What I was looking for is a service that would be able to screen companies by geography and EBITDA. In addition, (and I know it is not Christmas), I was hoping the service would send out automated emails to the CEO for outreach. The intention would be to screen widely and then focus on the CEOs that respond. I would be looking for founder led businesses that are retiring.

The databases that Daniel had mentioned are great. In our experience, the revenue, earnings, hyper-local geography for some business-types and employee counts tend to be inaccurate. So, err on the side of a wider net with search parameters if you want full coverage in a particular area.

Hi Daniel, InfoUSA, ZoomInfo and Naics Association are few of the many companies that sell you businesses lists and you have multiple ways of screening including geography. As far as I know they don't have EBITDA and you should target some range of revenue.
