HVAC Lead Researcher — Find Qualified Companies Running Paid Ads

Every lead should be manually checked before being added. I would rather receive 60 highly qualified leads than 300 poorly researched leads. If the quality is good, there will be opportunities for ongoing work and larger lead lists. HVAC Lead Researcher — Find Qualified Companies Running Paid Ads I’m looking for a detail-oriented lead researcher to build a highly targeted list of HVAC companies in the United States for my AI automation agency. This is not a basic Google Maps scraping job. Every company must be manually researched and meet the qualification criteria below. Ideal Customer Profile Each HVAC company should preferably meet the following: 2–20 employees 1 primary location Independent/local HVAC company — no franchises or large multi-location companies Established but still has room to scale 50–100+ Google reviews preferred Maximum 300 Google reviews Must be actively operating and serving residential customers REQUIRED: The company must currently be running Facebook or Instagram Ads. The company must currently be running at least one of the following: Facebook Ads Instagram Ads Google Search Ads Google Local Services Ads (LSA) Please identify exactly which type of advertising they are currently running. Do not include companies where you cannot find evidence of active paid advertising. REQUIRED: Check Existing Automation I want companies that do not already have a sophisticated AI lead-response system in place. For every company, manually check for: 1. AI voice receptionist 2. AI phone answering system 3. Website AI chatbot 4. Basic website live chat 5. Missed-call text-back 6. Automated SMS follow-up 11. Review-request automation Any other lead-response or customer communication automation For Each Prospect, Report: Automation Level: None Basic Advanced Unclear Automation Type(s) Found: Write exactly what automation they appear to be using. Examples: Missed-call text-back only Website chatbot Basic live chat Online booking only Automated SMS follow-up Review automation AI voice receptionist AI chatbot + SMS automation No automation found Unable to determine Also provide a r brief explanation of the evidence whenever possible. A company with basic automation is still acceptable. However, do not include companies that clearly already have a sophisticated system similar to what an AI automation agency would provide, such as an AI voice receptionist combined with automated qualification, follow-up, and appointment booking. Growth Signals — Strongly Preferred Prioritize businesses showing signs that they want to grow, such as: Active hiring/careers page Currently hiring HVAC technicians, CSRs, dispatchers, or salespeople Expanding their service area Recently added new services Frequently posting on social media Investing heavily in advertising Growing review count Multiple service vehicles/technicians Website messaging focused on growth, financing, memberships, or promotions The more growth signals, the better. Information Needed for Each Lead Please provide: 1. Business name 2. Website 3. City and state 4. Google Business Profile 5. Google review count 6. Google rating 7. Estimated employee/company size 8. Number of locations 9. Facebook page 10. Owner/decision-maker name 11. Owner/decision-maker title 12. decision-maker phone number 13. Business phone number 14. Owner/decision-maker email 15. Type of ads currently running FB/Google 16. Meta Ad Library search URL for this company. 17. Automation level: None / Basic / Advanced / Unclear 18. Exact type of automation currently being used 19. Evidence of automation found 20. Growth signals found 21. Brief notes explaining why this company is a strong prospect IMPORTANT I care much more about quality than quantity. Do not send me: Huge HVAC companies National brands Franchises Companies with 300+ Google reviews Companies with many locations One-person businesses with little sign of growth Companies that are not actively advertising Companies that already have sophisticated AI lead automation Generic scraped lists Every lead should be manually checked before being added. I would rather receive 60 highly qualified leads than 300 poorly researched leads. If the quality is good, there will be opportunities for ongoing work and larger lead lists.
