How to Efficiently Extract Business Email Addresses from Google Maps with Octopars
Searching for business contact information can be a time-consuming process, especially when you need to collect data at scale. The Google Maps Email Finder template in Octopars offers a streamlined solution for this challenge, allowing users to automatically extract email addresses from businesses listed on Google Maps.
Using the template is straightforward. First, open Octopars and locate the Google Maps Email Finder template in the left toolbar. Once opened, enter your desired search term in the template usage page – importantly, there’s no need to specify a location as part of your search term.
After entering your search criteria and the target address, name your task for easy reference later. The template currently only supports cloud collection, with no distinction between standard and boost modes since the template automatically splits and concurrently processes your keywords.
Before starting the collection process, you’ll need to select a payment model. For larger data needs (such as 100,000 results), a subscription plan may be more cost-effective than the pay-per-result option. Choose according to your specific requirements.
When you initiate the process, you’ll notice a “splitting” status displayed, indicating that the first template is running. This initial phase focuses on extracting website URLs from Google Maps listings. These URLs are then automatically passed to the Contact Detail Scraper template, which collects various contact information including email addresses.
The entire process runs in the cloud, meaning you can close the window without interrupting the data collection. You can easily check on progress later by accessing the cloud collection and task list section.
In the example demonstrated, the tool collected 1,511 results in approximately 1 hour and 27 minutes – an impressive efficiency for what would otherwise be manual work. It’s worth noting that not all business website homepages contain email addresses, which may affect your overall results.
This powerful tool simplifies the often tedious process of finding business email addresses, making it an excellent resource for lead generation, market research, and outreach campaigns.
