Selling to e-commerce merchants
Apps, agencies, 3PLs, photographers and freelancers whose customer is a store owner — this returns the customer directly.
The one platform source where the result is a shop rather than a profile — which means there is always a website to read, and the hit rate shows it.
Stores are found with a site-restricted search against myshopify.com for your niche. The store's subdomain becomes both its handle and its website, so unlike every other platform source there is no separate name lookup that can fail to match — the result already is the site.
No login, no app install, and nothing that touches a merchant's admin.
The store is then crawled for contact details. GoLeadX fetches the site's homepage and up to two contact-ish pages — contact, about, impressum, kontakt, imprint, team, support — and pulls every address, phone number and social link it finds, preferring an address on the business's own domain over a free mailbox. Every address is then checked for syntax, for a valid MX record on its domain, and — where SMTP verification is enabled — with a real probe against the receiving server. Results come back labelled valid, risky or invalid, and disposable domains are dropped. Shopify stores almost always carry a contact page, which is why this source has one of the highest email yields in the tool.
| Field | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| Store name | From the storefront title, cleaned. |
| Store domain | The myshopify.com origin, used as the website. |
| Email + status | From the store's contact or about page, verified. |
| Phone number | Where the store publishes one. |
| Social profiles | Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and others linked in the storefront. |

Finding stores already selling in a category you supply, with a contact address on the page.
A list of live stores in a niche, with the socials each one runs, is a market map as much as a lead list.
Every plan includes all eleven. Running two on the same niche costs only the credits — results deduplicate, so the overlap is not charged twice.
Google Maps lists millions of businesses and shows an address, a phone number and a website — but never an email. This closes that gap: the listings come from the Places API, the emails come from the sites those listings point at.
The source that catches everything the platforms miss: businesses that never claimed a map listing, never made a profile, and exist as a website and nothing else.
LinkedIn profiles are the best public index of who does what, and the worst place to find a working email. This uses the first fact and works around the second.
A large share of small businesses are easier to find on Instagram than anywhere else. Instagram gives you the name and the city; the name and the city are enough to find the site that carries the address.
The fastest way to judge any source is to run it against a market you already understand and check the rows against what you know. That takes about a minute.
