## Why Google Maps beats “random marketing”
When someone searches *“phone repair near me”* they are already in buying mode. Your job is to:
- show up
- look trustworthy
- make it easy to contact you
This is why the **Google Business Profile (GBP)** + your website + reviews is the best baseline growth channel for most repair shops.

## Step 1: Fix your Google Business Profile in 20 minutes
**Do these today:**
- **Primary category**: choose the closest match (ex: “Mobile phone repair shop”)
- **Services**: add your top 10 services (screen repair, battery, water damage, etc.)
- **Photos**: storefront, inside counter, technician working, before/after
- **Hours**: accurate + holiday hours
- **Description**: write clearly (who you help, what you fix, your area)
---
## Step 2: Reviews (the fastest “rank + trust” combo)
Aim for:
- **volume** (steady new reviews weekly)
- **quality** (detailed reviews mentioning services/city)
- **response rate** (reply to every review)
**Simple script to ask customers:**
> “If we did a great job today, can you leave us a quick Google review? It helps a local shop like ours a lot.”
---
## Step 3: Your website must match your GBP
Google cross-checks:
- business name
- address
- phone number (NAP)
- service pages
Create pages for your main services and your city/areas.
---
## Step 4: Turn map views into booked jobs
Add to your site:
- click-to-call button
- “Get a quote” form
- fast load times (especially mobile)
- clear pricing ranges (even if it’s “starting at”)
---
## Step 5: Track it (so you know it’s working)
Every week, track:
- calls from GBP
- direction requests
- website clicks
- booking form submissions
If you want, you can log these as outreach/marketing notes in LML Digitals so you can see what moves the needle.
