Local Business Marketing on a Budget: 10 Strategies That Actually Work in 2026

Every local business owner faces the same challenge: how do you compete for customers when your marketing budget is a fraction of what larger competitors spend? The good news is that throwing money at marketing rarely works. Strategic, focused marketing on a budget consistently outperforms wasteful spending.

I've worked with over 200 local service businesses, from plumbers and contractors to dental practices and retail shops. The most successful ones aren't spending the most money on marketing. They're spending money strategically on the right things, and they're ruthless about tracking what works.

This guide breaks down exactly how to market your local business effectively with limited resources. Whether you have $200 or $2,000 monthly to spend, these strategies deliver measurable returns without requiring a marketing degree or full-time staff.

1. Google Business Profile Optimization (Free - $0/month)

If you only have time to implement one strategy from this entire guide, make it Google Business Profile optimization. It's completely free, takes just a few hours to set up properly, and consistently delivers the highest ROI of any local marketing tactic.

Why This Works

When someone searches "plumber near me" or "best Italian restaurant in [city]," Google displays a map with three local businesses at the top of search results. This "Local Pack" gets over 40% of all clicks. A fully optimized GBP makes you 3-5x more likely to appear in those top three spots.

Implementation Steps

Complete every section 100%. Google rewards profiles with complete information. Fill out business name, category, address, phone, website, hours, attributes, and services. Incomplete profiles get buried.

Choose the right primary category. This is the single most important ranking factor. Don't be creative, use the exact category your competitors rank for. A plumber should select "Plumber," not "Home Services" or "Emergency Plumber."

Upload 50+ high-quality photos. Businesses with 50+ photos get 520% more calls than those with fewer images. Include exterior shots, team photos, completed work, service vehicles, and satisfied customers. Add new photos weekly.

Write a keyword-rich business description. You have 750 characters to tell Google and customers what you do. Include your primary service keywords naturally: "family-owned plumbing company serving [City] since 2010. We specialize in emergency plumbing repairs, water heater installation, drain cleaning, and bathroom remodeling."

Post weekly updates. Google Business Posts keep your profile active and fresh. Share project photos, special offers, tips, or company news. These appear directly in your profile and signal to Google that you're an active, legitimate business.

2. Review Generation Strategy ($50-200/month)

Online reviews are the modern version of word-of-mouth referrals. They build trust, improve search rankings, and directly impact purchasing decisions. 93% of consumers read online reviews before choosing a local business, and businesses with 50+ reviews get 140% more conversions than those with fewer.

Why This Works

Reviews create a virtuous cycle. More reviews improve your Google Business Profile ranking, which generates more visibility, leading to more customers and more reviews. Reviews also serve as powerful social proof that converts website visitors into paying customers.

Implementation Steps

Create a simple review request system. The best time to ask for a review is within 24 hours of completing excellent service, while the positive experience is fresh. Set up an automated email or text message that goes out after each completed job.

Make it ridiculously easy. Include a direct link to your Google review page in every request. The fewer clicks required, the higher your response rate. A simple message: "We'd love your feedback! Click here to leave a quick review: [direct link]" works better than complex explanations.

Ask in person first. When you finish a job and the customer is happy, say: "If you're satisfied with the work, would you be willing to share a quick review online? I'll send you a link this afternoon to make it easy." This personal ask increases follow-through by 300%.

Respond to every review. Thank positive reviewers publicly and address negative reviews professionally. This shows prospective customers that you care about feedback and handle problems professionally. It also signals to Google that you're an engaged business owner.

Display reviews on your website. Don't let reviews live only on Google. Feature them prominently on your homepage, service pages, and checkout process. Reviews shown at the point of conversion increase conversion rates by 270%.

3. Local SEO and Content Marketing ($0-300/month)

Local SEO ensures your business appears when people search for your services in your area. Unlike paid advertising that stops when you stop paying, local SEO builds compounding value over time. Content you create today can generate leads for years.

Why This Works

Most local businesses ignore content marketing because they think it's too complex or time-consuming. This creates a massive opportunity for businesses willing to publish helpful, locally-focused content consistently. Just 2-4 well-optimized pages can outrank competitors with bigger budgets.

