Issue #99: 82% of Customers Call a Map Result. Are You One of Them?

If you’re not showing up in the top 3 on Google Maps, you’re probably missing out on a lot of calls.

82% of customers choose from the top 3 businesses that pop up on the map.

Here are 3 moves to help you climb up those rankings:

1. Get More Reviews (The Right Way)
Encourage real customers to leave reviews—mentioning the service and your city helps even more than stars alone.

2. Keep Your Google Business Profile Updated
Ensure your categories, hours, service areas, and photos are fresh. Google likes active, well-maintained listings.

3. Fix Inconsistent Listings
Google checks if your name, address, and phone number are consistent across the internet. If they’re off—even slightly—it can tank your visibility.
