Get Your Business Found on Google

Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) is a free listing from Google that shows your business in Google Maps and Google Search. It displays your business name, address, phone number, business hours, photos, customer reviews, and more. When someone searches for your type of business nearby, your profile can appear prominently in the results.

Setting up your Google Business Profile takes 1 to 2 days. However, Google verification typically takes 5 to 14 days, as Google sends a verification code to confirm your business address. After verification, your listing goes live immediately. Optimizing your profile to rank in the top map results takes 1 to 3 months of consistent effort.

Yes, Google requires a verifiable business address to create a Business Profile. This can be a storefront, office, or even a home office. If you visit customers at their locations instead of them coming to you, you can set up as a service-area business where your address is hidden but you still appear in searches for the areas you serve.

For Nairobi businesses, we recommend starting with KES 30,000 to 50,000 per month in ad spend on top of our management fees. This gives you enough budget to test keywords, find what converts, and build momentum. The exact budget depends on your industry and competition. We help you allocate every shilling for maximum return.

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is organic and free but takes time to build, usually 3 to 6 months for meaningful results.

We recommend both: Google Ads for immediate leads while SEO builds long-term, sustainable traffic that does not require ongoing ad spend.

Yes! We set up automated review request systems that encourage happy customers to leave positive Google reviews. We also help you respond to all reviews professionally, both positive and negative. Good review management is one of the most important factors for ranking higher in Google Maps and building trust with potential customers.
