Get Found on Google. Then Get Chosen.
A website alone won't put you in the map pack. A Google Business Profile alone won't close the customer. We handle both — built by someone who spent 5+ years on local visibility before ever building a website.
They Do Different Jobs
Your profile is where they find you
Most local searches never leave Google. The map pack is the first — and often only — impression.
Your website is where they decide
A profile gets the click. The website earns the call. One without the other leaks customers.
They feed each other
A real website with city pages and schema strengthens your profile's ranking. The profile drives traffic back. Managed together, both do better.
Handled Monthly, Not Set-and-Forgotten
Google Business Profile management runs through Northstar Local GBP Management. Most profiles are set up once and never touched again — that's exactly why they stop ranking.
Profile optimization
Categories, services, attributes, description, and hours set up the way Google actually reads them.
Ongoing posts
Regular Google posts written around how your customers search — not generic offer blasts.
Photo management
Fresh, correctly-typed photos added on a schedule instead of once at setup.
Review strategy
A system for asking, plus responses that read like a person wrote them.
Performance reporting
What searches you're showing up for, calls, direction requests, and what changed.
AI search readiness
Structured data and consistent business information so ChatGPT and AI Overviews can recommend you.
Already have a website you like?
Management works on its own. You don't need to rebuild anything to have your profile handled properly.
Bundle Questions
Is GBP management included in the $995?
No. The $995 covers your website build, which includes initial Google Business Profile setup. Ongoing management is a separate service through Northstar Local GBP Management — ask us for current pricing.
Can I get management without a website?
Yes. Plenty of clients have a website they're happy with and just need the profile handled.
What access do you need?
Manager access to your Google Business Profile. You stay the owner and can remove access at any time.
Am I locked into a contract?
No. If it isn't working for you, you can stop.
How soon do results show?
Profile changes can move rankings within weeks, but it varies by how competitive your category and city are. Anyone promising a specific timeline is guessing.
