What does this Actor do?

This Actor extracts business leads from Google Maps, designed specifically for sales teams, telemarketing agencies, and lead generation specialists. Unlike general-purpose Google Maps scrapers with 70+ output fields and complex configuration, this Actor:

• ✅ Guarantees email on every lead — output only contains email-verified leads
• ✅ 1 required input field — type a search keyword and hit Start
• ✅ Built-in email and social media extraction — no separate actor needed
• ✅ Only active businesses — closed businesses are automatically removed
• ✅ Success-based pricing — no email found? No charge

🛡️ Sales-Ready Quality Guarantee

Every lead in your output has passed 6 automatic quality checks — no configuration needed:

Quality Check	What it means for you
✅ Email verified	Every lead has a real email address extracted from the business website
✅ Closed businesses removed	No wasted calls to businesses that no longer exist
✅ Phone number required	Every lead has a working phone number
✅ Duplicates eliminated	No embarrassing double-calls to the same business
✅ Phone numbers formatted	Dial-ready format (e.g., "(312) 555-0123")
✅ Social media included	Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc. — free bonus data

Input parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
search	string	✅	—	Search keyword. Enter it just like you would in the Google Maps search bar. Examples: "dentists in Chicago", "restaurants Brooklyn", "plumbers Denver CO"
location	string	❌	—	Area to search. Dramatically improves results — see tip below.
maxResults	integer	❌	100	Target number of email-verified leads (up to 1,000). The Actor searches until this count is reached or all businesses in the area are exhausted. Without location, expect ~60–120 leads max due to Google Maps result limits.

💡 Pro tip: Use the location field for best results

Adding a location dramatically improves your lead discovery:

• ✅ Breaks the 120-lead limit — without location, Google Maps limits results to ~120 per search
• ✅ Higher email success rate — more businesses to scan means more emails found
• ✅ Reach your target count — larger search pool makes it easier to collect your requested number of leads

{
    "search": "hair salons",
    "location": "Los Angeles, CA",
    "maxResults": 500
}

Quick start example

{
    "search": "dentists in Chicago",
    "maxResults": 50
}

⚠️ Why did I get fewer leads than I requested?

The maxResults field sets a target, not a guarantee. The actual number depends on how many businesses exist in the area, how many have websites, and how many have discoverable email addresses. If you received significantly fewer leads than requested, try adding a location — this enables comprehensive area-wide search and typically yields 3-10x more results.

Output

Handling missing data

This Actor never outputs null values. When data is unavailable, a human-readable reason is displayed:

Placeholder	Meaning
"Not on Google Maps"	This information is not listed on the Google Maps business page
"Not on website"	The business has a website, but this information wasn't found on it
(empty)	Social media link not found on the business website

Note: The email field always contains a valid email address — every lead is guaranteed to have one.

Note on Apify Console display: Social media columns (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok) are displayed as clickable links in the Console's table view. When a social media link is not found, the cell is empty. In this case, the Console may display "Failed to construct 'URL': Invalid URL" — this is a normal display behavior and simply means no link was found for that business. The actual data (CSV/JSON/API) correctly contains an empty value.

⏱ Processing Time & Background Execution

Leads Requested	Typical Time	What Happens
100	5-15 min	Quick batch — results while you grab coffee ☕
500	30-90 min	Medium batch — start it and move on to other tasks
1,000	1-4 hours	Large batch — runs in background, come back later

💡 You don't need to keep the browser open

Your Actor runs in the cloud — close the tab, shut down your computer, and come back later to download your leads. The extraction continues in the background.

Real-time progress is shown on the run page:

🔍 Searching: 150 businesses checked | 45/100 email leads found
📧 Extracting: 78/100 email leads found (78%)
✅ Done! 100 email-verified leads ready for download. Cost: $0.80

If fewer leads are found than requested, you'll see a helpful tip:

✅ Done! 72/200 email-verified leads found (all available businesses in the area have been searched). Cost: $0.58
💡 Tip: Set the "Location" field (e.g., "Chicago, IL") to search a wider area — this typically yields 3-10x more leads.

You can also set up Webhook notifications (email or Slack) to be notified when extraction is complete.

Limitations

• maxResults is a target, not a guarantee. The actual number of leads depends on how many businesses exist in the search area, how many have websites, and how many have discoverable emails. Without location, Google Maps limits search results to ~120 businesses per query, which typically yields 60–120 email-verified leads after filtering. Set the location field to significantly increase your lead count.
• Optimized for English-language markets. Google Maps data (name, phone, address, rating, etc.) works in all languages. However, email and social media extraction is optimized for English-language business websites. Non-English sites may have lower email discovery rates. Multi-language support is planned for a future update.
• Email extraction requires visiting each business website, which increases run time. See the processing time table above.
• Some websites may block automated access, resulting in no email being extracted for that business (you won't be charged).
• The Actor may occasionally be rate-limited by Google during high-volume extractions.