Implementation Steps

Optimize your website for local keywords. Every service page should target "service + city" combinations. Instead of generic "Plumbing Services," use "Emergency Plumber in Austin, TX" or "24-Hour Plumbing Repair Austin." Include the city name in your title tags, H1 headings, and throughout the content naturally.

Create location-specific service pages. If you serve multiple cities or neighborhoods, create dedicated pages for each location. These pages should include: specific services offered in that area, landmarks and neighborhoods you serve, customer testimonials from that location, and locally-relevant content.

Publish helpful local content. Answer the questions your customers actually ask. A roofing company might write "How to Prepare Your Austin Home for Storm Season" or "5 Signs Your Roof Needs Replacement (Texas Edition)." This content ranks for long-tail keywords and builds trust with potential customers.

Build local citations. Submit your business information (name, address, phone, website) to local directories like Yelp, Yellow Pages, Angi, and industry-specific directories. Consistent citations across the web improve your local search rankings.

Earn local backlinks. Links from other local websites tell Google you're a legitimate local business. Sponsor a little league team and get a link from the league website. Partner with complementary businesses and link to each other. Write guest posts for local business blogs or news sites.

4. Email Marketing for Repeat Business ($20-100/month)

Email marketing delivers an average ROI of $36 for every $1 spent, making it one of the highest-return marketing channels available. For local businesses, email is particularly powerful because you're marketing to people who already know and trust you.

Why This Works

Acquiring a new customer costs 5-25x more than retaining an existing one. Email keeps your business top-of-mind with past customers, encouraging repeat business and referrals. It's also a direct communication channel you own, unlike social media where algorithms control who sees your content.

Implementation Steps

Collect email addresses systematically. Add an email field to your contact forms, invoices, and checkout process. Offer a small incentive: "Join our email list for seasonal tips and exclusive offers." Aim to capture 60-80% of customer emails.

Segment your list by customer type. Not all customers need the same messages. Segment by: past customers vs. prospects, service type purchased, how recently they used your services, and geographic location within your service area. Targeted emails get 3x higher engagement.

Send value-first content. Your emails shouldn't be constant sales pitches. Use the 80/20 rule: 80% helpful content, 20% promotional. Share seasonal tips, maintenance reminders, industry news, behind-the-scenes content, and customer success stories. Build trust first, sales follow.

Create automated email sequences. Set up automated workflows that save time and increase revenue: Welcome series for new subscribers, post-service follow-up requesting reviews, seasonal maintenance reminders, re-engagement campaigns for inactive customers, and birthday/anniversary offers.

Maintain consistent sending schedule. Whether weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, consistency matters more than frequency. Pick a schedule you can maintain indefinitely. Inconsistent sending trains subscribers to ignore your emails or forget who you are.

5. Referral Programs ($100-500/month)

Word-of-mouth referrals are the highest-quality leads you can get. Referred customers convert at 4x the rate of other channels, have 37% higher retention rates, and spend more per transaction. A structured referral program systematizes what already happens occasionally.

Why This Works

People trust recommendations from friends and family more than any advertising. When your happy customers actively recommend you to their network, you gain instant credibility. The key is making referrals easy and rewarding the behavior you want to see.

Implementation Steps

Create a compelling offer structure. The best referral programs reward both parties. Examples: "Give $50, Get $50" (referrer and new customer both receive $50 credit), "Refer 3 friends, get one free service," or tiered rewards that increase with more referrals. Make the math simple and the benefit obvious.

Make it ridiculously easy to refer. Create a simple referral link or code that customers can share via text, email, or social media. Provide ready-made messages they can copy and send. The fewer steps required, the more referrals you'll get.

Ask at the right moment. The best time to mention your referral program is right after delivering exceptional service, when the customer is happiest. Include it in your post-service follow-up email, on invoices, and in review request messages.

Promote it consistently. Don't assume customers remember your referral program exists. Include it in email signatures, on your website footer, in monthly newsletters, on service vehicle graphics, and on business cards you leave behind.

Track and reward promptly. Use unique codes or links to track who referred whom. Deliver rewards quickly after the referred customer completes their first purchase. Delayed rewards reduce future referral motivation by 60%.

6. Community Partnerships and Local Networking ($50-200/month)

Local networking and strategic partnerships put your business in front of ideal customers through trusted community channels. The cost is primarily your time, with minimal monetary investment required for maximum relationship-building impact.

