Manual local prospecting is more common than I thought

Something I keep noticing lately.

A lot of people building local outreach lists are still doing it the same way they did five years ago. Open a Maps listing, navigate to the website, find the contact page, copy the email into a spreadsheet. Repeat fifty times. Two hours for maybe 40 usable contacts.

What strikes me is how normalized it's become. Nobody questions it. It's just the process. Senior people do it the same way as people who just started.

I keep expecting it to be less common given how much tooling has changed around this kind of work. But every time I see it in practice it's still the default.

Anyone else still running into this or has your approach changed?
