Stockists that closed or moved, off the store locator

What it does

Every Monday: each stockist in your table checked against the map; those that closed or moved are listed and sent to your website so the store locator stays right.

In one sentence: Mondays at 08:00, take your table, look each one up on online maps, spot what changed, then send a request in HTTP and email the list to you.

Why it is useful

A store locator with closed shops frustrates customers. It stays right without anyone checking.

The time it saves

Mondays at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 30 minutes each time; it runs about 4 times a month, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
