What happens next
What happens after you sign.
No setup fee. No billing until your locations are live. Here's the whole sequence, including the part most agencies don't mention.
- 01
You sign.
About three minutes. The agreement collects your locations, your ad budget if you want Map Ads, and your billing preference. Nothing bills yet. Nothing bills for a while.
- 02
We collect your details.
One link, one form. Hours, categories, service areas, photos, anything specific to each location. If someone else on your team handles this, forward the link — it works for them too.
- 03
We get access to your profiles.
This is the step that stalls most projects, so we'll say it plainly: we need manager-level access to your Google Business Profile and Apple Business listings. On a portfolio, some of those are held by a former agency, some by individual location managers, and a few nobody can find the login for. We've done this before. We'll work the list with you location by location, and we track every one until it's cleared.
- 04
We claim, verify, and build.
Every location, both platforms. Categories, attributes, hours, service areas, photography, and cleanup of duplicate or wrong listings. If you elected Map Ads, we stage your placements so you can bid the day the auction opens.
- 05
You go live. Billing starts here.
The day your locations publish is the day the meter starts — not the day you signed. Your first invoice is prorated to the exact number of days served, issued on the 1st of the following month.
- 06
Ongoing.
Posts and offers, review monitoring, competitor tracking, and reporting per location with a portfolio roll-up. A named contact, not a ticket queue.
What this costs you if it doesn't work out
Nothing up front.
No setup, onboarding, or build fee at any location count. We ask for a 90-day initial term instead — building and verifying every location is the most expensive month of the engagement, and that's what covers it.
Everything stays yours.
Profiles, photos, reviews, ad accounts. All of it is created under your business and stays with you. If you leave, we remove our access and nothing comes down.
Then month-to-month.
After the initial 90 days, cancel with 30 days' notice. No renewal traps, no auto-escalating term.
Ad spend at cost, always.
Whatever you budget goes to Google and Apple. We take no markup, margin, or commission on media. Because we bill in arrears, your invoice shows what the platforms actually charged.
