Cold Outreach: Scrape Leads with Dumpling AI & Vapi Calls

This workflow revolutionizes cold outreach for sales teams, agencies, and local service providers by automating lead generation and calling. It starts by pulling search queries (e.g., 'plumbers in Austin') from Google Sheets, scrapes business listings from Google Maps using Dumpling AI, and processes the data to extract business names, websites, and phone numbers. Leads without valid phones are filtered out, numbers are formatted for dialing (e.g., adding +1), and Vapi's AI assistant makes automated outbound calls to each qualified lead. All calls are logged back into Google Sheets for easy tracking and follow-up.

The benefits are immense: eliminates manual research and dialing, saving hours per day while scaling outreach to hundreds of leads. It's ideal for local services like plumbing, restaurants, or real estate, enabling personalized AI conversations that boost connection rates without human intervention. No more sifting through incomplete data—everything is cleaned and ready.

Use cases include generating restaurant leads in Chicago for a delivery service, scraping auto shops for marketing campaigns, or targeting gyms for partnership outreach. Setup is straightforward: connect Google Sheets, Dumpling AI API key, and Vapi credentials. Perfect for high-volume, low-effort sales automation.
