What we look at

The four things we check

This is the same audit we run before we put together a quote. The report is yours whether or not you hire us.

01

Your website

How fast it loads on a phone, what a visitor sees before scrolling, whether the forms reach you, and whether Google can read the pages. We look at the phone version first, since that is how many of your customers will see it.

02

Your Google Business Profile

We review your categories, service area, services list, photos and posts. For many home service businesses, this is where the quickest improvements are. A lot of listings were set up years ago and haven't been updated since, because the owner was busy running the business. That's common, and it is usually one of the easier things to fix.

03

Your local rankings

We run the same search from dozens of points across your service area and map where you show up. Searching from your own address only shows part of the picture, because customers in other towns can see different results.

04

Your competitors

We look at the companies getting the calls you want, what they have that you don't, and which of those gaps is worth closing first. The biggest gap is often not the one the owner expects.

What you get back

You get it in writing

Sample audit page showing a 49 point Google Maps ranking grid, a comparison of the business's Google listing against the top three competitors, and a numbered list of fixes

A sample page from the report. The business and the numbers are made up for this example.

A written report you keep

You get a PDF you can read on your own time, forward to your partner, or share with whoever handles your marketing now. If you want to talk it through, we're happy to.

A ranked list of fixes

The fixes are listed in the order we would tackle them, with a short reason for each one. Some of them you may be able to handle yourself, and we point out which ones.

About two business days

Each audit is done by hand, which is why it takes about two business days to complete.

Your report by email

We email you the report. After that, it's up to you whether you want to talk about it.

Why it's free

Why the audit is free

The audit shows you what we would work on if you hired us. If you decide to do it yourself or go with someone else, you still know what to fix. We would rather show you the findings up front and let you decide from there.