Why This Works

People prefer doing business with companies that invest in their local community. Community involvement builds brand recognition, generates word-of-mouth referrals, creates partnership opportunities with complementary businesses, and positions you as a trusted local expert rather than just another vendor.

Implementation Steps

Join local business organizations. Chamber of Commerce memberships typically cost $200-600 annually and provide networking events, directory listings, and referral opportunities. BNI (Business Network International) chapters meet weekly for structured referral exchanges. Even one quality referral monthly justifies the investment.

Form strategic partnerships. Identify complementary businesses that serve your same customer base but don't compete directly. A painter partners with a flooring company and interior designer. A wedding photographer partners with venues, caterers, and florists. Cross-refer customers and potentially create package deals.

Sponsor local events and teams. Little league sponsorships ($200-500), school fundraiser donations ($100-300), and community event support generate goodwill and brand visibility. Your company name on uniforms, event signage, and programs keeps you top-of-mind with local families.

Participate in community events. Set up a booth at farmers markets, home shows, or community fairs. Offer free consultations, demonstrations, or educational materials. The goal isn't immediate sales but building relationships and collecting contact information for follow-up.

Host educational workshops. Position yourself as the local expert by teaching free community workshops. A financial advisor hosts "Retirement Planning 101" at the local library. A contractor offers "Home Maintenance Workshops" at hardware stores. These establish authority and generate qualified leads.

7. Social Media Marketing (Organic) ($0-150/month)

Organic social media allows you to build brand awareness, showcase your work, and engage with local customers without advertising spend. While organic reach has declined, local businesses can still achieve significant results by focusing on the right platforms and content types.

Why This Works

Social media keeps your business visible between purchases. Most local services are purchased infrequently (roofing every 20 years, HVAC every 10-15 years), so staying top-of-mind ensures you're the first call when a need arises. Social proof through engagement also influences purchasing decisions.

Implementation Steps

Choose the right platform(s). Don't spread yourself thin. Facebook works well for most local businesses (older demographic, local community groups). Instagram excels for visual businesses (restaurants, landscaping, interior design, contractors). LinkedIn serves B2B service providers. Pick one or two and do them well.

Post consistently, not constantly. Quality beats frequency. Three valuable posts weekly outperform daily low-effort content. Batch-create content in 2-hour sessions so you're not scrambling daily. Use scheduling tools (Meta Business Suite is free) to maintain consistency.

Show behind-the-scenes content. People connect with people, not logos. Share team photos, project progress, day-in-the-life content, customer success stories, and your business journey. Authenticity builds trust more effectively than polished corporate content.

Engage in local community groups. Join and actively participate in local Facebook groups, neighborhood forums, and community pages. Answer questions helpfully without immediately selling. When someone asks "Can anyone recommend a good plumber?" members who recognize your name from helpful contributions will tag you.

Leverage user-generated content. Encourage customers to tag your business in photos and posts. Share their content (with permission) to your profile. This provides social proof while reducing your content creation burden.

8. AI-Powered Automation to Reduce Marketing Costs ($20-100/month)

AI tools and automation allow small businesses to compete with larger competitors by doing more with less. Tasks that previously required hiring help or expensive agencies can now be handled efficiently with modern technology, dramatically reducing your effective marketing costs.

Why This Works

Time is money, especially for small business owners. Every hour spent on repetitive marketing tasks is an hour not spent serving customers or growing the business. Automation handles routine work while you focus on high-value activities only you can do.

Implementation Steps

Use AI for content creation. Tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or Jasper dramatically accelerate content creation. Use AI to generate first drafts of blog posts, email newsletters, social media captions, and ad copy. You still provide expertise and editing, but AI eliminates the blank page problem and cuts creation time by 60-70%.

Automate customer communication. Set up automated responses for common questions using chatbots on your website. Create email autoresponders for contact form submissions, appointment confirmations, and service reminders. This improves customer experience while reducing manual communication time.

Schedule and batch content. Use scheduling tools to batch-create and schedule weeks of social media posts in one sitting. Buffer, Hootsuite, or Meta Business Suite (free) let you maintain consistent presence without daily manual posting.

Automate review requests. Set up automated email or SMS sequences that request reviews 24-48 hours after service completion. This eliminates the need to manually remember and send each request, dramatically increasing review volume.

