Guide section 01

Start with target accuracy

Confirm the business name, category, address, phone, website, hours and operational status before comparing performance.

Guide section 02

Use nearby competitors

Review volume and rating become more meaningful when compared with relevant businesses in the same market.

Guide section 03

Avoid invented rankings

A Maps position should only be stated if it was actually measured. Review and profile evidence can still reveal useful competitive gaps without pretending to know rank.

Guide section 04

Prioritize visible customer signals

Review volume, rating, category fit and accurate profile information are directly visible to prospective customers and useful in a sales conversation.

Guide principle

Keep evidence, ownership and the next action connected.

The strongest workflow is the one that lets the team understand why a lead matters, what happened, and what should happen next.
