📍 Your Digital Shopfront Starts Here

Your Google My Business (GMB) listing is the foundation of your digital presence.
Not a “nice to have.” It’s how people find you on mobile when they’re nearby and ready to buy.

✅ Think of it like your digital shopfront.
✅ It powers your visibility on Google Maps and local searches.
✅ And it's the first step in your GEO plan — the strategy that helps your business show up in every suburb you serve.
