What It Is

BobLead is a merchant lead purchasing service focused on local B2B prospecting. Users choose an industry, enter a city/state/ZIP-code radius, and can add filters such as minimum Google rating, whether the business has a website, and number of reviews. After payment, they receive a CSV file and Google Sheet within 24 hours. Its positioning is a one-time “buyout” lead list, rather than a monthly subscription.

Core Capabilities and Data

The site says it covers 10 industries, including contractors, restaurants, real estate agents, plumbers, dentists, lawyers, auto repair, salons and spas, fitness, and landscaping. It claims to have delivered 50K+ leads with 98% accuracy. Data sources include Google Places, licensing boards, review sites, and 5+ databases; some verticals also mention licenses, health inspections, MLS, bar associations, Instagram, and booking platforms. Each lead can include up to 27 fields, such as company name, address, phone number, email, social media, owner name, Google rating, business hours, website, and quality score. However, the examples on the site also show around 35% email coverage and around 15% owner-name coverage, so not every field is available for every lead.

Pricing and Delivery

Pricing is transparent: 100 leads for $29, 250 for $59, 500 for $99, and 1000 for $149, equivalent to roughly $0.29 to $0.15 per lead. Payment is a one-time Stripe checkout, with no account, no contract, and no auto-renewal. Delivery is by email as a CSV/Google Sheet, which can be imported into a CRM, spreadsheet, or email platform. However, there does not appear to be an API, native CRM integration, or instant download option.

Pros and Cons

The main advantages are that there is no subscription and the budget is easy to control, making it suitable for short-term tests in a specific city or industry. The industry-specific fields are fairly detailed, such as ratings, review counts, service radius, social media, and booking tools, which can help with personalized cold calling and cold email. The drawbacks are that there is limited detail on data accuracy, replacement rules, refund policy, compliance authorization, and update frequency; customer support channels are also not fully disclosed. Teams that rely heavily on email marketing should first validate email match rates and bounce rates.

Best Fit and Access from China

BobLead is suitable for sales teams, growth teams, marketing agencies, and teams selling SaaS, financial services, supply-chain services, or marketing services to local businesses in the United States. The site does not state whether access and payment are available from mainland China, so this remains unknown; Stripe payments may be affected by card type and region. Alternatives include Apollo, ZoomInfo, Lusha, UpLead, and Hunter. For domestic China use cases, options such as 企查查, 天眼查, 爱企查, or map-based lead scraping services may be considered.
