Google Business Profile setup in Lakeland, Florida
Your Google Business Profile is the listing that shows on Google Maps when someone searches for your shop. We set it up properly, look after it each month if you like, and put a review system on your counter.
The setup, then the monthly care
Local Visibility Setup
Done once, in the first 30 days.
- We lock it down: who owns it, who can get in, and anything that could get it suspended.
- The right categories, and your name, address and phone written the same way everywhere.
- A description built from what people near you search for, in words Google allows.
- Hours, holiday hours and messaging set, and the shop listed in 70+ directories through a listing tool on your own account.
- A review system for the counter, plus a folder to get the listing back if it's ever suspended, ready before you need it.

Build your packageLocal Search Management
Up to 3 hours each month, so the setup holds.
- 4 posts to your listing, written to Google's rules.
- Every review answered within 48 hours, written by hand, never by a bot.
- We watch the questions people ask on the listing, screen every photo and keep the profile current.
- A one-page report of the five numbers that matter, in plain English.
The listing tool is on your card, in your name, about $60 a month and never marked up: about $360 a month all in.
$300/month

Smaller pieces, on their own or added
Counter Kit
$200
A code to scan at the counter, what staff say, how replies are written, and printable cards. Free inside the setup, or sold on its own if that's all your shop wants.
Website Search Check-up
$450
Your website checked the way Google reads it: up to 500 pages, every title and description, speed and mobile. A fix list in priority order within five business days. Credited in full to a website package signed within 90 days.
Local Links Sprint
$600
A ranked list of local places with a real reason to mention you (the chamber, your suppliers, local press), eight hours of asking and following up, and a 30-day report of what went live, what is pending and what was declined. You get hours and a list, never a count.
Baseline + Competitor Report
$300
Where you show on the map around the shop, how the listing performs, and a look at the competition. A good first paid step when the listing is already in order.
Search Check-up Plan
$75/month
Added to management or a website plan: a short note every month on what we saw in your search alerts, and every three months your website's search basics checked, with up to an hour of fixes and a one-page note.
Business Profile Digest
$250 setup, then $95/month
Each new Google review emailed to you in the morning with the link to answer it, anything under four stars flagged for a same-day answer, and a reminder when one waits a day. Replies are still yours to write. Included in management.
How it went for the first shop
Smoke, vape, hemp, kratom, CBD and liquor shops are the specialty: we know how Google and the other platforms treat them. The first shop was one, Puff & Stuff Smoke Shop in Lakeland.
- 74new Google reviews in its first month
- 14 → 65directory listings (the sites that list the shop's name, address and hours), all 65 live since September 28, 2026

What we don't do
Promise rankings
Where your listing shows, and who walks in, isn't ours to promise. The monthly report says what happened either way.
Buy links
No paid links: Google's spam rules forbid them, and they put the listing at risk.
Run paid ads for tobacco, vape or nicotine
The platforms ban the category, so nobody can run them.
Post to your social accounts every day
We set the shop up to post well, and the account stays yours to run.
