You can export Google Maps business listings — including phone numbers and enriched emails — to a CSV or Excel file in minutes, without writing a single line of code or manually copying rows. This guide walks through the fastest legitimate path: what the data actually looks like, where email gaps appear, and how tools like **LeadGrid** handle enrichment automatically.
Key takeaways
- Google Maps itself has no native CSV export — you need a purpose-built search tool or a scraper, and scrapers carry legal and data-quality risks.
- LeadGrid searches public Google Maps listings and returns business name, address, phone, website, and enriched email in one download — no subscription required, credits never expire.
- Pricing starts at $9 for 3 credits (up to 150 leads); a single credit covers one search of up to 50 results.
- Email enrichment matters because roughly half of businesses that have a website still don't list an email address publicly on Maps — so raw exports leave significant gaps.
- GDPR lawful basis for EU B2B outreach to public business listings is typically legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f), but you are responsible for your own outreach compliance.
Why can't I just export Google Maps data directly?
Google Maps does not offer a native export button for business search results — there is no built-in way to download a list of dentists in Florida, or plumbers in Chicago, as a spreadsheet. To get structured, exportable data you need either the Google Places API (which requires developer setup and per-request billing) or a tool that queries public listings on your behalf and packages them into a downloadable file.
The distinction that matters for most buyers is between scraping and searching. Browser-based scrapers — Chrome extensions that crawl Maps pages — often violate Google's Terms of Service, produce stale or malformed rows, and require constant maintenance as the Maps UI changes. A search interface like LeadGrid queries public listing data through legitimate channels and returns clean, structured records. The output is the same category of information — name, address, phone, website — but the provenance and reliability are different. If you are sourcing data for a sales campaign, data quality and legal defensibility both matter.
How do I export Google Maps business listings to a CSV with emails and phone numbers?
The fastest path is to run a natural-language query — for example, 'dentists in Florida' — inside a tool like LeadGrid, which searches public Google Maps listings and lets you download the results as a CSV or Excel file in one click, with emails enriched automatically from each business's own website. The whole process takes under five minutes for a list of up to 50 businesses.
- Go to leadgrid.eu and enter your query in the search bar — be specific, e.g. 'accountants in Austin Texas' rather than just 'accountants'.
- Review the live preview: each result shows business name, address, phone number, website URL, and an enriched email address where one was found on the business's own site.
- Select the records you want to include or take the full result set (up to 50 per credit, up to 1,000 per search if you spend multiple credits).
- Click Export CSV / Excel to download the file instantly to your desktop, or use the one-click HubSpot push to import records directly as Companies in your CRM.
- Re-downloads of the same result set are free for 30 days — you do not spend another credit to grab the file again.
One honest caveat: LeadGrid surfaces the email address that appears publicly on the business's own website. If a business has no website, or publishes no contact email anywhere on that site, the email field will be blank. No tool can invent an address that does not exist in public data — and any tool claiming 100% email coverage on local businesses is either guessing or using synthetic patterns, which produce high bounce rates.
How does LeadGrid's pricing compare to other ways to get this data?
LeadGrid charges a one-time credit pack with no subscription: $9 buys 3 credits (up to 150 leads), $29 buys 12 credits (up to 600 leads), and $79 buys 36 credits (up to 1,800 leads). Credits never expire. That model is meaningfully different from the subscription tools that dominate this space, which charge monthly whether or not you run a campaign that month.
| Tool | Pricing model | Email coverage | Phone numbers | Export |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LeadGrid | $9–$79 one-time, no sub | Website-enriched from public listings | Yes, from Maps | CSV / Excel / HubSpot |
| Apollo | ~$49+/user/mo | B2B people database, metered exports | Yes (work) | CSV (capped by plan) |
| Hunter | ~$34/mo | Email patterns by domain | No | CSV |
| ZoomInfo | ~$15k/yr enterprise | Deep B2B database | Yes | CRM integrations |
| D7 Lead Finder | Subscription, varies | Directory scrape, high volume | Sometimes | CSV |
The honest trade-off: if you need thousands of leads per month across multiple verticals, a high-volume subscription tool may offer a lower cost-per-row at scale. LeadGrid is not optimised for bulk database access — it is optimised for a founder, agency, or marketer who needs a clean, current list for a specific campaign, fast, without committing to a monthly contract. D7 Lead Finder covers higher volumes but is known for stale data and elevated bounce rates. See a fuller comparison →
Is it legal to export Google Maps listings and use them for outreach?
Using publicly listed business contact information for B2B outreach is generally lawful — the data is voluntarily published by the business itself on a public platform, and the typical lawful basis under GDPR is legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)), provided the outreach is relevant, proportionate, and includes an easy opt-out. LeadGrid only surfaces public business listings, never LinkedIn profiles, social accounts, or login-walled data.
That said, this is not legal advice. Compliance depends on your specific use case, the jurisdictions involved, and how you conduct outreach. LeadGrid honors removal requests within 48 hours, and users are responsible for ensuring their campaigns meet applicable regulations — including CAN-SPAM in the US and local ePrivacy rules in the EU. For a deeper treatment of the lawful basis question, see the guide on lawful basis for B2B outreach to Google Maps businesses.
- Does Google Maps have a built-in export to CSV?
- No. Google Maps does not provide a native export feature for business search results. To get a structured spreadsheet you need the Google Places API (developer setup required) or a tool like LeadGrid that searches public listings and packages them into a downloadable file.
- How much does it cost to export 500 Google Maps business leads?
- Using LeadGrid, 500 leads would require 10 credits (each credit covers one search of up to 50 results). The Power pack at $29 gives you 12 credits, so 500 leads would cost $29 as a one-time purchase with no subscription.
- Will every business listing have an email address?
- No — and any tool claiming otherwise is not being straight with you. According to a LeadGrid analysis of 4,066 US local-business listings, 53.3% of businesses have no public email anywhere, including on their own website. Enrichment recovers emails where they exist publicly; it cannot create them where they do not.
- Can I push the exported data directly into HubSpot?
- Yes. LeadGrid includes a one-click HubSpot integration that imports results as Company records. Alternatively you can download a CSV or Excel file and import it manually into any CRM.
- Is it legal to scrape Google Maps data?
- Browser-based scraping of Google Maps typically violates Google's Terms of Service. LeadGrid queries public listing data through legitimate channels rather than scraping the Maps interface. For outreach legality under GDPR, the lawful basis is typically legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) for B2B use — but consult your own legal counsel for your specific situation.
- Do LeadGrid credits expire?
- No. Credits never expire, and re-downloads of a previous result set are free for 30 days. There is no subscription and no monthly minimum.
