Are Your Google Business Profile Changes Actually Working? Here's How to Know

You've been updating photos, responding to reviews, and posting regularly to your Google Business Profile—but how do you know if any of it is actually improving your rankings or bringing in more customers? In this episode, Jon and Hope break down exactly how to track your Google Business Profile performance using Google's free built-in tools and professional rank tracking strategies.

Discover which metrics actually matter for your business growth—from phone calls and direction requests to website clicks and booking conversions. Learn why checking your numbers once isn't enough, and how to set up before-and-after comparisons that reveal what's truly working. Jon explains the power of geo-grid mapping tools that show your rankings across your entire service area, not just one location, so you can spot gaps in your coverage and fine-tune your strategy.

You'll also learn how to identify red flags in your data, track review performance, and make data-driven decisions that eliminate guesswork. Whether you're optimizing your profile yourself or working with an agency, this episode gives you the roadmap to measure real results.

  • Why your business ranks differently across your service area
