Q: Adding one more question to my previous one - Can I do reverse prospecting to scrape all information using ...
the phone number/email address or name of the person in a specific location?
Thanks again - I am checking your site, looks interesting.

You could attempt it though, google maps has a single search bar, we just combine 'keyword near location' from what you enter. But this could be anything. It looks like if you had the 'keyword' as a partial address, the 'location' as a phone number, and you use the 'Disable Near' option in the program the search would just be 'partial address phone number' in the search box. If google maps can match this to a listing they will show the listing and we can scrape it.
To do this at scale you would use the 'list' features of the program. So make a 'keyword' list that is all partial addresses one per line. Then a 'location' list that is all phone numbers one per line that match the keyword list. Line 1 to Line 1 and Line 5 to Line 5 etc. The program will then go though all of them and do what you are asking. But you will have a single cdv file for each scrape! Thankfully on the readme page I have a Combine CSV script you could use to combine all these separate csv's into one file.
