Show up when your neighbours search - and turn happy visits into reviews
When someone nearby searches for what you do, you want to be one of the few they see - with the reviews to make the choice obvious. That's local search, and it's far more winnable than the "rank #1 on Google" game you've been sold before.
There are two Googles. One of them is winnable.
Knowing the difference is most of the battle - and it's why I'll never promise you a magic ranking.
Local search - the map results
The handful of businesses on the map when someone searches "barber near me" or "café in your town".
What your customers actually use - driven by things we can genuinely move:
This is what I do
National organic - competitive keywords
Ranking a website #1 for broad, nationwide terms.
Where agencies over-promise and clients get burned - usually the wrong fight for a local shop.
Not what you need
Start with the foundation. Grow from there.
Fix it once, then keep it climbing month to month. Prices are honest starting points - I confirm the exact figure in a quick chat, never before.
Hub
The things every local business gets wrong once and never fixes. A low-commitment way to start.
- Google Business Profile claimed and properly tuned - categories, services, hours, photos
- Name, address & phone made consistent across the directories that matter
- Local schema, titles and fast mobile pages on your site
- A location page built around your town and trade
- A plain baseline report: where you rank now, review count, a look at nearby rivals
Grow
Everything ongoing that actually moves the local map results - and where Coco Card becomes an unfair advantage.
- Review automation wired into Coco Card - customers asked at the right moment
- A private feedback channel offered alongside, so you hear grumbles early and can fix them
- Review monitoring and replies drafted for you
- A couple of Google posts a month to keep the profile active
- Steady citation building and a simple monthly report you'll actually read
Complete
For busier areas where you want to pull ahead. Everything in Growth, plus more reach.
- Local content - neighbourhood and service pages for more searches
- More than one location managed under one roof
- Light outreach for mentions and links from local sites
- A closer read on what nearby competitors are doing
Same as the domain and hosting on your build - and it all folds into a Hub, Grow or Complete plan if you'd rather have one bill.
Coco Card is a review machine
This is the part almost nobody else can offer. Because Coco Card is part of the same package, the two work as one - the same counter QR joins the card and asks for the review.
Asks at the right moment
After a genuinely good visit - a stamp earned, a reward redeemed - the customer gets a gentle nudge to leave a Google review.
Hears problems early
Every customer also gets a private way to tell you what went wrong - so you can put it right, not just watch the review land. Google's link stays open to everyone; we never hide it.
Builds the signal that ranks you
A steady drip of fresh, real reviews is exactly what lifts you in the map results - and what makes people choose you.
Four steps, then it just keeps working
A quick look at where you stand
I check how you show up today - profile, reviews, what neighbours search and what your rivals are doing.
Fix the foundations
Profile tuned, listings made consistent, your site's local signals sorted. The one-time groundwork.
Turn on the review engine
Coco Card starts asking customers for a Google review at the right moment - with a private feedback line alongside, so grumbles reach you early. Everyone gets the same public link.
Grow, and see it
Reviews build, the map results climb, and a simple monthly report shows what's moving. No jargon.
What I won't promise you
Putting this in writing is the point. It's how you know the rest is real.
A guaranteed #1 spot
Nobody can honestly promise a position - anyone who does is guessing or lying.
National, competitive SEO
Ranking a site for broad non-local terms is a slower, different game. This is about your area.
Fake or paid-for reviews
Against Google's rules and a fast way to get the profile suspended. We earn the real ones.
Overnight results
Local rankings usually start shifting in 4-12 weeks. Anyone promising instant is selling smoke.
Let's get you found
Tell me your trade and your town and I'll show you exactly where you stand today - and what it'd take to climb. No obligation, no jargon.
