How the 6 EL Lead Engine works
- 1
Search the real market
6 EL pulls live business listings around Tampa — not a static database — so you see businesses that exist today, with their current ratings, review counts and websites.
- 2
Score the opportunity
Each business gets an opportunity score from signals a photographer can verify: review volume and rating, whether the listing has a website, how recently it appears to have been updated, and the category's typical photography spend.
- 3
Show you why
Every score comes with its reasons. You can see what pushed a business up or down before you spend a minute on it, and ignore the ones that do not fit how you work.
- 4
Draft the outreach
The AI Studio Manager writes a first message referencing what it actually found about that business. You edit it, then copy it or send it from your own Gmail or Outlook account.
6 EL does not sell contact lists and does not promise that any business is looking for a photographer. It narrows a real market down to the businesses most likely to benefit from better imagery, and tells you why.

What radius should I search around Tampa?
