Top 3 on the map. Money in the door. Or every penny back.
Who you're hiring
I'm the hacker and the lawyer.
Not an account manager fronting a team of juniors. The same person who takes your competitors apart is the one who gets the cheaters pulled off the map.
The hacker
I take the map pack apart.
I scan a grid of real search points across your service area and read the pack at every one, so I know your rank street by street instead of what you see from your own desk. Then I rebuild your profile, your site and your citations to outscore whoever is beating you.
Geo-grid rank scans, not one vanity search
Competitor teardown: what they have that you don't
Re-scanned weekly, so I catch a slip before you feel it
The lawyer
I get the cheaters removed.
Half the listings above you are not playing straight, and Google has a process for exactly that which almost nobody bothers to use. I document the violations, file them properly, and push until they are acted on. Every listing that comes down is a spot you move up without outspending anyone.
