Use AI agents to find local businesses and send audits

They used five Grok bots to find likely leads, write custom audits, send outreach, and manage replies until clients signed on.

What they did
They set up five Grok bots with separate inboxes through AgentMail. One bot gathered 468 local businesses and cut the list by 69% using a single rule focused on problems it could fix within a week. Other bots logged proof, made one-page audits with screenshots, drafted and sent emails, and handled reply threads, while a fifth bot blocked any message that seemed likely to irritate the recipient.
How it went
The bots sent 140 emails and received 27 replies, with 23 people asking for calls. So far, 11 clients have been onboarded for about $27,410 total. The full run cost about $12.
Tips
A setup like this takes time up front: they spent one evening connecting inboxes, writing bot instructions, and scheduling the scan. Build in a final review step before any email goes out so a bot can catch drafts that feel off.

Try it yourself with Grok Bot

You are helping me find likely customers for [my service] in [city or region]. First, collect [number] local [type of business] and filter them down to the best [smaller number] using [clear criteria]. For each remaining business, gather a few specific facts that show why they may need help, then draft a one-page audit and a short outreach email from a separate inbox. Before you send anything, stop and show me the full list, the audit notes, and each draft email so I can approve, edit, or reject them. Do not send, submit, delete, or take any irreversible action until I explicitly say to continue.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
