"Own the map. Own the local search."
Start a projectGoogle Business Profile is the single highest-ROI local SEO asset for any business with a physical location or service area. It shows up before the organic results, before ads, and is where 46% of all Google searches with local intent make their decision.
PrimeOak runs GBP as a managed service — daily posts, review responses, Q&A, service area optimisation, photo refreshes — and pairs it with local landing pages that convert profile traffic into calls, directions and bookings.

GBP ranking factors that actually matter
Proximity, prominence and relevance — Google's three signals, in that order. We can't move your physical address, but we can move prominence (reviews, citations, backlinks) and relevance (categories, services, posts, Q&A).
Weekly consistency matters more than one-off optimisation. Google's algorithm rewards active profiles over dormant ones.
Multi-location and franchise setup
For businesses with 5+ locations, we set up a location group with role-based access, standardised categories and consistent NAP (name, address, phone) across every citation source. Bulk uploads, review consolidation and per-location reporting are all handled.
Franchise-safe: local franchisees keep operational access while brand governance stays central.
Questions, answered.
How long until we rank in the local pack?+
Usually 4–10 weeks with disciplined optimisation and review flow.
Can you manage multiple locations?+
Yes — multi-location management with centralised governance.
How long before we rank in the map pack?+
Established locations often see movement in 4–8 weeks. New locations take 3–6 months to build enough prominence signals to rank on competitive terms.
Can you handle review responses?+
Yes — we respond to every review within 24 hours, in your brand voice, with escalation to you for anything sensitive.
