Case Studies

Real businesses. Real map positions.

These are real local search campaigns that moved home service and professional service businesses into the top of the Google map pack, in the neighborhoods where their customers actually search. Every figure on this page is measured from live profiles and tracked calls, not modeled or projected.

Before and after local search grids: a red map grid ranking 8th and lower becomes a green grid ranking in the top three, with calls per week rising from 23 to 71 in three weeks
25+ Local search campaigns run and measured to date.

Featured campaigns

Ten recent maps, before and after.

Each block below is one business, one service area, and a mapped grid of 25 points tracked from month zero. The scan on the left is where they started; the scan on the right is what we recorded. The gradient number is the headline volume metric, and the green figures are how far into the top of the pack the map moved.

How we get these results

One repeatable local search method, run in full every time.

Before any of this runs, we diagnose. The $1,000 diagnostic tells us whether local search is actually where your revenue is leaking, so we prescribe the map work only when it is the right fix. When it is, the method below is what turns a red grid green, and it is the same sequence behind every result on this page.

01

Google Business Profile rebuild

We rebuild the profile the way Google actually reads it: correct primary and secondary categories, complete services, real geotagged job photos, and posts that keep the listing active instead of stale.

02

A geotagged map grid

We map 25 points across your service area and track your position at each one, so ranking is a grid we can watch move rather than a single number that hides where you are still invisible.

03

Citation and NAP cleanup

Name, address and phone are made identical everywhere they appear online. Conflicting listings and old addresses are the quiet reason many strong businesses never break into the pack.

04

Review velocity

We build a steady, compliant flow of new reviews from real customers, because recent and consistent beats a large but frozen count, and it is one of the signals the map weighs most.

05

Call and lead tracking

Every call and inquiry is tracked so the before and after numbers on this page are measured, not estimated. You see exactly which of the new work the map is sending you.

Your market next

Find out where you rank right now.

Book a discovery call. The $1,000 diagnostic maps your current grid across your service area and tells you plainly whether local search is your fastest path to more booked work, credited in full to month one of any program.
