Google Maps management for multi-location brands and dealer networks
Be the pin customers pick.
Google Maps is where customers decide whether to visit. Across a network, listing accuracy degrades quietly: duplicates, old hours, moved stores. Locus Intelligence manages every Maps listing centrally, tracks where each one ranks, and shows where demand is captured and where it leaks.

What it does
Four things Maps management should do.
Bulk updates across the network
Change address, phone, hours, categories and photos for every location from one place, with a brand-standard photo library.
Duplicates found and suppressed
Duplicate and unclaimed listings are detected and handled, so one pin stands for one location and the reviews are not split.
Rank tracked by location
See where each listing ranks around it, not just at one point, and how that changes after each fix.
From Maps to the door
Maps gets the customer to the door. A location page and a tracked call button turn the visit into a measured action.

FAQ
Google Maps management, answered.
What is Google Maps management?
Keeping every location accurate and competitive on Google Maps: correct data, no duplicates, strong photos and reviews, and a way to see where each one ranks.
How is it different from Google Business Profile management?
The profile is the record Google holds. Maps management is the outcome: where that location appears and whether customers choose it. In practice the two are managed together.
How does Google decide the map pack?
By relevance, distance and prominence. Relevance and prominence are the parts you can work on.
Do dealers need access?
No routine access. Head office manages listings centrally, and dealers can be given a view of their own scores.
Does it cover platforms other than Google?
Google Maps is the focus. Reach by Locus Intelligence also keeps listings on other directories in step.
