For local SEO agencies
Proof that the rankings moved, without the monthly scramble
You already know local SEO works. The hard part is showing a plumber in month four that it is working, in a way that survives him checking his own phone from his kitchen.
The problem
What actually slows you down
Not the work itself — the administration around it.
- "I googled myself and I'm not there."
- He searched from home, six miles outside the service area, signed into his own account. A geo grid answers this properly: the same keyword checked from a grid of points across the area, colour-coded by position. One picture ends the conversation.
- Reporting eats the first three days of every month
- Rankings in one tool, GA4 in another, call tracking in a third, then an hour in a slide deck per client. Here the scans, audits, leads and sold jobs already belong to the client record, and the monthly Progress Report assembles itself — with an alert when the client opens it.
- Prospects don't believe a generic pitch
- Run a Sales Report on the prospect before the call: nine grades, the revenue competitors are taking from them, and fixes ranked by value. You'll know the moment they open it — and a CSV of 100 prospects runs in one go.
- Onboarding stalls waiting on Google access
- One onboarding link gets your agency added to their Business Profile, Google Ads, Analytics and Tag Manager automatically, and guides them through Search Console — at the roles you choose, never owner. No passwords over text.
- Every research tool is another seat licence
- Keyword research, rank tracking, backlink audits and competitor ad research are in the platform, billed by the scan out of a monthly credit balance rather than per user.
What you get
The parts that matter for this work
Geo grid scans
Maps, Local Finder and organic rankings from up to 441 points, to the top 100, shareable as a live link.
Keyword research & tracking
Volume, difficulty and local intent, then ongoing tracking per client and location.
Backlinks and link gaps
Audit a profile, then find the sites linking to competitors but not to your client.
15 SEO audits
Business Profile, website, keyword gap, share of voice, AI visibility and backlinks — graded and shareable.
Client reporting
Progress and geo-grid reports on your branding, with leads and revenue from search, and opened alerts.
Client portal
A login of their own showing progress and lead counts, which is what renewal actually turns on.
In practice
A month with a local service client
The same loop, run without anyone assembling anything by hand.
- 1
Onboard once
Send the onboarding link. The client connects their Google and Meta accounts and your agency is added at the level you asked for — never owner.
- 2
Baseline the map
Run a geo grid on the two or three keywords that actually bring work. Share the link. That picture is your before.
- 3
Run the process
Start your SOP for the month — GBP posts, citations, content, links. It becomes tasks with owners and dates, on the client's board.
- 4
Re-scan and compare
Run the grid again and compare the two scans. Movement is visible rather than asserted.
- 5
Report without assembling
The Progress Report pulls the scans, rankings, reviews, leads and revenue already attached to the client. The client can also just open the portal or the app.
Show the map, not the number
Set up your workspace, add a client and run your first geo grid — the monthly credits cover it.
