Building the Chicago list
The workflow is the same one behind every number above. Search "law firms" in Chicago at City coverage - the same 3x3 sweep - and you get up to 180 businesses with names, addresses, phone numbers, websites, ratings and review counts. Click enrich, and each website is read for published emails, extra phone numbers and social profiles. Export the CSV and the campaign is ready.
The 6% with no website are not waste, depending on who you are. For a web designer or a marketing agency that missing field is the qualifying signal, and those businesses still come with a phone number.
