Description This n8n template demonstrates how to build a Auto Lead Gen & Outreach System for Local Businesses specifically designed to help businesses that don’t have a website yet. The workflow identifies local businesses (like bakeries, gyms, salons, etc.) that are missing an online presence, enriches their contact data, and sends personalized outreach messages — including your capability deck automatically attached from Google Drive. Use cases are simple but powerful: find businesses that are invisible online, show them the value of having a website, and present your services professionally with a ready-to-send portfolio. Good to know This workflow targets high-opportunity leads — businesses without websites. API usage (Google Maps & Search via Serper) may incur costs. A 20–40 second delay is added between emails to improve deliverability. Your capability deck is automatically fetched from Google Drive and attached to emails. How it works Fetch niches Niche data (e.g., bakeries, gyms) is pulled from Google Sheets. Discover businesses The workflow searches Google Maps to find businesses in those niches. Filter website presence Businesses that already have websites are filtered out — focusing only on those who need one. Enrich contact data Additional searches extract: Emails Instagram profiles Facebook pages Generate personalized outreach Custom emails and DMs are created highlighting: Their business The missed opportunity of not having a website A demo/example to show potential Attach capability deck A Google Drive node fetches your capability deck (portfolio/services document) and attaches it to the email automatically. Save leads All leads are stored in Google Sheets with contact details and outreach status.
