Collect business phone numbers from Google Maps into Sheets

Enter a location and keyword, and the system pulls matching business listings and phone numbers into a spreadsheet.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Repeats waits then rechecks status.

Pattern: Structured Loop (21)

The problem it solves

You need a list of local businesses to call or prospect, but finding names, numbers, and details one by one on Google Maps takes forever. Copying each listing into a spreadsheet by hand is tedious and error prone.

Who it fits

Sales teams and agencies building prospect lists of local businesses.

How it works

  1. You submit a location and search keyword through a form
  2. The system requests matching business listings, including names, addresses, and phone numbers
  3. It checks until the results are ready
  4. The finished list of businesses is saved to your Google Sheet
What you get

Prospect lists you never had time for

You enter a location and keyword and get back a spreadsheet of matching local businesses with phone numbers.

What you get

A Google Sheets list of local businesses with contact and listing details.

What you need

A Bright Data account with API access and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
