Your free Google listing is your best salesperson
For a local business, the Google Business Profile brings more calls than the website does. Most are half filled in. We build yours out completely and keep it active every week.

Six things wrong with most profiles
We audit dozens of these a year. The same six problems come up almost every time.
Wrong primary category
The single biggest ranking factor you control, and it is usually set to something too broad.
Services left empty
Every service you do not list is a search you cannot appear for. Most profiles list none.
Three blurry photos
Profiles with regular fresh photos get noticeably more calls and direction requests.
Reviews unanswered
Replies are a ranking signal and a trust signal. Silence on a bad review does real damage.
No posts, ever
A profile that has not been touched in a year looks like a business that may have closed.
Unclaimed or duplicated
Strangers can suggest edits to an unmanaged listing. Duplicates split your reviews and rankings.
Every field, filled in properly
Google gives you dozens of fields. Each one you complete is a reason for it to show you.
Fix once, then maintain
The build-out happens in the first month. After that it is upkeep, which is where most businesses stop and lose ground.
Audit
Every field checked against ranking competitors in your city.
Claim
Ownership secured, duplicates found and merged or removed.
Build out
Categories, services, description, photos and attributes completed.
Activate
Posts, Q&A and the review system switched on.
Maintain
Weekly posts, review replies and edit monitoring.
Report
Monthly insights and what we are changing next.
What decides the price
The profile itself is free from Google. What you pay for is the work and the upkeep.
Starting condition
A fresh listing is quicker than one that is suspended or duplicated.
Number of branches
Each location needs its own profile, photos and posting schedule.
Services to list
A clinic with forty treatments takes longer than a shop with four.
Photo shooting
If we visit to photograph the premises, that is quoted separately.
Posting frequency
Weekly posts versus twice a month changes the monthly workload.
Review volume
A profile receiving daily reviews needs daily replies.
Profile questions we get asked
The listing is free and always will be. What is not free is the time to research categories, write every service, shoot photos, post weekly, reply to reviews and watch for unauthorised edits. If you have someone in-house who will do that consistently, do it yourself — genuinely. Most businesses start well and stop by month two.
Often yes. Suspensions usually come from an address mismatch, a keyword-stuffed business name, or a service area set up incorrectly. We identify the cause, fix it, and file the reinstatement with documentation. It can take a few weeks and is never guaranteed — we tell you honestly what the chances look like first.
Yes, as a service area business — used by packers and movers, electricians, home tutors and similar. The address stays hidden and you define the areas you cover. It has to be configured exactly right, because a wrong setup here is one of the most common causes of suspension.
No. It works until a competitor reports you, and then the listing gets suspended or the name is reset — often losing your ranking history with it. We rank you using categories, services and content instead, which cannot be reported away.
A short link or QR code handed over at the right moment — right after the service, while the customer is still happy. We set the system up and train your staff on the one sentence to say. We never buy reviews; it risks everything you have built.
Always. Your Google account stays the owner and we work as a manager. If you stop working with us, you remove our access and nothing changes on the listing.
