Why Customers Google Your Business Before They Call You

Every potential client searches your business name before they make contact. Here is what they find, why it matters, and what to do about it.

Before any serious client calls a new business, they search it online. This is not a theory. It is what people do. Even if they received your number from a trusted friend, they will still search your business name before they dial.

The Search Test

When a prospective client searches your business name, they are running a quick test. Does this business have a proper website? Does the website look professional? Does the business email match the domain? Is there any information about who runs this business?

If you pass the test, they call. If you fail it, they usually do not. They may look at two or three alternatives in the next few minutes and contact the one that impressed them most online.

At ACKINGLOBAL, we build the infrastructure that makes new businesses pass the Google test every time. Apply for a free audit within 48 hours.
