    Can A Local Business Make A Minor Name Change & Phone Number Change Using "Suggest An Edit" in Google Maps?

His website and local citations have been updated with the new name. If other Google accounts (preferably including a...

    I meant to post this earlier but here it is. About a week after following Joy's and Elizabeth's advice I received my client's Google appeal notice. It was approved! Thank you, Joy and Elizabeth!

    How should I request access to my client's GBP when he doesn't have a GBP listing?

    My client owns an established service business but has never set up, claimed, or done anything to create his Google Business Profile. It is not listed on Google to be claimed. He's an expert in his field but not comfortable with even the simple steps to start his GBP and then invite me to manage...

    With a client who wants to change his business hours to 24/7, is it vital that all his citations be updated with new hours?

    NAP, Name, Address, and Phone. However, many also include business hours. My client wishes to broaden his business hours to include 24/7 emergency welding services with exclusions. Exclusions include distance.

    Duplicate listing - Reported the usual ways. Google saying they can't help unless verified

    Thanks, I found it. It reads: "You're suggesting that Maps remove "business name" because it is private and doesn't allow public visitors. This includes personal places with no reception desks or public entrances." The "business name" is identical to my client's business name on his true...

    Duplicate listing - Reported the usual ways. Google saying they can't help unless verified

    I have almost the same issue as the OP. My client's GBP is fine. It's a SAB, with no address listed. He's a mobile welder with a workshop on his property. A second GBP with no content (except a Google Maps image of his home) suddenly appeared about a month ago. It lists his home address. It has...

    What Is The Best Way To Remove This Local SAB Duplicate GBP?

    Thank you for your response. Could you expand on: All three of these listings are marked "verified". We do control them all. The first listing is several miles outside the major city. It's fine but, of course, doesn't rank in the city where all his business prospects are. We plan to leave this...