Use AI for image and video creation. Tools like Canva (with AI features), Midjourney, or DALL-E create marketing visuals without hiring designers. AI video tools create social media content from text scripts. This reduces dependence on expensive creative services.

9. Strategic Paid Advertising on Small Budgets ($300-1,000/month)

Once you've optimized free and low-cost strategies, strategic paid advertising amplifies your results. The key word is "strategic" because small budgets require laser focus on high-intent audiences and proven offers. Spray-and-pray advertising wastes money quickly.

Why This Works

Paid advertising delivers immediate visibility and traffic, unlike organic strategies that take time to build momentum. When executed strategically with proper targeting and tracking, even small ad budgets generate positive ROI while you build long-term organic channels.

Implementation Steps

Start with Google Local Services Ads. For service businesses (plumbers, electricians, locksmiths, house cleaners), Local Services Ads are the best starting point. You only pay for actual leads (phone calls or messages), not clicks. Google guarantees the leads, and the screening badge builds trust. Cost per lead: $15-80 depending on industry and market.

Use Google Search Ads for high-intent keywords. Target specific service + location combinations with high purchase intent: "emergency plumber [city]," "roof repair near me," "same day appliance repair [city]." These searches signal immediate need. Start with $10-20 daily budget targeting 5-10 high-intent keywords.

Run Facebook/Instagram ads for retargeting. Most website visitors don't convert on first visit. Install the Meta Pixel on your website and create retargeting campaigns showing ads to people who visited but didn't convert. Retargeting ads cost 70% less than cold traffic ads and convert 3-5x better.

Test offers before scaling spend. Small budgets can't afford to test 10 different ad variations. Start with your proven offer (the one that already converts for your business). Test one ad, one audience, one landing page. Once it works, optimize and scale. Add budget to winners, kill losers fast.

Focus on one platform at a time. Spreading $500 across Google, Facebook, and Instagram dilutes impact. Pick the platform where your customers are most active and dominate it before expanding elsewhere. For most local services, start with Google Search or Local Services Ads.

10. Tracking ROI on Every Marketing Dollar ($0-50/month)

The difference between profitable marketing and wasted spending is tracking. You can't optimize what you don't measure. Tracking ROI allows you to double down on what works and eliminate what doesn't, making every dollar work harder.

Why This Works

Most small businesses waste 30-50% of their marketing budget on channels that don't work because they're not tracking results. Proper tracking reveals exactly which marketing efforts generate revenue, allowing data-driven decisions instead of guesswork.

Implementation Steps

Track lead sources religiously. Every time someone contacts your business, ask "How did you hear about us?" and record the answer. Train your team to ask every single time without fail. Use dropdown fields in your CRM or a simple spreadsheet if you don't have one.

Use unique phone numbers for different channels. Services like CallRail ($45/month) provide tracking numbers for different marketing sources. Use one number for Google Ads, another for your website, another for vehicle graphics. This definitively shows which channels drive calls.

Implement UTM parameters for all links. UTM parameters are tags added to URLs that tell analytics software where traffic came from. Use them in email campaigns, social media posts, and any external links. Google Analytics (free) shows exactly which campaigns drive traffic and conversions.

Calculate customer lifetime value (LTV). A new customer isn't worth just their first purchase. Calculate average customer lifetime value: (average purchase × average purchase frequency × average customer lifespan). A customer who spends $300 annually for 5 years is worth $1,500, justifying higher acquisition costs.

Create a simple marketing dashboard. Don't let data sit unused. Create a simple spreadsheet or dashboard tracking: marketing spend by channel, leads generated by channel, conversion rate by channel, cost per lead, cost per customer, revenue per customer, and overall ROI. Review weekly or monthly.

Set up conversion tracking. Google Analytics and Google Ads need conversion tracking configured to measure results properly. Track form submissions, phone calls, chat conversations, purchases, and any other valuable actions. Without conversion tracking, you're flying blind.

Creating Your Budget Marketing Plan: Sample Allocations

Now that you understand each strategy, here's how to allocate actual budgets based on what you have to invest. These are starting templates; adjust based on your specific business, market, and what's working.

