Google Map Pack & Business Profile

Get into the top three on Google Maps, where local customers actually choose

When someone nearby searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses on the map. I help make sure yours is one of them.

The problem

Most calls go to the three businesses on the map

If your Google Business Profile is incomplete, in the wrong category or short on reviews, you’re invisible at the exact moment a local customer is ready to pick up the phone. The good news is that most of what holds a profile back can be fixed.

What’s included

A full Google Business Profile tune-up, then ongoing work

Everything Google looks at when deciding who to show in the Map Pack.

Categories & services

Primary and secondary categories, services and products set up to match what people actually search for.

Reviews

A simple system to ask happy customers for reviews and reply to every one, good or bad.

Photos & posts

Regular, genuine updates that show Google and customers you're active and local.

Proximity & service area

Service areas and location signals set up correctly for the towns you cover.

Ranking grid scans

Before and after map scans so you can see exactly where you rank, street by street.

Spam & competitor checks

Spotting fake or rule-breaking listings that are pushing you down, and reporting them.

Common questions

Map Pack questions, answered plainly

It depends on your competition, your location and the state of your profile. Some businesses see movement within weeks; competitive trades in busy towns usually take a few months of steady work.

No honest agency can, because Google decides the rankings. What I can promise is clear work on everything Google measures, and monthly reports so you can see the progress for yourself.

No. Service-area businesses that visit customers can rank too, as long as the profile is set up correctly.
