What do I get in the free audit?

You get two full reports. First, a Local Audit Report that breaks down your trust score, review volume, response rate, Google rating, and how you stack up head-to-head against your closest competitor, including an AI visibility check showing whether you appear in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity results. Second, a Local Search Grid report that maps your ranking position across 91+ search locations in your service area, with a competitor analysis table showing who's capturing your traffic and their threat scores. Both reports pull live data in real time using AI and search APIs. No cost, no obligation.

Do I need to manage software or a platform?

No. This is fully done-for-you. We handle setup, configuration, monitoring, responses, and reporting. There's no dashboard for you to log into or learn.

How is this different from asking for reviews myself?

Most business owners ask inconsistently, if at all. We install a system that automatically prompts customers at the right time and responds to every review professionally. It runs whether you're busy or not.

Is there a long-term contract?

No. Month-to-month. Cancel anytime. We keep clients by delivering results, not locking them in.

How quickly will I see results?

Most clients see new reviews within the first two weeks. The compounding effect, where your profile starts to noticeably outpace competitors, typically shows up within 60 to 90 days.

What types of businesses do you work with?

We work with any local business where customers check Google before making a decision. That includes home service companies (HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical), medical practices, dental offices, restaurants, auto shops, salons, law firms, fitness studios, retail stores, and more. We serve businesses across the entire U.S.

How much does this cost?

The audit is completely free. If you decide you want us to manage your reputation going forward, we offer month-to-month plans. Pricing depends on your service area size and the number of locations. We walk through that after the audit, once we know exactly what your business needs. No surprises, no hard sell.

What happens when I get a negative review?

We respond to every review, including negative ones. A thoughtful, professional response to a 1-star review actually builds more trust than ignoring it. Studies show that 45% of consumers are more likely to visit a business that responds to negative reviews. We craft each response to acknowledge the concern, stay professional, and show future customers that you take feedback seriously. If a review violates Google's policies, we flag it for removal.

Do you guarantee results?

We don't make vague promises. What we can tell you is that every client who has stayed with us for 90 days or more has seen measurable growth in review volume, average rating, and local search visibility. The system works because it removes the guesswork and runs consistently whether you're busy or not. That said, we're month-to-month for a reason. If you're not seeing value, you can cancel anytime. We earn your business every month.

What happens if I do nothing?

Your competitors keep collecting reviews every week while your profile stays the same. The gap between you and the top-ranked businesses in your area gets wider every month. Customers searching for your service right now are comparing your 12 reviews to a competitor with 80+, and choosing them. Google rewards businesses with fresh, recent reviews, so the longer you wait, the harder it becomes to catch up. The audit is free because we want you to see the gap for yourself. Most business owners who see their report take action immediately.
