For businesses where customers find you by searching "dentist near me," "med spa in Winter Park," or "smoke shop Cypress." If you don't show in the map pack, you don't exist. We fix that.
Local SEO is the discipline of getting your business to appear in the Google Map Pack — the box of three business listings that appears above the organic search results whenever someone searches with local intent. Position 1 in the map pack captures roughly 44% of all clicks for that search. Position 4 captures under 3%. The difference between #3 and #4 is roughly 15x fewer leads.
For local service businesses — dentists, med spas, pool contractors, PIs, family lawyers, smoke shops — this is the single most important surface Google controls. It is not the same as ranking organically on page 1. A business can rank #1 organically and still not appear in the map pack because Google runs a separate ranking algorithm for the pack that weighs proximity, GBP completeness, review recency, category accuracy, and citation consistency far more heavily than backlinks or content depth.
Five steps from onboarding to first ranking win. Same for every client.

Local SEO retainers start at $800/mo for single-market clients (one location, low competition) and go up to $2,500/mo for multi-location or higher-competition markets. If you're a dentist in Wichita, you're on the low end. If you're a dentist in Miami competing against 300 practices, you're on the high end.
No setup fees. Month-to-month. Full 90-day guarantee for qualifying markets.
Depends on your competition and your current GBP health. In a low-competition market (small city, few competing businesses), we often see Map Pack top 3 in 60-90 days. In medium competition (suburban market with 20-40 competing businesses), 3-6 months. In high competition (major metro, 100+ competing businesses), 6-12 months with sustained citation building and review growth.
Yes, in most cases. Google requires a real physical address for Map Pack eligibility (they mail you a verification postcard). Service-area businesses can hide the street address but still need a valid physical location. Home-based businesses are supported if you meet with customers on-site or you hide the address and set service-area radius.
Good — that's a starting point, not the whole game. GBP is one of about 15 signals in the Map Pack algorithm. Even with a well-optimized GBP, if you're losing to competitors with better citation consistency, more recent reviews, or geo landing pages, you'll rank below them. On the qualifying call we'll show you where your GBP stops and where the competitive gap starts.
More than your competitors, refreshed more often than your competitors. Absolute count matters less than review velocity — Google favors businesses getting new reviews consistently over businesses that had 500 reviews five years ago and none since. Our review generation flow targets 5-10 new reviews per month for most local clients.
Yes. Every review response is part of the service — including negative ones. We respond in your voice within 24 hours, address the concern professionally, and where appropriate, escalate to Google for removal if the review violates their policies (fake, defamatory, wrong business). We can't make negative reviews disappear just because you don't like them, but we can minimize their damage and often turn them into trust signals.
