Example scan — "water heater repair," 7-mile radius illustrative, not your data
Top 3 4–10 11–20 Not in top 20 ◎ your shop

Top 3 at 3 of 25 points scanned. Not in the top 20 at 8. This is what a scan looks like — yours will show your real numbers.

The search you run isn't the search they run

How you check your ranking

You type your business name into Google, standing in your own shop. You show up first. Looks fine.

How a customer actually searches

They type "water heater repair near me" from a neighborhood three miles away. Google ranks results by where they're standing — not where you are.

A good ranking near your own address tells you almost nothing about your visibility everywhere else you serve.

The gap between top and bottom is bigger than most owners think

We measured 100 plumbing, HVAC, and electrical companies across 10 Michigan markets — 4,410 Google Maps grid points in total.

Star rating barely predicted the difference between the strongest and weakest companies. What separated them: a steady flow of recent reviews, owners responding to reviews, and a profile that stayed active — categories, photos, posts kept current.

"I already handle my Google profile."

Most owners have. What's rare is measuring whether it's actually working, everywhere you serve, every month.

What most owners did

  • Set up the profile once, a while ago
  • Added hours, photos, maybe a description
  • Never measured visibility outside their own neighborhood
  • Haven't touched it since

What Local Gravity does

  • Rebuilds categories, services, and descriptions Google actually reads
  • Publishes posts and photos on a set monthly cadence
  • Sends review requests and answers new reviews, good and bad
  • Re-scans your grid every month so you can see what moved

Looking fine and being measured are two different things — until you've actually run the scan.

How the Grid Scan works

01

Request your free scan

Tell us your business and the area you actually serve.

02

We check your ranking from dozens of points

Spread across your service area for the work you actually sell — not just one spot near your shop.

03

We show you the real picture

Exactly where you're visible and where you're not. No obligation to buy anything.

04

If you want it fixed, we manage it monthly

Profile optimization, posts, review generation, review responses, and a fresh scan every month to track progress.

One business per trade, per service area

We don't work two competitors in the same market. Once your trade is taken in your area, it's taken.

✓ A plumber and an HVAC company in the same city — both can be clients
✕ Two plumbing companies in the same service area — only one

What it costs

Flat monthly feeNo per-post or per-review charges.
No long-term contractLeave whenever you want.
No setup feePricing discussed only after you see your scan.

Questions people ask before they request a scan

What is a Grid Scan, exactly?▾

We check your Google Maps ranking from a grid of simulated searcher locations spread across your service area — not just one point next to your shop — for the services you actually sell.

Is it really free?▾

Yes, no obligation. Nothing changes on your profile at this stage. We're hoping that seeing the gaps makes you want help closing them, but the scan itself costs nothing either way.

How is this different from doing it myself?▾

You can absolutely manage your own profile. What most owners lack is the grid-wide measurement, the monthly re-scans, and the consistent review flow that separated the top-performing companies in our study from the rest.

How long until I see results?▾

Profile corrections show up within days. Ranking movement across the grid typically takes 60–90 days, and keeps building after that.

Do you guarantee rankings?▾

No. Nobody can guarantee a Google ranking — anyone who tells you otherwise is guessing. We commit to the work being done every month and reported honestly.

What if I'm not ready to buy anything?▾

That's fine. The scan has zero obligation. You keep the results either way.
