Boost · Google Maps Ranking
Top 3 on Google Maps in 6 months, or we work for free until you are.
When someone needs you today, they search, look at three businesses on a map, and call one. Boost puts every one of your locations in those three spots for the searches that turn into booked jobs — and we put that in writing.

Why the map pack
The three spots on the map are where local buyers choose.
You can rent attention one click at a time, or you can own the position people call from. At the median $127.74 an HVAC lead, a $5,000 month of Google Ads buys about 39 leads, and the meter resets on the first of the month. Boost puts you in front of every map search across a 10-mile radius, all day, with no per-click meter at all.

The map decides who gets the call
Someone with a dead furnace or a burst pipe searches, sees three businesses on a map, and calls one of them. They do not scroll. If you are fourth, you are not in the conversation, however good your reviews are.
Every location is its own fight
Google ranks each address on its own. A company with six locations is running six separate map battles, and a strong brand at headquarters does nothing for the branch that sits seventh across town.
Paying per click never builds anything
Ads and Local Services Ads put you above the map for as long as you keep paying. Stop, and you vanish the same day. The budget goes up every year and you own nothing at the end of it.
SEO retainers sell effort, not position
Most agencies bill monthly for activity: posts, citations, reports. Ask one to put the map position in writing and watch the conversation change. We put it in writing.
How Boost works
See it move before you pay for it.
We deliver Boost with a specialist Google Maps ranking partner. We handle everything you touch: the readiness check, your website, your reporting and your account. You deal with one team, ours.
Readiness check
We run every location through the Boost-ready checklist: a verified Google Business Profile at its own address, at least 10 genuine reviews, and a website that says what you do and where. If the website falls short, we build you a new one free.
Free 7-day trial
We pick 3 to 4 of your highest-value searches and run Boost on one location for 7 days at no cost, inside a 5-mile radius. You see the before-and-after rank grid before you spend a dollar.
Your keywords, your radius
We choose the "near me" and service-plus-city searches that actually turn into booked jobs, 10 or 20 per location, and run Boost across a 5- or 10-mile radius. The free trial needs nothing from you but your Google Maps listing link.
A rank grid every month
You get a map of your position on every keyword across your whole radius, location by location, every month. The same report we hold ourselves to for the guarantee.
60-second check
Are you Boost-ready? Five questions.
Answer honestly. We only take on locations we can rank, and this tells you where you stand before you book a call.

The Boost Guarantee
Six months. Top three. Or you stop paying and we keep working.
At least half of your agreed target searches will rank in the Google Maps top 3 across your agreed radius within 6 months of starting. If they do not, you pay nothing more for Boost until they do.
The 90-day checkpoint
At day 90 we compare your rank grid to the one from day 0. If your target searches have not improved, you pay nothing more until they do. If they are climbing, we keep going, and the full 6-month top-3 guarantee still applies.
- ✓Measured on the same monthly rank grid you receive. “Improved” means your average Google Maps position across your target searches is better at day 90 than at day 0.
- ✓Applies to each location that meets the qualifying requirements and stays current on its 6-month term.
- ✓Full terms in our Terms of Service.
Most marketing companies will not guarantee anything, so they never have to explain a miss. We guarantee the one number that decides whether your phone rings.
How Boost compares
Boost vs. what you are paying for now.
| BoostOffered by DMS | Google Ads incl. Local Services Ads | SEO retainer typical agency | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you pay for | ✓Your position on the map | Each click, win or lose | Hours of activity |
| Written guarantee | ✓Top 3 in 6 months, or we work free | None | Rarely, and never on map position |
| Commitment | ✓6 months, matched to a written guarantee | None, and nothing promised | Often a minimum term, nothing promised |
| Access needed | ✓Nothing for the trial; manager access to your Google profile after | Your ad account and budget | Usually full logins |

