze a listed website and review the findings. Confirm any issue that matters to your offer before presenting it as a reason to contact the business.
- Keep relevant prospects in your workspace and track their CRM status, notes and follow-up activity. Prepare a message based on the information you reviewed.
This is an example research process, not a promise that every result needs your services or will become a customer. For an agency-specific example, see lead generation for web design agencies.

Keep local prospects organized after you find them

- Review company and website research.
- Track prospect status and notes.
- Record outreach and follow-up activity.
- Organize interested, won and lost opportunities.
Questions about local business prospecting with LeadNaro
Can I search without an AI connection?
Yes. Business searches require your own Google Places or Geoapify API key. An AI API key is optional for searches alone. To generate AI outreach, connect OpenAI, Mistral or DeepSeek and add your sender profile. A ChatGPT subscription is not required.
What does the Free plan include?
The Free plan includes 5 searches in total, with up to 10 companies per search. These are lifetime searches, not a monthly allowance. Google, Geoapify and AI provider usage charges are separate from your LeadNaro plan. See plans and search limits.
Does every result include a website or contact details?
No. Available information depends on what the selected source supplies. Some businesses have no listed website, and a business listing is not a verified decision-maker contact. Review the information before using it.
Are the results ready-to-buy leads?
The results are businesses to research. Location, industry and website findings can help you assess relevance, but they do not confirm buying intent, budget or interest. Qualification remains part of your sales process.
