When someone searches for what you do, Google shows three businesses — and a map.

If you're not on that map, you're not in the game.

No profile = no visibility

No visibility = no clicks

No clicks = no customers

And here's the kicker: You won't even know it's happening.

Want to fix it?

Start with a Google Business Profile.

I've helped all kinds of businesses get theirs set up — and it's made a difference. I can walk you through it or take care of it for you.

Just say the word.a

You're not losing customers because your service sucks.

You're losing them because Google doesn't know you exist.

It's tempting to blame the market. But while you're waiting for things to turn around, your competitors are turning up in local searches — and you're not. This isn't about luck or timing. It's about visibility. If Google's not showing you, customers aren't finding you. Let's fix that.

You're not just losing out to competitors… you're losing to casserole. If your local listing has tumbleweeds and 2 sad stars, people will keep scrolling. It's time to catch up — before you're cooked.

Two tiny seeds fell to the same patch of soil.

The first one was eager. “Let's grow,” it said, bursting through the dirt at the first sign of sun.
The second stayed still. “Not yet,” it whispered, listening instead to the wind and waiting for the rain.

Weeks passed. The first seed had become a small, proud sprout — admired by bees and beetles alike.
But when summer scorched the earth, its roots were too shallow. It withered before autumn arrived.

The second seed sprouted late. Quietly. Slowly.
By the time the frost came, it was small but strong — rooted deep, watered well, and ready for what came next.

Growth isn't a race. Sometimes the strongest roots are the ones we don't see — not yet.
🌱 Have you ever found yourself growing slower, only to realise you were building something deeper?

You don't have to shout to be heard. Let your happy customers do the talking. A solid Google review can open more doors than a thousand ads — and the best part? You've already earned it.

I get it. Asking for feedback feels awkward.
But if you genuinely believe in the service you deliver, what's stopping you?

👉 If you've made someone's day easier…
👉 If you've saved them time, money, or stress…
👉 If you've gone above and beyond…

Why stay silent?
Because here's what happens when you don't ask:
Someone less talented, less ethical, less experienced — but louder — gets chosen over you.

They've got 127 glowing Google reviews.
You've got… 7. From 2019. And one of them is your mum.

And while you're sitting there not wanting to bother anyone, they're raking in leads simply because they're visible and trusted.

Let's be clear:
You're not being polite. You're being invisible.
And invisible businesses don't grow.

So ask yourself —
If you really did a great job, why wouldn't they want to tell the world?

Maybe the real reason you don't ask… is because deep down, you're not confident you delivered.
And that's the conversation you actually need to have.
