Template notes
Who is this for? This workflow is for digital marketers, small business owners, lead generation agencies, and VAs who need a scalable way to find and store local business leads using AI. It’s especially useful for teams that want to enrich leads with real-time news insights and save the structured data to Airtable.

What problem is this workflow solving? Manually researching local businesses and staying up to date with relevant news is time-consuming and inefficient. This automation eliminates that burden by using Dumpling AI chat agents to generate leads and context, GPT-4o to summarize, and Airtable to store everything in one place.

What this workflow does This AI workflow listens for a manual trigger in n8n and executes the following steps: 1. Extracts local business leads using a Local Business Agent from Dumpling AI. 2. Pulls current news related to the business type or location using a News Agent from Dumpling AI. 3. Uses GPT-4o to combine both responses into a human-readable summary. 4. Extracts structured lead data like name, category, and city. 5. Saves the summary and lead data into Airtable for easy follow-up.