Micro Budget: $200-500/month

At this budget level, focus on free and low-cost strategies that require more sweat equity than money:

• $0 - Google Business Profile optimization (your time only)
• $50 - Review management software or automation tools
• $25 - Email marketing platform (up to 1,000 contacts)
• $50 - Referral program rewards (5-10 small rewards monthly)
• $75 - Community involvement (networking events, small sponsorships)
• $30 - AI and automation tools (ChatGPT Plus, Canva)
• $0 - Social media (organic only, your time)
• $0 - Local SEO content creation (your time)
• $20 - Basic tracking tools

Total: $250/month - The remaining budget acts as a buffer or gets allocated to the channel performing best. At this level, your time investment is 6-10 hours weekly handling marketing tasks yourself.

Small Budget: $800-1,500/month

This budget allows you to add strategic paid advertising and better tools:

• $0 - Google Business Profile optimization (ongoing maintenance)
• $100 - Review management and automation platform
• $50 - Email marketing platform (up to 2,500 contacts)
• $150 - Referral program rewards (15-20 monthly rewards)
• $150 - Community partnerships and events
• $75 - AI tools and automation (ChatGPT Plus, Canva Pro, basic Zapier)
• $100 - Content creation support (stock photos, occasional freelance help)
• $500 - Google Local Services Ads or Search Ads (primary paid channel)
• $75 - Call tracking and analytics tools

Total: $1,200/month - At this level, you're combining strong organic foundations with strategic paid traffic. Time investment: 4-6 hours weekly as tools and paid channels reduce manual work.

Growth Budget: $2,000-3,500/month

This budget supports more aggressive growth and expansion:

• $200 - Professional GBP management and optimization
• $200 - Comprehensive review management platform
• $100 - Email marketing platform (up to 5,000 contacts) with automation
• $300 - Robust referral program with higher rewards
• $300 - Strategic community partnerships and sponsorships
• $150 - Advanced AI and automation tools
• $300 - Content creation (regular blog posts, professional photos)
• $1,500 - Multi-channel paid advertising (Google + Facebook retargeting)
• $150 - Comprehensive tracking and analytics

Total: $3,200/month - This budget allows you to potentially hire part-time marketing help or work with specialized consultants for specific channels while maintaining hands-on oversight.

Common Budget Marketing Mistakes to Avoid

I've seen hundreds of local businesses waste money on marketing. Here are the most common and costly mistakes:

Spreading Budget Too Thin

Trying to be everywhere simultaneously dilutes your impact. $100/month on Google Ads, $100 on Facebook, $100 on Instagram, $100 on direct mail means you're weak everywhere instead of strong anywhere. Pick 2-3 channels and dominate them before expanding.

Paying for Ads Before Optimizing Free Channels

Sending paid traffic to a website with a 1% conversion rate or a incomplete Google Business Profile is burning money. Optimize your free presence first. A proper GBP can generate more leads than $1,000/month in poorly targeted ads.

Not Tracking Results

"I spent $2,000 on marketing but I'm not sure if it worked" is unacceptable in 2026. Track everything. Without data, you're just guessing about what works, and guessing wastes money fast.

Ignoring Existing Customers

Many businesses spend 90% of their marketing budget chasing new customers while neglecting the gold mine of past customers. Email marketing to existing customers delivers 5-10x better ROI than cold advertising. Market to people who already trust you.

Copying Competitors Without Testing

Just because your competitor runs Facebook ads doesn't mean Facebook ads will work for your business. They might have different offers, better conversion rates, or they might be losing money on those ads. Test what works for YOUR business based on YOUR data.

Expecting Overnight Results

Marketing is a compounding investment. GBP optimization, content marketing, and organic social media take 60-90 days to show momentum. Giving up after 3 weeks means you never see the return. Commit to 90 days minimum for any strategy before judging effectiveness.

Your 90-Day Budget Marketing Action Plan

Here's a practical roadmap for implementing these strategies over the next 90 days, regardless of your budget:

Month 1: Foundation

Week 1: Completely optimize your Google Business Profile. Fill every section, upload 50+ photos, write a keyword-rich description, and create your first 3 posts. Set up basic tracking: create a spreadsheet to log lead sources and implement Google Analytics if you haven't already.

Week 2: Launch your review generation system. Create email templates requesting reviews, set up automated sequences if using email software, and personally ask your last 10 customers for reviews. Set up review monitoring so you're alerted to new reviews immediately.

Week 3: Start email marketing. Choose a platform, import existing customer emails, and send your first newsletter with valuable content (not just promotional). Set up 2-3 automated email sequences (welcome series, post-service follow-up).

