Guide 01 · First launch

Confirm the business before building its signals.

The strongest first launch starts with operational truth: what the business actually does, where it actually serves and what it can prove.

1. Lock the real business identity

  • Use the real-world business name consistently.
  • Choose one authoritative phone number and website.
  • Record the exact address or service-area operating model.
  • Collect licenses, signage, vehicles and other relevant proof before verification.

2. Validate the location

  • Confirm customers are served face-to-face where required.
  • Do not build location assets around mailboxes or invented offices.
  • Document hours and staffing that reflect actual operations.
  • Evaluate one strong eligible location before expanding.

3. Match profitable intent

  • List specific customer problems rather than only broad service categories.
  • Separate emergency, planned, repair and replacement intent.
  • Prioritize services with real capacity and meaningful job value.
  • Build the clearest high-intent opportunity first.

4. Prepare the implementation

  • Assign one page to one clear search problem and customer outcome.
  • Add real evidence, service boundaries and conversion paths.
  • Keep business information identical across owned assets.
  • Review proposed changes before editing core profile fields.

5. Define measurement before launch

  • Track qualified calls, forms, appointments and closed work.
  • Record which service and location produced each lead.
  • Establish the starting baseline before changes go live.
  • Judge the build by revenue signals—not impressions alone.
