Google Business Profile & reviews
Google Business Profile and Review Management
Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing a customer sees, before your website. We put it right with a one-time optimization, then keep it complete, active and answered as part of local SEO: weekly posts, fresh photos, accurate hours and services, and weekly review replies written in your voice, with anything below four stars sent to you before anything is posted.
- Profile setup and optimization, $300 one time
- Review management, in the local SEO plan
- Your job photos first
Highlights
Profile setup and optimization, $300 one time
A new profile set up, or an existing one audited and fixed: categories, services, hours, photos and description.
Review management, in the local SEO plan
Review monitoring and replies across Google and the other platforms that matter to you, included in the $500 a month plan.
Your job photos first
Your own job photos lead, never stock images.
The profile does the selling before the click
When someone searches for a service near them, Google shows a map with three businesses and their profiles. People compare star ratings, read a few reviews, look at the photos and tap call, often without ever opening a website. A profile with recent posts, real photos and answered reviews looks like a business that is open and paying attention.
An active, complete profile is also one of the strongest signals for ranking in that map pack, and it feeds your Google Local Services Ads, which rank partly on your rating, review count and response time.
Ongoing profile management, part of the local SEO plan, covers
- Weekly profile posts about your services, seasons and offers
- New photos from your own jobs, added regularly
- Accurate business categories, services, service area and hours
- Questions and answers kept current
- Profile edits watched, so outside changes to your listing get caught
- A monthly report of profile views, calls and direction requests
Review management, part of the local SEO plan, covers
- Monitoring for new reviews, so none sit unanswered
- Thoughtful replies written for you, thanking happy customers and responding calmly to complaints
- Review requests sent to your customers after the job, with a direct link to your Google profile
- Reviews that break Google's rules (spam, fake, competitor or off-topic) reported to Google through its process
- Tracking of review count, rating and reply time month to month
How we start
Profile audit
We check your profile against what customers and Google look for: categories, services, photos, hours, reviews and replies.
Fix and fill
We correct the basics, add missing services and photos, and write a stronger business description.
Weekly rhythm
On the local SEO plan, posts, photos and review replies go out every week, so the profile never goes quiet.
Monthly report
You see views, calls, direction requests and review growth in plain English.
More reviews come from asking every customer
The surest way to a strong rating is volume: ask every customer, at the moment the job is done, with one tap to your Google review form. A steady flow of honest reviews also cushions the occasional bad one. We set up review requests by text or email, written in your voice and sent right after the job, and we never offer customers a gift or discount for leaving a review, which Google does not allow.
Weekly review replies in your voice
Future customers read your replies as closely as the reviews. A warm thank-you on a five-star review and a calm, helpful answer on a complaint both show that a real person runs the business. We write the replies every week in your voice, and anything below four stars comes to you before anything is posted.
Part of local SEO, or on its own
Ongoing profile and review work are included in our $500 a month local SEO plan. If your profile only needs setting up or putting right once, Google Business Profile setup and optimization is $300 one time, whether we build the profile from scratch or fix an existing one.

FAQ
Straight answers
How much does Google Business Profile management cost?
Google Business Profile setup and optimization is $300 one time, whether we create the profile or fix an existing one. Ongoing profile management and review management are part of our $500 a month local SEO plan; neither is sold as a separate monthly fee.
Can you remove bad reviews?
No one can remove an honest review. We reply to it calmly for you, and we report reviews that break Google's rules, such as spam or fake reviews, through Google's own process. Google makes the final decision.
Can I give customers a discount for leaving a review?
No. Google does not allow rewards for reviews. We ask every customer for an honest review right after the job, which is the reliable way to grow your rating.
Do you use stock photos on my profile?
No. We use your own job photos, because customers and Google both trust real pictures of your work.