Is your business Boost-ready?
Run the checklist. Then let us fix what is missing.
We only take on locations we are confident we can rank. That is why we can guarantee it. Google ranks the profile, then checks the website to confirm what you do and where. Both have to hold up.
Your Google Business Profile
Required for every location.
- A verified Google Business Profile for each location
- A unique street address shown on the profile, not hidden and not a shared office or suite
- At least 10 genuine Google reviews
- The right primary category for what you sell
- The capacity to answer and book more calls
Your website
Not there yet? We fix it, or we build you a new one free.
- Every page title says what you do and where, like "Emergency HVAC Repair in Cherry Hill, NJ"
- A page for each core service you want to rank for
- Name, address and phone that match your Google profile exactly
- Your city and service area named on the site, not just in the footer
- Fast and readable on a phone
- Business details marked up for Google (LocalBusiness schema)
Website not ready?
We will build you a new one. Free.
If your website is what stands between you and the top 3, we do not send you off to fix it yourself. Start Boost and we build you a new site at no charge, so the guarantee starts on a foundation we know will hold. What it includes depends on your services and locations, so book a call and we will walk you through the details.
- ✓Built to our AI-Ready standard, so ChatGPT and Google’s AI can cite you too
- ✓A page for every service and location Boost targets
- ✓Calls and form leads routed to your phone and inbox in seconds
- ✓Launched before your Boost term starts

Straight Answers
Boost — Common Questions
What is Boost?
Boost is a Google Maps ranking service that Dapper Market Solutions offers and manages for its clients, delivered with a specialist Maps-ranking partner. It moves a business into the top 3 Google Maps results for the searches that bring it customers, across a 5- or 10-mile radius around each location. It comes with a written guarantee: at least half of your target searches in the Google Maps top 3 within 6 months, or we keep working at no charge until they are.
What if nothing improves in the first 90 days?
At day 90 we compare your rank grid to the one from day 0. If your average Google Maps position across your target searches has not improved, you pay nothing more for Boost until it does. If it is climbing, we keep going toward the full 6-month guarantee: at least half your target searches in the top 3.
What exactly does the guarantee promise?
At least half of your agreed target searches will rank in the Google Maps top 3 across your agreed radius within 6 months of starting. If they do not, you pay nothing more for Boost until they do. There is also a 90-day checkpoint: if your rankings have not improved by day 90, you stop paying until they do. The guarantee applies to locations that meet the qualifying requirements and stay current on their 6-month term, and the full terms are in our Terms of Service.
Is this Google Ads or Local Services Ads?
No. Boost works on your organic Google Maps position, the results that sit below the ads and that most people actually call. You can run ads alongside it, but you do not have to.
Do you need logins to my Google Business Profile or website?
Not for the free trial: we only need your Google Maps listing link. Once you start, we ask for manager access to your Google Business Profile and your Google Search Console, never your passwords. If your site needs changes so Google understands what you do and where, we make them, or we build you a new site free.
We have several locations. How does that work?
Google ranks each address separately, so each location gets its own keywords, its own radius and its own monthly rank grid. Multi-location operators are priced per location on the Regional plan.
How fast will we see movement?
In many markets rankings move inside the 7-day trial, which is why we offer it. The guarantee gives us 6 months because competitive markets and Google updates vary, and we would rather promise what we can always keep.
Can you remove negative reviews?
Nobody can delete a genuine Google review, and you should be wary of anyone who says they can. What we do: we flag reviews that break Google’s rules (fake, spam, off-topic, or from a competitor) and request their removal, and we help you earn more genuine 5-star reviews from the customers you already serve.
Will you work with our competitors?
No. We take one business per service category in each market. Once you are in, we do not sell Boost to a competitor in your radius.
What if my website is not ready for Boost?
We build you a new one at no charge when you start Boost. It is built to the same AI-Ready standard as the sites we sell, with a page for every service and location Boost targets, so Google can confirm what you do and where before the guarantee clock starts.
How much does Boost cost?
Boost is $2,500 per location per month for a 5-mile radius and 10 target searches, or $4,500 per location per month for a 10-mile radius and 20 target searches, on a 6-month term. Operators with three or more locations get a Regional quote. There is no setup fee, and every plan starts with a free 7-day trial.
How long is the commitment?
Six months per location. That is the time it takes to rank properly in a competitive market, and it is exactly the window the guarantee measures: if at least half your target searches are not in the top 3 by the end of it, you stop paying and we keep working until they are.
One business per market
Claim your market before a competitor does.
Once a business in your service and radius is on Boost, we do not take their competitor. Start with the free 7-day trial and see your own rank grid move.
