There are three primary ways that your local customers will find a business when they're ready to shop: Google, Apple, and Facebook. We curate your presence on each of these essential platforms to make sure your business is on every important digital map.
Accurate location data is essential for local listings management. Not only do you want people to become aware of your business, you also want them to be able to find you. We will make sure every local listing has your entire set of location data, optimize your data for accuracy and performance, and manage that data to ensure every platform is updated and accurate.
With over 3000 business categories to choose from for your Google Business Profile, category selection can be challenging when you are unversed with the possibilities. Specificity matters! Category development allows us to hone our marketing efforts based on the behaviors of your growing audience and the offerings at your individual businesses, to choose the best categories for your locations. This helps your business locations be more competitive in rankings.
Local listings management involves a wide selection of platforms and listings, and all must be kept up-to-date and accurate. We handle the data updates and distribution any time your listings, promotions, or details need to change – even by individual location.
If you have several business locations, we can handle bulk profile accounts when working with your Google Business Profile. This will ensure your brand remains consistent in your listings from one location to the next.
On Facebook, establishing a connection between your brand’s local business profiles and the brand’s corporate profile is an important step to managing location listings on the platform. We help your business properly configure Facebook profiles, to guarantee brand consistency and for more efficient profile management.
