Case Studies

A look at how this work plays out in practice.

The examples below describe typical patterns we encounter across plumbing, dental and landscaping businesses. Details are illustrative and generalized, not tied to a single named client, and no specific performance figures are implied.

Plumbing

Multi-town service areas and duplicate directory listings.

Dental

New patient discovery and review response habits.

Landscaping

Seasonal listings and coverage area clarity.

HVAC

Emergency call routing and profile category accuracy.

A four-location plumbing company with one shared profile

A regional plumbing business had grown from a single shop to four service areas, but was still operating with just one Google Business Profile and a website with a single generic "service areas" page. Customers searching from the newer locations often found competitors with dedicated local listings instead.

The work involved separating out distinct profiles for each verified service address, correcting a handful of directories that still listed an old phone number, and building individual location pages describing the specific neighborhoods each branch covered. Call tracking numbers were assigned per location so inquiries could be attributed to the right listing rather than lumped together.

A dental practice with satisfied patients and few reviews

Patients at this practice were consistently happy, but almost none had left a review anywhere online, and the few that existed were several years old. The front desk team had never been given a simple, compliant way to ask.

We built a short, repeatable script for the front desk to use after a positive appointment, pointed directly at the practice's Google Business Profile, along with guidance on how to respond to any negative feedback that arrived. No incentives or selective filtering were used, in line with review platform policy.

A landscaping crew whose website only mentioned one town

This landscaping business actively served five surrounding towns, but its website and directory listings only referenced its original home base. Anyone searching from a neighboring town rarely saw the business appear at all.

Working through each town individually, we built out location-specific pages describing relevant services, seasonal offerings and travel radius, corrected citations across gardening and home service directories, and adjusted the Google Business Profile's service area settings to reflect where the crew genuinely operated.

Emergency repair calls were coming in steadily, but the office had no way to tell whether they originated from the Business Profile, a location page, or a paid campaign run by a separate agency.

What Changed

Dedicated tracking numbers were set up for the Business Profile, each location page and the main site, forwarding to the same dispatch line without disrupting existing operations.

Why It Mattered

The office could finally see which listings were producing organic call volume, which helped decide where continued citation and profile work made the most sense.

Wondering how this might apply to your business?

Every business's directory footprint and review history looks a little different. A discovery call is the easiest way to talk through yours.
