A1For Aussie local business owners
I’m Daine. I teach Aussie business owners how to climb Google Maps: your Business Profile, your reviews, the lot. Plain English. Free.
B2The problem
Someone’s hot water dies at 7am. They grab their phone and search “plumber near me”.
Google shows them a map and three businesses. That’s the shortlist.
They don’t compare ten websites. They don’t read your About page. A lot of the time, they tap one of those three and call.
So if you’re sitting at number four, you’re not losing on price or quality. You’re losing before they even know you exist.
C3How Google decides
It’s not a secret algorithm you need to crack. Google publishes the three things it weighs up for local results.
“Local results are mainly based on relevance, distance and popularity.”
Google Business Profile Help ↗
How well your profile matches what someone searched. Your categories, your services, the words you use.
How far you are from the person searching. Unless you’re moving shop, this one is what it is.
How well-known and trusted you are. Google says more reviews and positive ratings can help your local ranking.
You can’t move your shop. You can fix the other two. That’s what I teach.
Categories, services, hours, descriptions. The stuff most people fill in once and never touch again.
How to get more without it being awkward, and how to reply to the bad ones without losing your cool.
Photos, posts and updates that show you’re open, busy and worth calling.
Making sure your site and your profile tell Google the same story.
D4Free video breakdown
Send me your Google profile. I’ll record a 5 to 10 minute video going through it: what’s working, what’s costing you calls, and the 3 fixes I’d do first.
What climbing looks like
Illustration“physio near me” · 25 spots
Each pin is a spot someone might search from. The number is where the business shows up in the map results there. Illustrative example, not a real business.
I can’t promise you a map like that. Nobody honestly can. What I can do is show you exactly what I’d fix, and why. Trades first, a handful a week.
Yes, look at mineNo card. No sales call. Just a video from me and one email a week.
E5The weekly email
Pop your email in and the next one comes to you.
G’day,
Quick one this week, and it takes about two minutes.
Open Google Maps and search your main service plus your suburb. Look at the top three. Under each business name there’s a category.
Now check yours. If theirs says “Physiotherapist” and yours says “Health consultant”, that could be part of why they’re above you.
Here’s how to change it…
F6Who’s this guy?
I’ve spent years working with small business owners. Franchisees across Queensland and the NT, my own local service business on the Gold Coast, and plenty of owners in between.
And I’m sick of what they get bombarded with.
Hi mate! I can get you 3 new clients this month or it’s FREE. Reply YES
Quick question about your Google ranking…
Never miss a call again. Try our AI receptionist, it’ll save you 20 hours a week!
Just following up on my last message :)
Sound familiar? Made-up examples
A lot of it comes from people who get paid whether it works for you or not. And they keep what they actually do vague, because if you understood it, you wouldn’t need them.
So I’m doing the opposite. I’m sharing how it actually works, free. How to get found on Google Maps, step by step, in plain English. Do it yourself, hand it to someone on your team, or pay someone. Your call. At least it’s a real choice, not picking the least-bad leech.

Yep. The video breakdown, the weekly emails, all of it. No card, no catch.
That’s exactly who I write for. If you can post on Facebook, you can do everything I teach. Every fix comes with the steps.
Perfect time to start. Request a breakdown anyway and tell me you’re not on there yet. I’ll show you what to set up first, in order.
Yes. Service-area businesses can hide their address and still show up. I’ll cover how to set that up properly.
Anywhere in Australia. Google plays by the same rules in Perth as it does in Parramatta.
At the end of your breakdown I’ll offer to fix it for you. No pressure, no call. Most owners do it themselves, and the video and emails give you the steps to do that, free. Unsubscribing is one click.
Only if you tick the box on the form. I’ll blur your business details unless you say otherwise, and I’ll check with you again before anything goes up.
Once a week. Short enough to read before your coffee goes cold.
They’re not better than you. They’re just easier to find. Send me your profile and I’ll show you why.
