    Your profile is visible, but small improvements could help more customers choose you.

    WHAT CUSTOMERS NOTICE

    Small gaps can cost you big opportunities.

    We fix the details that help your business look credible, current and easy to choose.

    01

    No recent photos?

    Customers make a decision in seconds. Show them a business that is open, active and worth choosing.

    Regular geotagged visual updates & monthly asset checklist.
    02

    No recent updates?

    Fresh posts signal that your business is active — to Google and to the people searching.

    Weekly Google Business posts, offers & seasonal promotions.
    03

    Unanswered reviews?

    A thoughtful reply builds more trust than a perfect rating with no conversation behind it.

    Prompt review oversight, sentiment tracking & response management.
    04

    Incomplete profile setup?

    Missing categories, sub-categories and basic details leave buyers guessing — and send them to a competitor who looks complete.

    Full basic profile setup: categories, sub-categories & service areas.
    05

    Products & services missing?

    If your offerings aren't listed and optimized with the right keywords, you won't show up when customers are ready to buy.

    Products & services added and keyword-optimized for search.
    06

    Is your pin where you really are?

    A misplaced map pin sends customers to the wrong street — or straight to a competitor. Accurate location means accurate directions and real foot traffic.

    Precise map coordinate pinning & service area boundary setup.

    Stop letting local customers slip to competitors.

    Our setup and monthly maintenance keeps you locked in Google's top 3 map pack and visible to AI search engines.

    QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

    Good to know.

    No jargon. No long-term lock-in. Just a clearer way to get found.

    Yes, completely seamless. Businesses typically start on Essentials ($30/mo) and upgrade to Pro Growth ($41/mo) or Market Leader ($51/mo) directly as incoming call and map inquiry volume increases.

    8 out of 10 customers search for local services on Google, Maps, or their favorite AI model (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude). If your profile is dormant, incorrectly pinned, or missing keywords, search algorithms route high-value buyers straight to your competitors.

    Zero contracts. Every plan is month-to-month. Cancel anytime with zero penalties or fine print.

    Plans start at $30/mo for Essentials, $41/mo for Pro Growth, and $51/mo for Market Leader. There is a once-off setup fee for the initial audit and profile build, quoted upfront before any work begins.

    Most clients see improved profile completeness and map accuracy within the first 1–2 weeks. Meaningful ranking and inquiry lifts typically build over 60–90 days as the ongoing optimisation and posting cadence take effect.

    Access to your Google Business Profile via a Google Manager-level invite (we never ask for your password), your CIPC registration details for verification, a few recent photos, and a short call to understand your services and target areas.

    Always. You remain the primary owner. We are added as a manager so we can optimise on your behalf. If you ever leave, you remove our access in one click and keep everything we built.

    We monitor your reviews, flag the ones needing a response, and provide reply templates (or draft replies for your approval). On Pro Growth and Market Leader we actively manage responses and track review velocity against competitors.

    We operate across South Africa with active territories in Pretoria, Johannesburg, Cape Town, and the Garden Route, and we are expanding nationwide. If you are outside these areas, ask us — we likely have a rep or territory opening near you.

    It is our monthly in-person visit program. A dedicated local Area Representative physically visits your business each month to capture fresh photos, review growth, handle updates, and keep your profile accurate and active. It is included in every plan.

    Yes. Beyond Google Business Profile management we offer website design, e-commerce setup, and social media marketing as add-on services. Tell us what you need and we will quote it alongside your plan.

    Send us a WhatsApp or email and we stop your next billing cycle. No notice periods, no cancellation fees. You keep full ownership and access to your profile.
