BeeClean provides carpet and upholstery cleaning in New York. Cleaning is a classic 'need it now, search it once' service: a stain, a move-out, a landlord inspection, and the customer searches 'carpet cleaning near me' and calls whoever looks credible in the map results. New York adds a twist - the competition is enormous and franchise brands with hundreds of reviews dominate the listings. BeeClean had the service and the customers but no Google Business Profile, so it was competing for none of that demand.
We created the profile as a service-area business - cleaners travel to the customer - with the service area set to the boroughs and neighbourhoods the company covers. Keyword research for the profile identified the terms New Yorkers use: carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, rug cleaning, mattress cleaning, pet stain removal, move-out cleaning, plus neighbourhood names. Competitor analysis reviewed the companies ranking in those areas - franchises and independents - and identified where an independent could compete: responsiveness, specific services, photos of real work.
Categories were chosen to match the queries, with carpet cleaning as primary and upholstery and rug cleaning as secondaries. Services were created and described individually with keywords and pricing information where available, and the business description was written around the search terms, the service area and the company's proposition. Before-and-after photos of actual jobs were added and optimized - the most persuasive content a cleaning company can show.
A review campaign invited recent customers to share their experience, every review was checked and answered, and four keyword-based posts featured specific services and seasonal offers. The profile's positions for the target searches were monitored in the following weeks and services adjusted to match the queries generating views.
BeeClean gained a properly configured service-area profile with real photos, reviews and a complete service list - the credibility an independent cleaner needs to earn calls next to franchise brands in New York's map results.
Photos carried more weight on this profile than on almost any other. A cleaning company's claims are abstract until a customer sees a stained carpet next to the same carpet after the job, so we organized the photo set as pairs - before and after, same angle, same lighting - and labelled each with the service and the material. We also added photos of the equipment and the crew in uniform, which answers the unspoken question of whether the person arriving at the door is legitimate. In a city where letting a stranger into your apartment is a decision, that visual credibility drives calls.
