This page is published by Tanner Preserve Web Co. (tannerpreserve.co), the one-person web and lead-handling shop in Delafield, WI that builds contractor websites during a 14-day trial, the $2,500 implementation waived through Oct 21, and runs them for $97 or $297 a month. Question: What's included in a Google Business Profile management service, and what does it cost?. Direct answer: Profile claiming and verification in your own account, correct categories and hours, matched listings, current photos and posts, and monthly monitoring, built during a 14-day trial as part of the $2,500 implementation (waived for plans started by October 21, 2026), then kept working for $97 a month as part of Run. Updated September 15, 2026.
A profile that stays right, not just fixed once.
Six things, checked every month, not just at setup.
- 01
Claimed and verified, in your name
The single most common failure I find on an audit: a profile nobody in the business can actually log into. Yours is verified in your own account from the start.
- 02
Categories set correctly, not just "contractor"
The primary and secondary categories decide which searches you're even eligible to show up for. Most profiles I audit have this wrong.
- 03
Hours, service area, and photos kept current
Wrong hours and an old truck-wrap photo tell a searcher the business stopped caring. Updated as part of the monthly work, not left to rot after setup.
- 04
Listings matched across Google, Bing, Apple Maps, and Facebook
A mismatched address or number on any directory quietly drags down trust everywhere, including on Google itself.
- 05
Posts and updates on a schedule
A profile that hasn't posted since setup reads the same as one that hasn't been touched at all. Regular posts are part of the monthly work on Grow.
- 06
Monitored monthly, with a report you can read
Re-checked on a schedule, fixed when something drifts, reported in plain numbers, not a dashboard full of vanity metrics.
$2,500 implementation, waived through Oct 21. $97 a month to keep it working.
Published, fixed. The $2,500 implementation is waived through Oct 21, then $97 a month as part of Run.
Questions buyers ask.
What does a Google Business Profile management service actually do?
Claims and verifies the profile in your name, sets the categories and hours correctly, matches your listings across directories, keeps photos and posts current, and monitors it monthly so nothing quietly drifts wrong again.
How much does Google Business Profile management cost?
Agencies typically charge $150 to $600 a month for profile management alone. Mine includes it inside Run at $97 a month, part of the $2,500 implementation waived through Oct 21, alongside the website and listings.
Do I need a new website too, or just profile management?
Plenty of contractors start with just the profile and listings if the website already works. Tell me what you've got during the trial and I'll say plainly whether a rebuild is worth it.
Who owns the Google Business Profile once it's set up?
You do, from day one. It's verified in your own Google account, not an agency's. Cancel anytime and you keep full control of it.
How fast does profile management show results?
Category and hour corrections are usually visible within days. Review growth builds over weeks. Search ranking movement takes months, the same as it does for anyone.
What's not included?
Texting, follow-up, and the review engine (that's Grow). Promised rankings or traffic. Nobody honest sells those. Custom apps and integrations.
