Generating leads with Perplexity Comet is stupidly fast.
No scraping tools. No manual copy‑paste.
Just Comet + Google Maps doing the heavy lifting for you.​​

Step‑by‑step post

1️⃣ Open Google Maps inside Perplexity Comet

• Open Comet and go to Google Maps.

• Allow location tracking in your browser so Maps centers on your city.

• Zoom into the area where your ideal clients live (city center, business district, specific neighborhood).​​

2️⃣ Search your ideal client niche

• In the Google Maps search bar, type the type of business you want:

  • “marketing agency”

  • “HVAC company”

  • “restaurant”

  • “dentist”

  • “law firm”

• Let Maps load the results on the left panel and map pins.​

3️⃣ Launch the Comet Assistant

• Click the Assistant icon in the top‑right of Comet to open the side panel.​

• The Assistant can use what’s on your screen as context, including the Google Maps results.​

4️⃣ Drop a simple lead‑gen prompt
Paste something like this:

“Using this Google Maps tab and my current view, scan all businesses that match the search results. I’m looking for [NICHE] in this area. For each business, extract:

• business name

• website (if available)

• contact email

• city / neighborhood

• 1–2 sentence description of what they do
  Return everything as a list I can copy into a spreadsheet.”​​

Comet will start visiting the listings, opening websites, and pulling details for you.​​

5️⃣ Add qualification filters (optional but powerful)
You can refine the same prompt with rules like:

• “Only include businesses with 4.2+ rating and at least 10 reviews.”

• “Skip franchises and global chains, focus on local companies.”

• “Prioritize businesses that look B2B‑focused.”​

6️⃣ Turn results into outreach‑ready leads
Once Comet gives you the list, ask it to:

• “Sort these leads by rating and number of reviews.”

• “Remove duplicates and only keep businesses in [YOUR CITY].”

• “Reformat this as CSV with columns: Name, Website, Email, Location, Description.”​

Drop that CSV into Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, or your CRM and you’ve just built a targeted lead list in minutes.​

7️⃣ Bonus: Get instant cold‑outreach angles
Finally, ask Comet:
“For each lead, write a 1–2 sentence cold email opener that references something specific from their description and hints at how my service could help them improve results.”​

Copy those openers into your outreach sequence and you’re ready to start booking calls.

This single Comet workflow can become: daily lead gen, a repeatable SOP for your team, or a templated “Maps → Leads → Outreach” system you run in every new city or niche.