Week 4: Design your referral program. Define rewards, create simple tracking, design promotional materials (email templates, printable cards), and launch to your best customers first. Add referral program mentions to all customer communications.

Month 2: Expansion

Week 5: Establish local partnerships. Identify 5-10 complementary businesses, reach out to propose cross-referral relationships, join one local networking group (Chamber, BNI), and attend your first event.

Week 6: Launch consistent social media. Choose your primary platform, create a content calendar for the month, batch-create content for 4 weeks, and schedule everything. Focus on 3-4 posts weekly showing your work, team, and providing value.

Week 7: Implement AI and automation tools. Set up ChatGPT Plus or similar AI tools, create templates for common content types, automate review requests and email sequences, and use scheduling tools to batch social media work.

Week 8: Create your first local SEO content. Write 2-3 location-specific service pages or blog posts answering common customer questions. Optimize with local keywords. Submit to local directories and citation sites.

Month 3: Optimization and Growth

Week 9: Review all data from months 1-2. Which channels generated the most leads? What's your conversion rate by source? Which strategies show promise? Identify your top 2 performing channels for increased investment.

Week 10: Optimize and scale what's working. If email is performing well, increase sending frequency or add more automation. If GBP is driving leads, create more posts and add more photos. Double down on winners.

Week 11: If free channels are working, add strategic paid advertising. Start small ($300-500) on your best-performing channel. For service businesses, try Google Local Services Ads first. Set up conversion tracking before spending a dollar.

Week 12: Refine and systematize. Document what's working in simple SOPs. Train team members to help with routine tasks. Set up systems to maintain momentum with less daily effort. Plan your next 90 days based on data and results.

Measuring Success: KPIs That Actually Matter

Track metrics that directly connect to revenue, not vanity metrics that make you feel good but don't pay bills:

Cost Per Lead (CPL): Total marketing spend ÷ number of leads generated. Track this overall and by channel. Decreasing CPL over time indicates improving efficiency. Know your target CPL based on your conversion rate and customer value.

Lead-to-Customer Conversion Rate: Number of customers ÷ number of leads. If this is under 20%, you have a sales problem, not a marketing problem. Improving this metric makes all marketing more profitable.

Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC): Total marketing spend ÷ new customers acquired. This must be lower than customer lifetime value to be profitable. Target CAC of 1/3 or less of LTV for healthy margins.

Return on Marketing Investment (ROMI): (Revenue from marketing - marketing cost) ÷ marketing cost × 100. Track overall and by channel. Anything under 200% ROMI needs optimization or elimination. Aim for 300-500% overall.

Customer Lifetime Value (LTV): Average customer value × average purchase frequency × average customer lifespan. Increasing LTV through repeat business and referrals makes customer acquisition dramatically more profitable.

Website Conversion Rate: Website visitors who take desired action ÷ total visitors. Under 2% is poor, 2-5% is average, 5%+ is excellent for local businesses. Small improvements here amplify all traffic-driving efforts.

Conclusion: Smart Strategy Beats Big Budgets

Marketing a local business on a budget isn't about finding cheap shortcuts or cutting corners. It's about strategic allocation of limited resources to the channels that deliver measurable returns for YOUR specific business.

The businesses that win aren't those with the biggest marketing budgets. They're the ones who ruthlessly track results, double down on what works, eliminate what doesn't, and continually optimize every dollar spent.

Start with the free high-impact strategies: optimize your Google Business Profile, generate reviews systematically, and market to existing customers via email. These three tactics alone can generate significant lead flow without spending a dollar on advertising.

As you see results and revenue increases, reinvest profits strategically into paid channels that amplify your organic efforts. Track everything relentlessly. Make decisions based on data, not assumptions or what competitors are doing.

Remember, every large successful business started with limited resources. The constraint of a small budget forces creativity, efficiency, and focus on what truly matters: delivering value to customers and communicating that value effectively.

Implement the 90-day action plan outlined above. Give each strategy fair time to work. Measure results honestly. Adjust based on what you learn. Within 90 days, you'll have a customized marketing system that works for your business, your market, and your budget.

The best time to start was yesterday. The second best time is right now. Open your Google Business Profile and start optimizing. Your future customers are searching right now. Make sure they find you.
