The specialist behind the work

One focus. The map pack.

GMB Optimization Pro is not a sprawling agency chasing every industry. It is a specialist practice built around a single question: how does a local service business get found, and called, first on Google?

Why one niche

I don't spread myself thin.

Most agencies take any client with a budget, a restaurant one week, a dentist the next, a roofer after that, and learn each business on the client's dime. I don't work that way. I focus on local service businesses that live or die by the map pack, and local businesses are exactly that kind of business: urgent, phone-driven, and won or lost in the top three results.

That focus is the whole advantage. I already know what a broken-spring call is worth, why category selection makes or breaks a garage door profile, and how seasonal cold snaps drive demand across Ohio's markets. There is no ramp-up, no generic playbook, just work tuned to how your customers actually search.

I personally review every Map-Pack Makeover before it goes live. When you work with GMB Optimization Pro, you are not handed to a rotating junior. You get the specialist, every time.

How I work

By hand, in the open, on your terms.

Manager access, never your password

I work through manager access on your Google Business Profile. You keep full ownership and can revoke access anytime.

Done by hand, not automated

No bulk tools spraying generic changes. Every category, photo and post is chosen for your business and your city.

Weekly reporting you can read

Calls and map positions, reported in plain English, not a monthly PDF of vanity metrics.

Start free, no contract

The first Map-Pack Makeover is on me. No card, no commitment, you keep everything even if we never work together again.

Proven across industries

The same map-pack rules, wherever they apply.

Before focusing on local businesses across Ohio, I built and ranked local businesses in food service, home services and specialty e-commerce, from a halal food-ordering site to an elevator company's lead engine to an embroidery storefront driving traffic to Etsy. Different industries, one constant: get found first, convert the click, earn the review, repeat.

See a few of those builds in the portfolio.
