What your monthly report looks like
Every month you get one plain report that answers three questions: are you showing up more, are more people calling, and what are we doing next. Here is an example.
This is an example. The business, the town and every number on this page are made up to show the format. Your report shows your own rankings and results.
October report for Summit Plumbing, Stockport
Month three of working together. The short version: you are now in the top three on Google Maps across most of Stockport and Cheadle, calls from your profile are up for the third month running, and the next push is Bramhall and Hazel Grove.
Where you rank on Google Maps
We check your position for "plumber near me" from 49 points across your service area, as if a customer were standing at each one. Green means you are in the top three, the spots that take most of the calls. Amber is positions 4 to 10. Red is further down or not shown.

In July you were in the top three at none of the 49 points. In October you are in the top three at 22 of them, and on the first page of the map almost everywhere. The red corners are the furthest edges of your area, which is where we focus next.
