The top spot on Google, and you only pay when the phone rings.

Google Guaranteed and Google Screened badges are earned, not bought. Google verifies your business license, general liability insurance, and runs a background check on the owner and, for some trades, on field staff. The green checkmark that appears on the listing is the result of that review.

We manage the paperwork end to end. We tell you exactly which documents are needed for your trade and state, submit them in the format Google accepts, and chase the review when it stalls. Most businesses are live in one to three weeks depending on the background check.

Regular search ads charge every time someone clicks, whether they were a customer or a competitor checking prices. Local Services Ads charge when a customer contacts you through the listing. Google sets the price per contact by trade and market, and you set a weekly budget that caps total spend.

That changes the math. You are not paying for traffic and hoping some of it converts. Every dollar spent is tied to a conversation with someone who wanted your service in your area.

Google decides which three businesses to show using signals you control: how quickly you answer calls and messages, how many verified reviews you have, whether your hours are set accurately, and how close you are to the searcher. A bigger budget helps, but a business that ignores messages will sink no matter what it spends.

We watch these signals every week. We set up review requests through the Local Services dashboard, tighten service areas to the places you actually cover, and flag it the same day if missed calls start hurting the rank.

Not every contact is a customer. Solicitors, wrong numbers, and people outside your service area still trigger a charge. Google lets you dispute these within a window, and credits the ones that qualify.

We review every charge against the call recording or message and file disputes on your behalf. Owners who run the account themselves rarely have time for this, and it is often the difference between an account that pays for itself and one that quietly leaks money.
