Ever feel like your business should be easier to find on Google?

You’re not imagining it - most local businesses already have a Google Business Profile, but it’s quietly sitting there, half-filled and hidden. That means people searching for your exact services might be finding your competitors instead.

The good news? You don’t need to spend hours posting on social media to fix it.
A few intentional updates to your Google Business Profile can make a big difference in how often you show up in Maps and local searches.
