Why this helps
Email research gets postponed when each contact has to be looked up individually and logged by hand.
- Handle supplied contacts as a reviewable batch
- Keep returned lookup results in one document
- Reduce repetitive research steps

- 3Tell Notis to look up verified emails with Bettercontact for each contact in the supplied batch and save returned results in Drive.

- 5Test with one real batch of contacts.
