Six workstreams. One ledger.
Everything below is written the way it lands on your monthly Work Ledger, because if a task is not on your ledger, we did not do it.
Categories, services, hours, photos, posts, and Q&A kept accurate, complete, and active, the profile Google actually ranks.
Consistent, sentiment-neutral requests after every job, and every review answered, the compliant way to build review velocity.
One name, one address, one phone across the sources that matter. Conflicts hunted down and fixed, doubt about who you are costs rankings.
Pages for the cities and neighborhoods you actually serve, with real service proof, no doorway-page spam that gets sites penalized.
A multi-point scan across your real service area every month, history kept, so movement, or its absence, is impossible to hide.
The local links, listings, and mentions that Maps counts as evidence a real, established company stands behind the profile.
Measure. Fix. Build. Prove.
Baseline geo-grid, Business Profile audit, review and citation inventory. You see the starting map before anything is promised.
Eligibility and accuracy first: wrong categories, conflicting listings, policy risks, whatever is suppressing you today.
Review cadence, service-area pages, citations, and local mentions — the prominence work that compounds month over month.
Dated geo-grids, GBP actions, and qualified calls on your Work Ledger. Every month. No mystery.
The lines we don’t cross, because they get owners burned.
Google prohibits discouraging negative reviews or selectively requesting positive ones. Mindflow sends consistent, sentiment-neutral review requests and never offers incentives or suppresses legitimate criticism.
No bought reviews, no fake citations, no spam listings, no doorway pages. Shortcuts here are how profiles get suspended — we are the ones owners call after that happens.
Part of every map ranking is how close you are to the searcher, nobody controls that. Anyone promising a map position they don’t control is guessing with your money. Why we don’t guarantee rankings →
You watch the map change color.
Every month you get the geo-grid and the ledger side by side: what we did, and what the map did. The panels below are labeled samples, illustrations of the format, not client data.
If a task isn’t on your ledger, we didn’t do it.
We hold ourselves to the same standard, our own visibility, tracked in public →
Fair questions about Local SEO & Maps
What does a local SEO service actually do month to month?
The unglamorous work that moves map rankings: your Business Profile kept accurate and active (categories, services, photos, posts, Q&A), review requests going out on a steady cadence with every review answered, citation conflicts found and fixed, service-area pages built and improved, and a geo-grid scan at month end showing where you stand, block by block. Every item lands on your Work Ledger with a date, if it isn’t on the ledger, we didn’t do it.
How long until my Maps ranking moves?
Accuracy and eligibility fixes, wrong categories, conflicting listings, suppressed features, can move things within weeks. Competitive position is slower: on the geo-grids we typically see early movement inside 60–90 days, starting closer to your office and spreading outward. We don’t promise dates or positions. We show you dated grids every month, and you watch the color spread, or tell us it isn’t, and we change the plan.
Do you manage my Google Business Profile for me?
Yes, fully: categories, services, hours, photos, posts, Q&A, review replies, and the messy fixes when Google merges, flags, or edits something. One thing we insist on: you stay the primary owner of your own profile. We work as a manager on your account, so if we ever part ways, you lose nothing.
What’s a geo-grid report and will I get one?
A geo-grid checks your ranking from dozens of points across your service area, rather than only from your office, where rankings always look best. The result is a map of colored cells showing exactly where you win and where you’re invisible. You get one every month, dated, with history kept, so movement, or its absence, is impossible to hide.
How do you help us earn more legitimate reviews?
Google prohibits discouraging negative reviews or selectively requesting positive ones. Mindflow sends consistent, sentiment-neutral review requests and never offers incentives or suppresses legitimate criticism. In practice: every completed job gets the same request, timed while the work is fresh, with a direct link that removes friction, and every review gets a reply. Volume comes from consistency, not tricks.
Do citations still matter for local rankings?
Less than they used to; more than zero. Citations are how Google, and AI assistants, confirm you are one real business with one name, one address, one phone number. Conflicting listings plant doubt, and doubt costs rankings and recommendations. We fix the conflicts and keep the sources that matter accurate. We don’t bill you for chasing 500 directories.
Why is my competitor above me on Maps?
Three levers decide the local pack: how close you are to the searcher (nobody can change that), how well your profile matches what was typed (fully fixable, categories, services, content), and how prominent you look (reviews, mentions, links, buildable). We tell you honestly which lever is holding you back. If it’s pure proximity, no agency can fix that spot, and we’ll say so before you spend a dollar.
What does local SEO cost?
At Mindflow, local SEO isn’t sold as a separate product — it runs inside the monthly partnership, from $3,500/month, alongside whatever else your number actually needs. What you pay depends mostly on locations and profiles under management, the size and competitiveness of your service area, and how much cleanup your listings need. The Local Visibility Audit ($3,500–$7,500) tells you what your scope needs before you commit, fully credited when a program begins within 30 days. See full pricing →
