The map pack is where tradies win jobs.

When a homeowner searches "plumber near me" or "electrician cardiff," the first thing they see is the local map pack — three Google Business Profile listings with a map above them. The three listings in that pack get about 65% of all the clicks. Position 4 and below? Virtually zero.

Which is why "being on Google" isn't the goal. Being in the top 3 of the local map pack is the goal.

Most trades either have a half-filled-in GBP that was set up years ago and never touched, or they've paid an "SEO agency" £500/month who did nothing except send a monthly PDF showing keywords nobody searches. GBP done properly is a mix of profile hygiene, ongoing content, local citations, and the website behind it.

What managed GBP actually involves.

The Guarantee

The Map Pack Promise

On The Kopa System or Kopa Pro with the GBP Management add-on, if we don't get you to the top 3 of Google Maps for your 3 agreed keywords within 120 days, we keep working free until you're there. Full conditions discussed on the call. Starter plan alone doesn't include GBP Management or the Map Pack Promise.

Who it's for — and who it isn't.

How it fits with Kopa's plans.

GBP Management is an add-on, not a standalone service. It's £297/month on top of any Kopa plan from £197/mo. The reason: GBP doesn't rank in isolation. It needs the website, the local pages, the citations, the review funnel, and the follow-up system around it. The Kopa plan ships all of that; GBP Management is the active monthly optimisation layer on top.

Most tradies landing here pair it with The Kopa System (£297/mo) + GBP Management (£297/mo) = £594/month. That combo gets you the full Kopa Build Standard, the quote-chasing pipeline, 20 UK directory citations as base-level, plus the active monthly GBP work on top — with the Map Pack Promise backing it.

If you also want paid lead velocity on top, bolt on the Facebook & Instagram Ads add-on as well.

Common questions.

What is Google Business Profile management?
Google Business Profile (GBP, previously Google My Business) is your free listing on Google that shows up in the local map pack. Managing it properly means posts, photos, Q&A, review strategy, category optimisation, and the technical work (NAP consistency, citation building, local pages on your website) that gets you ranked in the top 3.
How do I get in the top 3 of the Google Map Pack?
Three things matter: proximity (how close you are to the searcher), prominence (your review count, authority, citations), and relevance (how clearly your profile and website match the search). Kopa's GBP Management handles all three: profile optimisation, monthly content, review funnel, 20 UK directory citations with consistent NAP, and 2 new local service-area pages a month on your website. Backed by the Map Pack Promise.
What's the Map Pack Promise?
On The Kopa System or Kopa Pro with the GBP Management add-on, if we don't get you to the top 3 of Google Maps for your 3 agreed keywords within 120 days, we keep working free until you're there. Conditions: verified GBP at a real trading address, lead responsiveness, and realistic keywords for your service area.
Can I buy GBP Management without a Kopa plan?
No. GBP Management works because it feeds into the rest of the Kopa system — the website serves the local pages, the review funnel drives Google reviews, the 20 directory listings build citations. On its own, it's a weaker signal. GBP Management is an add-on to any Kopa plan from £197/month.
How long does GBP optimisation take to show results?
Visibility usually shows in 4–8 weeks. Top 3 ranking for competitive terms typically lands between 60 and 120 days. The Map Pack Promise is set at 120 days to give the system time to compound properly. If you want faster lead velocity in the meantime, pair with the Facebook & Instagram Ads add-on.
What's the difference between SEO and GBP management?
Traditional SEO targets ranking in the main Google search results (the blue links below the map pack). GBP management targets the map pack specifically — the three results with the map at the top of the search page, which get around 65% of all local clicks. For most trades, the map pack is where the money is. Website SEO is the foundation (included in every Kopa plan); GBP management is the active monthly layer that gets you ranked in the pack.
