Building a tool for local businesses — how do I find my first 100 beta users?

I've been building a SaaS tool that helps local businesses (restaurants, salons, clinics) get more Google reviews automatically.

The core flow: customer scans QR → AI helps write a review → they post to Google in 30 seconds. No manual work for the owner.

I'm now at the stage where I want to build a waitlist of actual local business owners before I go fully public.

My problem: I'm an introvert, can't do cold calls, can't visit stores physically,and I'm trying to reach businesses globally (not just my city).

Has anyone successfully built a waitlist for a B2B tool targeting local businesses?

What actually worked for you?

Would genuinely appreciate any advice from people who've been through this.
