Google Maps leads to CSV: local business emails and phones
Local business lead lists (plumbers in Denver, dentists in Austin) are the classic Google Maps export. Maps gives name, address, phone and website, but not the email, which is the field you need for outreach. This guide gets all of it into one CSV.
Steps
- Open Google Maps Leads on Apify.
- Enter a search: category
plumber, locationDenver, CO. SetmaxPlacesPerSearch(8 for a test). - Turn on
includeWebsiteContactsso it visits each business site for emails and phones. - Start the run, then export the dataset as CSV.
{"searches":[{"query":"plumber","location":"Denver, CO"}],"maxPlacesPerSearch":8,"includeWebsiteContacts":true}

Cost
$0.0015 per business plus $0.002 for each one where a contact is found. This 8-business run cost about $0.026; 100 businesses with 60 emails is roughly $0.27.
Good practice
- Sort by review count: large review counts are often franchises with a central inbox; the 100 to 500 range tends to reach owners.
- Run several nearby cities to get past the per-search cap.
- Deduplicate on
placeIdacross searches.
