Do before/after photos matter?
Yes — landscaping is one of the most visually reviewable
service-area trades, and photo-heavy reviews are common. Nothing about the card
changes what a customer chooses to post; it just makes leaving a review easier.
How is my coverage area defined?
You tell us the cities, counties, or zip codes you actually
service, and we set your Google service area to match — not a single pin on a
map.
How does verification work for a landscaping business?
As a service-area business, your base address stays hidden.
Google chooses how you verify; for a business like yours it's usually a short video of your setup rather than a mailed postcard.
Does this work for both recurring maintenance and one-time install jobs?
Yes — the card and profile work the same way for both. Recurring
clients tend to review consistency; one-time install clients tend to review the
finished result.
My reviews are scattered across other platforms too — does the report cover those?
The Intelligence Report is built from your Google reviews
specifically. Other platforms aren't included in this report.
Is there anything we should avoid asking customers about?
We never write scripts asking for specific star ratings or
content — that rule applies here just like every other vertical.
