Meet the founder

Wade L. is the founder of LocaMapHQ. He spent years running client campaigns at a digital agency, where one task kept coming up: finding local businesses that needed help.

Every prospecting cycle meant hours of manual research — searching Google Maps, checking websites, looking up reviews, copying data into spreadsheets. It worked, but it was slow, tedious, and hard to scale.

Wade built LocaMapHQ to solve that specific problem. The idea was simple: what if you could type in a city and an industry, and get back a scored, enriched list of every relevant business — without touching a spreadsheet?

What started as an internal tool became the product it is today. LocaMapHQ is built for the kind of work Wade knows firsthand: local business research, agency lead generation, and prospect discovery at scale.

“Local business prospecting shouldn't be the bottleneck. I wanted a tool that made the research part fast so teams could spend their time on the work that actually matters — conversations, proposals, and results.”

LocaMapHQ is his bet that better tools make better agencies. No hype, no fluff — just a tool that does one thing well.
