1. Your logo & banner

  • โœ“Use a clean logo on a white background โ€” it shows crisp on your card and in link previews.
  • โœ“Blurry or dark photos cost you clicks. When in doubt, simpler is better.

2. Write a description that sells

  • โœ“Lead with what you do and who you serve: 'Family-owned roofing serving Eau Claire since 2019.'
  • โœ“Name your town(s) โ€” it helps you show up in local search and builds trust.
  • โœ“Skip the jargon. Write like you'd talk to a neighbor.

3. Listings that convert

  • โœ“Every listing needs a real photo โ€” listings with images get far more clicks.
  • โœ“Be specific in titles: '4x12 sidewalk with mulch' beats 'concrete work.'
  • โœ“Show a price or a clear 'Free estimate' โ€” uncertainty kills conversions.
  • โœ“Pick the right call-to-action per listing: Book, Call, Buy, Free estimate, or View menu.

4. Build trust fast

  • โœ“Collect reviews โ€” ask happy customers right after the job.
  • โœ“Keep your hours, phone, and service area current.
  • โœ“Respond to inquiries quickly. Speed is the local advantage.
