Google listing
When someone nearby searches for what you do, Google shows a short list of businesses. If yours looks unfinished, they tap the next one. Google calls it your Business Profile; we call it your Google listing.
Example Google listing score: 72 out of 100.
When you are in range, we make sure you are the one they pick.
Google shows people the businesses closest to them first. We make your listing complete, accurate and trusted, so when they are looking, yours is the listing worth choosing.

On a phone, from what your listing shows them.
What we look after
We look after them, so you can get on with the business.
Google can match you to searches for what you do. People see straight away whether you are open.
Your own photos, chosen and ordered, so you look as established as you are. Never stock images.
A simple, fair way to ask every customer for honest feedback. A reply to every review that comes in.
Your name, address, phone and services say the same thing everywhere, so nobody is confused.
Anyone can suggest edits to a listing. We check for changes you did not make.
Each month we send you Google's own counts of calls, direction requests and website clicks, on WhatsApp.

Google listing score
Without the right category, Google may not show you when people search for your type of business.
Customers who can't see your hours often phone someone who shows they're open.
Listings with few photos can look less established next to ones with many.
People who find you have somewhere to see your work before they decide.
Unanswered reviews may tell new customers no one is listening.
This is an example. It scores how complete and competitive a listing looks. It does not measure where the listing appears on Google.

Questions
It is the box that shows your business on Google Search and Maps. If your customers search on Google for what you do, it is often the first thing they see.
No one can honestly promise a position. Google shows people the businesses closest to them first, and nobody can change that. We set your listing up properly, keep it accurate and help you collect genuine reviews, so that when you are in range, your listing is the one worth picking.
Care has a three-month minimum. At month three we compare your numbers with the ones we recorded at setup. If they have not moved, you can leave without paying further and without a notice period.
The listing itself is free. Our guide shows how to set one up yourself. What Setup pays for is the work: checking who controls your listing, getting it verified and choosing the right categories. We also set up your services, hours and real photos and give you a fair way to ask for reviews, all for R1,500 once-off.
The requests come from you, and we make that easy. We write the message and make you a review link and QR code, so asking takes seconds. You send one friendly request to every customer from your own WhatsApp or email. A request from you feels personal to your customers, and your customer list stays with you.
