Pull up the competitor who keeps taking the emergency calls. His profile has a post from this month — a job photo, a seasonal offer, signs of life. Yours has the grand-opening post and a photo of a truck you sold. Homeowners read that difference the way you would read two shops on a street: one open, one maybe not.
You do not have a marketing department, and the office manager has a real job. Managed presence puts the profile on a monthly production rhythm — a post, a photo refresh, Q&A watched, hours true — run by the same team that runs the review engine, so the two surfaces stop contradicting each other.
What leaving it costs
A sample month is the honest unit here: one post written and published, photos refreshed from your real jobs, every question answered, every review replied to. Ask any provider — including us — to show you a sample month before you buy a year of 'presence.' Ours is this page's proof section, and it is a deliverable, not a vibe.
after-hours inquiries × $ per booked job = $ gone
The fix: Managed Google Presence
Presence Care $129/mo · full management inside Growth Retainer $850/mo
What is included
- Posts and photo refreshes on a monthly cadence, written for the services you want sold
- Q&A monitored and answered; hours and attributes kept true, including holidays
- A monthly presence check you can actually read: what changed, what your reviews did, what is next
- Inside the Growth Retainer: the review engine operated on top — requests sent, every reply drafted for your approval
What is not included
- No standalone 'Google management' gimmicks — this is the tier scope, at the tier price, nothing invented in between
- No ranking guarantees — prominence is earned by the whole presence, and we will show you the inputs monthly
Micro Credit: 100% of this fee is credited toward a Presence Foundation install or the flagship setup if you sign within 90 days. One correction round (facts, names, numbers) is included.
Our own business's profile runs this cadence — posts published through the season (the October catering post, photo attached, verified live on the public profile), reviews answered daily. A sample month of managed output looks like our October, and we will walk you through it on the call.
The free presence audit
We check your site, your Google profile, your review state, and how fast a test inquiry gets answered — and send you the three findings that matter. Yours to keep, whoever fixes them.
