Cold email is one of the highest-ROI outreach channels in India for B2B sales. A well-crafted email to 500 targeted prospects can generate 30–70 replies — and convert 5–15 into paying clients. The problem is always the same: where do you get the email list?
Buying email databases is expensive, often outdated, and shared across competitors. LinkedIn outreach is limited to 100 connection requests per week. But Google Maps has millions of Indian businesses listed — and most of them have websites with contact email addresses.
GrabNear's Deep Search extracts business listings from Google Maps and visits each website to find contact emails. You get a fresh, targeted, verified email list — for any city and industry in India — completely free.
Google Maps itself doesn't show email addresses — but most businesses list a website. GrabNear's Deep Search does two things:
The result: a complete lead record with business name, phone number, website, Google rating, address, and email — all in one Excel download.
Go to console.cloud.google.com → create a project → enable Places API, Maps JavaScript API, and Geocoding API → create an API key. Free.
Sign up at grabnear.com → go to Integrations → paste your API key and Save.
Click the Deep Search tab. Draw a shape on the map around your target area (city centre, IT park, industrial zone). Set grid density — more splits = more results. Hit Start Deep Search. GrabNear extracts listings and visits each website for email addresses.
Focus on businesses with websites (higher chance of having emails) and good ratings (more established, more likely to have budget). Filter your results in the Leads section before exporting.
Click Export to Excel. Import the email column into Mailchimp, Instantly.ai, or any cold email tool. Start your campaign with personalised subject lines that reference the business's city or category.

💡 Personalisation tip: GrabNear exports Google ratings. In your cold email, mention: "I noticed [Business Name] has 4.6 stars on Google with 150+ reviews — clearly your customers love you." This one line dramatically improves open and reply rates because it proves you researched them specifically.
