What happens in the first 30 days

No discovery phase that bills for a month. Work starts in week one and you see the crawl evidence for every claim.

  • Eligibility check and profile claim or creation, with duplicate listing cleanup
  • Primary and secondary categories chosen against what actually ranks in your local pack
  • Service and product entries written out in full, with pricing where it helps conversion
  • Service area or address configuration set correctly for your business model
  • Photo and logo set uploaded with correct naming and geo consistent metadata
  • Business description rewritten for buyers, with the terms people actually search
  • Review request flow built so asking becomes routine instead of awkward
  • Weekly post cadence started, plus question and answer seeding on your top objections

What you are actually buying

Weekly posts

Offers, updates, and service posts written in your voice, published on a schedule Google can see.

Review responses

Every review answered within two business days, including the negative ones, which are the ones buyers actually read.

Question seeding

The questions your buyers ask on the phone, asked and answered on the profile before a competitor answers for you.

Citation consistency

Name, address, and phone matched across the directories Google cross references, so nothing contradicts your profile.

Monthly insight report

Calls, direction requests, website clicks, and search terms, with the next month's plan named in plain language.

The honest limit: Local pack position depends on proximity, prominence, and relevance. We move prominence and relevance. We cannot move your physical address closer to the searcher. Verification is Google's process, not ours, and it can ask for a video call or a postcard and take several days. We prepare the evidence and walk you through it.

Creating the profile is free, so why pay for this?

The listing is free. The work around it is the part that ranks: choosing categories against the local pack rather than guessing, writing service entries, keeping a weekly post cadence for a year, answering reviews the same week, and keeping citations consistent when your phone number changes. Most owners do it for three weeks and then stop, and the profile decays back into a phone book entry.

We manage profiles the same way we manage sites: a named engineer, a weekly cadence, and a monthly report that says what happened and what is next.

Questions buyers actually ask

Is Google Business Profile management worth paying for?

It is worth it when local search drives calls for you and you are not going to keep a weekly cadence yourself. The profile is free to create. The ranking factors we can move, prominence and relevance, are built from consistent activity, complete data, and review velocity over months. If you will genuinely post weekly and answer every review, do it yourself.

How much does Google Business Profile management cost?

Setup is $299 one off and ongoing management is from $149 a month for a single location. Multi location brands are quoted per profile, with discounts as the count rises. There is no contract.

How long does Google Business Profile verification take?

Anywhere from a day to a few weeks. Google decides the method: video verification, postcard, phone, or email. Video verification is now the most common, and it usually needs you to show the premises, your equipment, and proof you manage the business. We prepare a checklist so you pass first time, but we cannot approve it on Google's behalf.

Can you fix a suspended Google Business Profile?

Often, yes. Suspensions usually trace to a mismatched address, a virtual office, keyword stuffing in the business name, or a category that does not match the verified activity. We diagnose the cause, correct it, and file the reinstatement request with the evidence Google asks for. We cannot guarantee reinstatement, and we will tell you upfront if the cause looks like a policy breach that will not be reversed.

Do posts on Google Business Profile actually affect ranking?

Posts are not a direct ranking factor Google publishes, but an active profile correlates with better local pack performance and measurably better conversion from the profile itself. Posts also occupy space that competitors are not using, and they surface in branded searches where the decision actually happens.

Should my service area business hide its address?

If you serve customers at their location and do not receive them at yours, yes, hide the address and set service areas. Showing a home address for a service area business risks a suspension and puts your home on Maps. We configure this properly during setup.

Can you manage profiles for multiple locations?

Yes. Multi location work runs through a single location group, with consistent categories and descriptions, per location posts, and one consolidated report. This is the setup where management pays for itself fastest, because manual cadence across ten profiles never survives a busy month.
