Show up in local search

Google Business Profile setup.

When someone nearby searches for what you do, your business should be one of the results with the map pin, the reviews, and the phone number. That's a Google Business Profile, and it's free. We just make sure yours actually works.

Why it matters

Most local customers find you here first.

For a lot of small businesses, especially anything local, more people see the Google Business Profile than the actual website. It's the block of results with photos and stars that shows up before the regular search list. If you're not there, or you're there but the info is wrong, you're handing that traffic to a competitor.

The setup itself is not complicated. What most people get wrong is the categories, the service list, the description, and the verification step. Those are the details that decide whether Google shows you to someone two blocks away.

What's included

What the setup covers.

Profile creation or claim

We create the profile from scratch or claim an existing listing if one already exists and reset any wrong information.

Verification handled

Google verifies by postcard, phone, video, or email depending on the business. We walk you through whichever they ask for.

Category and service selection

Choosing the right primary and secondary categories has a bigger impact on ranking than most owners realize. We pick them based on how people actually search.

Photos and branding

Logo, cover, and interior or work photos formatted correctly. If you don't have great photos yet, we tell you what to shoot.

Business description

A written description that reads naturally, mentions what you actually do, and fits Google's guidelines so it doesn't get rejected.

Review link and basics

A short direct link customers can use to leave a review, plus a simple script for asking without being weird about it.

Why FlashPoint

Why not just do it yourself.

You can. Google's setup wizard technically walks you through the whole thing. The trouble is the wizard doesn't tell you which categories rank, which fields matter, or what to do when verification silently fails.

We've set these up enough times that we know where owners get stuck. We handle it in a single sitting, verify it works, and pair it with your website so both point at each other correctly.

  • One time flat fee
  • Handled end to end, including verification
  • Correct category and service setup
  • Website and profile properly linked
  • Review link included
  • Optional ongoing management
