New Business Leads – Newly Licensed Calgary Businesses

Every business that just got its first City of Calgary licence, about 280 a month. 2¢ each.

Comes from the City of Calgary's official business licence data, updated daily. Each lead has the trade name, address, community, every licence type it holds (food service, contractor, personal service, retail, etc.), a home-based flag and the first-issued date. Only first-time licences are included, never renewals.

FAQ

Where does the data come from? The "Calgary Business Licences" dataset on data.calgary.ca, published by the City of Calgary under the Open Government Licence – City of Calgary. Does it include phone numbers? The source doesn't publish them. Enrich with your usual tool. How do I avoid duplicates? Keep "Only new since last run" on, and use a different dedupe store name for each separate feed. Owner names or phones? Calgary doesn't publish them. Enrich them from the trade name and address. Need another state or city? Request it in the Issues tab. LeadSignal adds new feeds regularly.
