Personalised 'can i buy you lunch at _nameOfLocalRestaurant' outreach (show and tell)

On a recent episode of Acquiring Minds podcast, a Searcher named Derek Turner told how he " wouldn’t try to ask what their EBITDA is over the phone or request financials without them even seeing my face. I would simply say I’m local and that I like what I’ve seen so far about their business. Then, I’d ask if I could buy them lunch or visit them at their office". This made me do some experiments and see if this could be automated.

Given the frequent discussion of Automation and AI in this forum I thought some of you may be interested to see what's possible. The TLDR version is - I automated asking Owners out to lunch at a restaurant that is nearby to their location.

I used Clay.com for this and can show any searcher (free, just to be clear) how to copy what i did, if you like.
