# Small Business Owners in the US with Emails

**Use case:** 

Owners, founders and CEOs of US companies with 1 to 50 employees, each with a live work or personal email, plus name, title, company, domain and LinkedIn URL. Product owner and process owner titles are excluded. Founder, CEO and owner were the three most searched job titles on our lead Actors in October 2026. Add a state or city in Cities, or an industry, to fit your offer.

## FAQ

### What does the small business owners task return?

The small business owners task returns owners, founders and CEOs of US companies with 1 to 50 employees. Every row has a live work or personal email, name, title, company, domain and LinkedIn URL.

### Why are product owners excluded?

Owner as a title word also matches Product Owner and Process Owner, who do not own a business. The small business owners task drops them with Exclude job titles before anything is counted or charged.

### Can I narrow the owners list to one state, city or industry?

Add a state or city such as texas or chicago to Cities in the small business owners task, or an industry name such as Construction to Industries. Both narrow the list inside the United States.

### Do I pay for owners without an email?

Owners without a live email are skipped for free in the small business owners task. You pay per lead delivered; the current price per 1,000 leads is on the Actor's Pricing tab.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/b2bsearch/b2b-leads-finder.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
