Google Business Profile: free leads you're probably ignoring
Maps and reviews still drive high-intent local demand. Pair them with fast reply or you gift them to competitors.
Complete categories, services, photos, hours, and products. Inconsistent NAP confuses Google and customers.
Respond to every review. Ask happy customers systematically — not with spam.
Message and call buttons must land in a monitored channel with AI backup after hours.
Local SEO without speed-to-lead is a leaky bucket. Fix both.
