Florida Fresh Business Leads (Sunbiz Scraper)

☀️ Florida Fresh Business Leads (Sunbiz Scraper)

Get new business leads 24 hours after they file. Beat the competition by 90 days.

Most lead generation tools (like Google Maps scrapers) are too slow. They only show you businesses months after they launch, once they've verified their address. By then, they already have a bank account, a website, and insurance.

Florida Fresh Business Leads connects directly to the Florida Department of State (Sunbiz) daily filing database. It identifies new LLCs and Corporations the morning after they file their paperwork. It also supports historical scraping by automatically falling back to archived year folders (e.g., 2020-2024) if an older date range is provided.

🚀 Why This Actor?

• ⚡ First-Mover Advantage: Reach new business owners before they even have a Tax ID (FEIN).
• 📬 Direct Mail Ready: Extracts the Mailing Address (often different from the physical address) so your letters actually get delivered.
• 👤 Decision Maker Contact: Parses out the "Authorized Person" (CEO/Owner) name, giving you a specific contact, not just "Current Resident."
• 🛡️ 100% Verified: Data comes directly from the official state government records (Sunbiz.org), not third-party databases.
