Hey Ben - thanks for the tips. I had not thought about doing a depreciating base. One main thing I am curious about is what is the going rate for base and/or total comp right now as well. My research tells me somewhere between $50k-$65k base with a total comp potentially in the $80k-$115k range.

Been in biz for 10+ years and looking to finally hire a Business Development Manager (based in the US). Web Design, Local SEO, etc. I've got everything ready to go for the job posting but wanted to hear from others about their recent experience. Couple questions: What are the common...

@AndrewbTree not sure if you have more than one page on your website but I don’t see a menu on the site from mobile. My guess.. if you don’t have many pages, you might benefit from adding more. More times than not, I’d assume a website with “helpful content” would probably have more than one page.

We just had every single client on our agency account suspended on GMB. I feel so bad for the ~50 small local businesses that rely on us and I'm looking for some advice on how others have resolved this the quickest. I have already reached out to support via email to try and resolve but I have a...

@keyserholiday so what's the next best step for changing/reporting keyword-stuffed listings? I've been trying to suggest edit and clean up some moving related ones for months with no luck.

We're seeing 3 completely different SABs in the moving industry in different parts of the US that had #1 Google Maps ranking for 2+ years for a handful of popular keywords all get knocked from the top 3 in the last week. Many of our clients in this industry saw no change though. We made 0...

Hey @WesMichy thank you for the reply. It does help and gives me an idea of how long to wait for a response. I've done most of what you have already mentioned, but I do think I could have added more details in the "notes" section. I'll remember to share more in-depth details next time.

I’m curious your thoughts on how common it is for a complaint through the Redressal Complaint Form to get approved. To be more specific, this is a service area business that had a verified address at an auto parts store and they are in the moving and storage industry. Not sure if it helps, but...

Yes @keyserholiday even users who have purchased his "deal" on the KC listing have been filtered. One customer even checked-in, got an email from Yelp soliciting a review (kind of ironic that they send those) a few days later, clicked that link, wrote a review, and boom filtered. I'm at a bit of...

Hi @Colan Nielsen, yes, that is why he has 37 filtered reviews. In there, you'll see quite a few 5 stars from the past couple years. He's tried every method that we know and they're always filtered. We've told real local yelp users to: - search Yelp for "movers" in "overland park" and click...

I have a long-time moving company client that has had issues with Yelp for years. We've all tried everything we can think of to clean up their reputation. BACKGROUND: Their reputation is flawless everywhere else (Google, Facebook, etc) and they have multiple locations (Kansas City and Overland...

Hey, @Paul Kargo I'm curious if you have any case studies or proof that this is the case?

Good find. I have been connecting clients with Podium for the last couple years and they give us a "recent reviews" embed code. This might be a good solution on how to showcase plugins for clients not using Podium. Do you have any website examples where you've been using it? Would like to...

I have a client that just opened a 2nd location (plano) 2-3 months ago for his BMW repair shop. His 1st location (dallas) shows up just fine on Google maps and organically. The issue is when you search "bmw repair plano" he's pulling up organically already. However, if you go to Google Maps, he...

Looks to me like it got taken care of very quickly. Thanks forum for sending me in the right direction.
