Google Business Profile setup and management

Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing a customer sees, before your website. We set it up completely, keep it active and help you collect reviews, so you show up on Maps and in Google's AI answers.

Why it matters

Your profile does more work than your homepage

When someone searches for a service near them, Google shows the Map Pack first: three businesses with stars, hours and a call button. Those listings come from Google Business Profiles.

Google's AI Overviews and other AI tools also read your profile when they answer questions about local businesses. An incomplete or outdated profile costs you in both places.

Common problems we fix

What we usually find

  • Wrong or missing primary category

Questions

Google Business Profile questions

What does Google Business Profile management cost?

It's included in all Local SEO plans, which start at $500/mo. If you only need a one-time setup, we'll quote it after a quick look at your current profile.

I work from home. Can I still have a profile?

Yes. Service-area businesses can hide their address and show the towns they serve instead.

Can you remove bad reviews?

Only Google can remove reviews, and only ones that break its rules. We can flag those and help you write calm, professional replies to the rest.

Who will I actually work with?

Ehren Beckwith, the owner of EffectMedia. You talk to the person doing the work, not an account manager.
