Save Google Maps Businesses to Google Sheets

Researching local businesses on Google Maps means clicking into listing after listing, trying to remember which ones had good reviews, what their hours were, and whether they’re in the right area.

With Add to Sheets, you can save Google Maps business info directly to Google Sheets as you browse. Build organized lists of leads, vendors, or places to visit.

Pro Tips for Google Maps + Google Sheets

Work Through Search Results Systematically

1. Search for a category on Google Maps (e.g., “plumbers near me”)
2. Open each result in a new tab
3. Use Quick Row Entry to fill in all fields for each business at once
4. Move through tabs quickly, building your list as you go

Save to Multiple Lists at Once

With Add to Sheets Pro, use groups to save to multiple sheets simultaneously. Add a business to both your master lead list and a category-specific sheet (e.g., “Wedding Vendors” and “All Contacts”) in one action.

Track Your Outreach

Add columns for outreach tracking:

• Date Contacted
• Method (phone, email, visit)
• Response
• Follow-up Date
• Status

Also Check Yelp

For more complete research, track the same businesses on Yelp too. Yelp often has different reviews and details. Use the same spreadsheet to compare across platforms.

Let AI Formulas Classify Businesses

Google Sheets’ built-in =AI() formula (a Google Workspace feature, not part of Add to Sheets) can automatically process business data you save. Add AI-powered columns next to your raw data:

Business	Description	Category	Service Area	Good Fit?
Smith & Co	Full-service plumbing and…	=AI(“business category?”, B2)	=AI(“residential, commercial, or both?”, B2)	=AI(“good fit for home renovation? yes/no”, B2)

Save raw business details with Add to Sheets, and AI columns classify, categorize, and evaluate automatically. See our full guide on using AI formulas with saved data.

Save Businesses Faster with Quick Row Entry

With Add to Sheets Pro, use Quick Row Entry to save complete business details in one step:

1. Open Quick Row Entry from the extension
2. A form appears with all your columns: Name, Phone, Email, Address, Rating, Notes
3. Fill in each field from the listing
4. Submit — entire row saved at once
5. Click the next business in the sidebar

This turns Google Maps research into a fast, structured workflow.

Automate Business Data Extraction

For large-scale local research, Automations can extract structured data from Google Maps listings with a single click. Build a visual workflow that pulls business name, address, phone, and rating automatically — no coding required.

Common Questions

Can I save all businesses from a search at once? Add to Sheets saves from pages you’re viewing. Click into each business listing to save its details. Use Find All Links on the search results to extract all listing URLs first.

Does it capture Google Maps reviews? You can select and save individual review text. For bulk review collection, you’d save reviews one at a time.

Does it work with Google Maps on mobile? No, Add to Sheets is a Chrome extension for desktop browsers.

Can I save the map location/coordinates? The Maps URL you save contains the location data. You can also select and save coordinates if they’re displayed on the page.
