"We set up our GBP with Inventive and went from zero local presence to ranking in the top 3 for our main search terms. We get 40+ enquiries a week now just from Google Maps."

Google review
Ken Mackovic
Founder, Happy Tail Puppies · USA

"I was invisible on Google Maps before — no profile, no reviews, no presence. Now I rank #1 locally and my GBP drives more leads than Instagram. Game-changer."

Google review
Brigid Schlegel
Real Estate Agent · Austin, TX

"Reviews went from 11 to 74 in 4 months. The strategy for generating them consistently was simple but the impact on our local ranking was massive. We're now the top-rated in our suburb."

Common questions
answered honestly.

How do I get my business to show up on Google Maps?

Your Google Business Profile (GBP) is the primary factor in Google Maps rankings. Key optimisation signals include: complete and accurate business information, consistent NAP (name, address, phone) across the web, regular GBP posts, a high volume of recent 5-star reviews, and local keyword optimisation in your description and services. Inventive Media handles all of this systematically.

How long does it take to rank in the Google local 3-pack?

Most businesses see measurable ranking movement within 4–8 weeks of starting a proper optimisation campaign. Reaching the local 3-pack for competitive terms typically takes 2–4 months. The speed depends on your starting position, local competition, and how quickly we can build citations and reviews.

How can I get more Google reviews fast?

The fastest, most effective method is a systematic follow-up process: automated email and SMS requests sent to every customer shortly after their experience, combined with QR code review cards for in-person businesses. Inventive Media's review generation system typically doubles a client's review count within the first 60 days.

Does Google Business Profile affect my website's Google ranking?

Yes. A well-optimised GBP with strong reviews, consistent citations, and regular posts sends authority signals to Google that improve your website's rankings for local search terms. GBP and local SEO work as a connected system — improvements in one reinforce the other.

What happens if someone leaves a bad review on my Google Business Profile?

Negative reviews need a prompt, professional response — which is included in our management service. We draft responses that acknowledge the concern, demonstrate accountability, and show future customers that you care. Where a review violates Google's policies (fake, spam, or competitor reviews), we flag it for removal through the official process.
