Automate Google Maps Email Scraping with n8n Workflow

Transform your lead generation strategy with this powerful n8n workflow that automatically scrapes business email addresses from Google Maps listings—completely free and without any third-party API dependencies. Perfect for sales professionals, marketers, and business development teams looking to build targeted prospect lists at scale.

What this workflow does

This comprehensive automation streamlines the entire Google Maps email scraping process using only n8n core nodes. The workflow takes your business search queries (combining target business types with specific regions) and systematically processes each one through a dedicated sub-workflow system. It scrapes Google Maps to collect relevant business listing URLs matching your criteria, then fetches and processes the HTML content from each collected URL to extract valuable contact information.

The workflow operates through intelligent query iteration, ensuring thorough coverage of your target market while maintaining efficient processing. Each search query triggers automated scraping tasks that gather business URLs, followed by detailed HTML content analysis to extract email addresses and other contact details.

Use cases

• Local business outreach: Target restaurants, retail stores, or service providers in specific geographic areas
• B2B lead generation: Build prospect lists for agencies, consultants, or professional services
• Market research: Gather contact information for competitors or potential partners in your industry
• Sales territory mapping: Create comprehensive contact databases for specific regions or cities
• Partnership development: Identify and contact complementary businesses for collaboration opportunities
