Your Competitors Are Getting Calls You Should Be Getting

I work with local businesses every month who can’t figure out why they don’t show up in Maps. The answer is almost always the same: incomplete profile, wrong categories, zero reviews strategy, and NAP inconsistencies across 30+ directories. Google’s local algorithm rewards completeness and consistency. Most businesses deliver neither.

Invisible in Maps

Your profile exists but doesn’t rank in the local 3-pack. Competitors with worse service show up first because their profiles are optimized.

No review strategy

You have 8 reviews from 2019. Your competitor has 140+ with consistent recent activity. Google sees them as more relevant and trustworthy.

NAP inconsistencies

Your name, address, and phone number are different across Yelp, Yellow Pages, and your own website. Google doesn’t know which one to trust.

How I Work

01

Audit

I review your current GMB profile, local citations, review velocity, and competitor positioning. Most audits reveal 15-20 quick fixes.

02

Optimize

I rewrite your profile, fix categories, add attributes, and clean up NAP data across directories. This alone usually moves the needle within weeks.

03

Activate

I set up your review generation system, Google Posts schedule, and Q&A management process. Consistency is what keeps you in the 3-pack.

04

Track

I monitor Maps rankings, profile views, calls, and direction requests. You get a monthly report showing exactly what changed and why.

Results From Recent GMB Project

A plumbing company in a mid-size city had a GMB profile with 6 reviews and wrong business categories. They weren’t showing up in the local 3-pack for any of their 12 target keywords. After profile optimization, citation cleanup across 45 directories, and a review generation campaign, they hit the 3-pack for 9 out of 12 keywords in 8 weeks. Monthly calls from Google Maps went from 12 to 47. Reviews grew from 6 to 34 in 3 months.

FAQs

Have a question not listed here? Get in touch and I’ll respond within 24 hours.

How long before I rank in the local 3-pack?

It depends on your competition and current state. Simple fixes like category changes and NAP cleanup can show results in 2-3 weeks. Building review velocity and citation authority takes 2-3 months for most businesses. I’ve seen some move into the 3-pack in under 4 weeks.

Do you handle review responses?

I provide response templates and train your team on best practices. For the Growth Package, I write responses for the first month so your team sees exactly how it’s done. After that, you take over with the templates.

Can you help if I have a suspended GMB profile?

Yes. I’ve recovered over 20 suspended profiles. The process involves identifying the violation, filing the right reinstatement request, and sometimes going through Google’s support escalation. It typically takes 1-3 weeks depending on the suspension reason.
