You need a list of local businesses with real contact details, and then you need to actually reach them. Two tools that come up for this are LocalProspects and GetClient. Both start from Google Maps data, so the choice comes down to what happens after the list is built.
A note on fairness: everything said about LocalProspects here comes from public descriptions of the product. Features change, so check its website before deciding.
What LocalProspects focuses on
LocalProspects describes itself as an AI-powered local lead generation tool. From public descriptions, it builds prospect lists from live Google Maps data for any industry and location, and enriches them with things like owner names, emails, phone data and website research. One comparison mentions Maps rankings, ratings, reviews and hours as part of the data. An update note says each lead includes an email fetched from the business website, verified with an MX check.
The pitch is clear: get a richer, researched local lead list quickly. If the list itself is the product you want, that focus is a strength.
What GetClient focuses on
GetClient puts the list and the outreach in the same place. You search Google Maps by keyword and location, including bulk keywords and several cities at once. Each lead can include business name, category, address, phone, website, emails found, the owner's name and title with a confidence score, and social profiles, where those are public.
From there you can verify emails, save leads into folders, and send campaigns from your own Gmail, Outlook or SMTP mailboxes without exporting anything. Replies land in a shared Inbox.

Who should choose LocalProspects
LocalProspects is likely the better pick when:
- You care most about research depth per lead. If you want AI-generated notes about a business's website or marketing gaps to personalize a pitch, that is its stated strength.
- Review and ranking data drives your offer. Agencies selling reputation management or local SEO often qualify leads by ratings and Maps position. If that data is in the list, you save a step.
- You already have a sending setup you like. If your team runs outreach in another tool and only needs better lists, a dedicated list builder may fit well.
Who should choose GetClient
GetClient makes more sense when:
- You want one place for finding and emailing. No exporting a CSV, cleaning it, uploading it to a sender, then checking replies in another tab.
- You run follow-ups. The flow builder chains steps with delays and branches on If Opened, If NOT Opened, If Clicked and If NOT Clicked. Merge tags like {{params.name}}, {{params.firstname}} and {{params.city}} fill in per lead.
- You send from your own accounts. Connect several Gmail or SMTP inboxes, set send-day limits by weekday, and schedule. Each email can carry a one-click unsubscribe link, and unsubscribed addresses are skipped automatically. If that topic is new to you, read the list unsubscribe header explained.
- You want to try before paying. New accounts get 100 free credits with no card. See plans and credits.
How to decide in an afternoon
Run the same test in both tools. Pick one niche and one city you know, for example dentists in a mid-sized town. Pull 30 to 50 leads in each and compare:
- How many have a usable email that isn't a generic address you'd rather avoid?
- How many have an owner name you can trust?
- How long it takes to go from search to a sent first email, including any exports.
That third number is where the difference shows. A richer list that sits in a spreadsheet does less for you than a decent list that gets emailed the same day, and the reverse is true if your pitch depends on deep research.
Whichever you choose, check the email and privacy rules that apply where you and your recipients are. Our guide on GDPR and B2B cold email covers the basics, though it is not legal advice.
Looking at other options
If neither fits, compare similar local lead tools such as LeadSwift or D7 Lead Finder.
