Have two Grok Bots set up cold-email outreach and research local leads you approve

Try it yourself

What you get

A researched lead sheet and personalized first emails you approve, sent from a separate warmed-up domain.

Tools

• Grok Bot (two bots)
• Google Workspace
• Instantly

Time / cost: Author: 23 leads so far; plans 20 to 30 emails a day from late October

Steps

1. Have one bot handle setup: outreach domain, Workspace inbox, email authentication, sending tool.
2. Have the second bot research leads into a sheet with one improvement idea each.
3. Draft short first emails: one observation and a soft ask, no mockups or prices.
4. Review and approve each email; only reply-handling needs you after that.

Copy-ready prompt

Find [NUMBER] small businesses in [AREA] that [VISIBLE PROBLEM, e.g. have no website or an outdated one]. For each, add a row to [SHEET]: name, site, the business contact email listed on their own site, what's weak and one specific improvement. Then draft a 3-sentence first email per lead: one specific observation about their site, one line on who I am, and a soft ask for a quick chat. No mockups or prices. Don't send anything; I'll approve each email.

Watch out: Follow anti-spam law where you send (for example Canada's CASL or the US CAN-SPAM Act): honest sender details and an easy opt-out. No results are in yet.
