detail.loadingPreview
Automate the discovery and detailed profiling of potential business leads from Google Maps. This workflow uses scheduled queries, advanced web scraping, and AI analysis to generate comprehensive business profiles, perfect for sales, marketing, and business development teams.
About This Workflow
Unleash the power of AI to transform your lead generation process. This sophisticated n8n workflow intelligently searches Google Maps based on your predefined queries, extracts relevant business websites, and then leverages a powerful AI agent to meticulously analyze each site. The AI acts as an expert business analyst, generating rich, structured JSON profiles detailing services, strengths, tech stack, and potential pain points, along with tailored insights for outreach. Designed for scalability and compliance, it incorporates scheduled execution, batch processing, and strategic delays to handle large volumes of data efficiently, providing your team with actionable, pre-qualified leads.
Key Features
- Automated Google Maps Search: Periodically searches Google Maps for businesses based on a dynamic list of queries sourced from Google Sheets.
- Intelligent URL Extraction & Filtering: Extracts and cleans relevant business URLs from search results, meticulously removing irrelevant domains and duplicates.
- AI-Powered Business Profiling: Utilizes a custom AI agent (powered by Gemini via OpenRouter) to analyze website content and generate detailed JSON profiles, including contact info, services, tech, and strategic insights.
- Scalable & Rate-Limit Aware: Implements batch processing, asynchronous sub-workflow execution, and timed waits to handle large-scale data collection efficiently while respecting service limitations.
- Structured Output for Outreach: Provides comprehensive, actionable data points (e.g., website_url, email, ai_description_detailed) for sales, marketing, and partnership teams.
How To Use
- Configure Google Sheet: Create a Google Sheet with a column named "query" (e.g., "AI consulting firms London", "local cafes Brooklyn") and an optional "processed" column. The workflow will read unprocessed queries.
- Connect Google Sheets: Authenticate your Google Sheets node (
Get row(s) in sheet) to securely access your lead query spreadsheet. - Set AI Credentials: Provide your OpenRouter API key in the
OpenRouter Chat Modelnode's credentials to enable the AI analysis. - Review AI Agent Prompt: Customize the
AI Agentsystem message to refine the analysis criteria and the desired output structure (the fields in the JSON object) for your specific business intelligence needs. - Activate Workflow: Enable the workflow. It will automatically start searching Google Maps, scraping identified business websites (ensure a preceding web scraping node is configured to feed website content into the
AI Agent's prompt variable, if not already), and enriching business data using AI.
