Why it matters
Wrong hours, a vague category or a profile with no recent reviews or photos can quietly keep you off the short list that nearby customers compare.
A few minutes on a schedule keeps your profile accurate: reply to reviews, send your review link after every job, add photos and set holiday hours ahead of time.
