Working York as a dry-cleaner
Working as a dry-cleaner in York you are competing for attention against 20-40 other businesses doing the same thing. Most of them have not put any effort into their Google profile. That is your opening.
Across the YO postcode area in York, dry-cleaners mostly handle suit pressing and curtain and upholstery cleaning. The neighbourhoods we see most dry-cleaner calls from in York are Fulford, Acomb and Heworth.
What We Do
Dry Cleaners in York are competing with 20-40 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy dry-cleaners from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. We don't sell you a thing and run. We run the entire online side of your business: Google listing, website, reviews, the lot. You get a monthly report and a phone number to text if anything is broken.
For dry-cleaners in York, the search terms that matter are not "dry-cleaner" on its own. The buying-intent searches are urgent variations like "stain removal" and "wedding dress cleaning". We target those exact phrases on your Google profile and on the dry-cleaner pages of your site.
If you cover suit pressing and curtain and upholstery cleaning as a dry-cleaner, your customers are searching for those exact words on Google before they call anyone. Dry Cleaners who match those phrases on their Google listing pick up the calls before the competitors do.
Why Dry Cleaners Lose Calls Around Here
Across the dry-cleaners we have spoken to in York, the same pattern keeps coming up. The dry-cleaners ranking in the top three of Google Maps for York get most of the calls. When you ask happy customers how they'd find someone like you, almost all of them say Google. So if Google isn't showing your business, the work goes to whoever it is showing. Doesn't matter how good you are at the actual job.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Our SEO work is opinionated. We do not chase every algorithm update. We focus on the things that have moved local rankings for the last decade: relevance to the search term, prominence (reviews and citations), and proximity to the searcher. Everything else is noise.
Missed-Call Text-Back
When the phone rings and you can't pick up, the customer's phone gets a text within 10 seconds. The text is short and human: a hello, an apology, a question about what they need. Most reply within five minutes. About a third book in.
Review Automation
The reply rate sits around 30% across our existing clients, which is roughly five to six times what owners get when they ask in person. Most owners forget to ask half the time anyway.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
One job from Google pays for the month. The price is £199 setup and £199 a month. Less than £6.70 a day. Cancel after the third month if it isn't working out.
What do you actually do every month?
We sort your Google Business Profile so it actually appears when locals search. We build you a website that loads fast on a phone. We get reviews coming in automatically after every job. We text customers back when you miss a call. And we send you a monthly report that shows what changed.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No. You do not need to do anything technical at any point. We handle the website, the Google profile, the SEO, the reviews, all of it. The only thing we ask for is information about your business and a few photos if you have them.
What if I already have a website?
Fine. We will migrate it over. The domain stays in your name. The content comes with it. The bits that work, we keep. The bits that do not, we replace.
How long until I see results?
Truthfully, we cannot put a number on it because every business is different. What we can tell you is what happened with our existing clients: most started seeing extra calls from Google within four to six weeks and meaningful ranking improvements by month three.
Can I cancel?
Three months is the minimum because that is how long it takes to do meaningful SEO work. After that you can leave whenever you want. Website yours, domain yours, no exit fees.
